RE: HPUX : E000002 - libapr

["Bailey, Mark" <ma...@ee.co.uk>]

Thanks Philip,

Your solution worked fine.

It reverted to using mktemp on the HPUX platform so we changed the libapr source as suggested which indeed fixed the issue and used the internal mkstemp......

The fix was as below if anybody else comes access this issue on HPUX.....

file_io/unix/mktemp.c


Insert the following lines (comment as you please !)

/*
* Force the use of internal temporary filename creation.
* Do not use mktemp() of mkstemp() due to  restriction of
* 26 filenames on HP-UX
*/
#undef HAVE_MKSTEMP

before line 56, which is currently...

#ifndef HAVE_MKSTEMP


You should end up with a section like this

#include "apr_portable.h" /* for apr_os_file_put() */
#include "apr_arch_inherit.h"

#undef HAVE_MKSTEMP
#ifndef HAVE_MKSTEMP

#if defined(SVR4) || defined(WIN32) || defined(NETWARE)
#ifdef SVR4
#if HAVE_INTTYPES_H







Thanks, Mark....

APR uses mkstemp() rather than mktemp() but that probably makes no difference.  APR also has custom code that can be used when mkstemp() is not available so rebuilding APR to to use that would be a workaround.

Can you please let the APR project know about this? See http://apr.apache.org
 
If possible, please send them a patch to fix the issue for good.
If APR's configure script detects HPUX it should ensure that HAVE_MKSTEMP is not defined.

Thanks.
