[users@httpd] Compilation problem with mod_rewrite.c for Apache/1.3.27

[Bernd Feucht <be...@bernd-feucht.de>]

When enabling mod_rewrite for Apache/1.3.27, the compilation fails.

My system: Linux 2.4.19 (SuSE 8.1) with gcc 3.2.

I've done the following:

./configure --enable-module=rewrite
-> Output contains:

     + adding selected modules
        o rewrite_module uses ConfigStart/End
     + using -ldb1 for DBM support
          enabling DBM support for mod_rewrite

make
-> Output contains:

    ===> src/modules/standard
    gcc -c  -I../../os/unix -I../../include   -DLINUX=22
    -I/usr/include/db1 -DUSE_HSREGEX -DUSE_EXPAT -I../../lib/expat-lite
    `../../apaci` mod_rewrite.c
    In file included from mod_rewrite.c:93:
    mod_rewrite.h:136:18: ndbm.h: No such file or directory
    mod_rewrite.c: In function `lookup_map_dbmfile':
    mod_rewrite.c:2876: `DBM' undeclared (first use in this function)
    mod_rewrite.c:2876: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
    mod_rewrite.c:2876: for each function it appears in.)
    mod_rewrite.c:2876: `dbmfp' undeclared (first use in this function)
    mod_rewrite.c:2877: `datum' undeclared (first use in this function)
    mod_rewrite.c:2877: parse error before "dbmkey"
    mod_rewrite.c:2882: `dbmkey' undeclared (first use in this function)
    mod_rewrite.c:2885: `dbmval' undeclared (first use in this function)
    make[4]: *** [mod_rewrite.o] Error 1

The configure script seems to determine that DBM support for mod_rewrite 
can be enabled, but then make fails to find a header file (<ndbm.h>) for 
that. By adding "#define NO_DBM_REWRITEMAP" at the beginning of 
src/modules/standard/mod_rewrite.h, the compilation runs through without 
problems.


Looking forward for your help.
Thanks.

Bernd
