Re: v1.5 on XP fails to load mod_axis2.dll
Hi Peter,
Hmm, this is a complete mystery to me - I've just trawled the code and can
find no instance of "AXIS_HOME" being used anywhere - this is the old
value we used to use before we changed it to AXISCPP_DEPLOY.
What version of the code are you using - I'm guessing recent ?
AND could someone else help here please - I'm bemused !
I'm afraid I don't run the apache version of the server but simple-axis
server doesn't require this env var.
cheers,
John.

Re: v1.5 on XP fails to load mod_axis2.dll
Thanks to Stephane for emailing me to confirm that he
has had the same troubles. He also found the main
problem: The install instructions
(http://ws.apache.org/axis/cpp/wininstall-guide.html)
are missing a crucial instruction.
Thanks for the kindness of strangers!
To complete the install:
=> Add another environnment variable:
AXIS_HOME=[Axis_Folder]
Note that this is the same value as for
AXISCPP_DEPLOY.
After this change, I restarted the Apache Service
Monitor, and apache started right up, and I was able
to run the calculator client application.
NOTE TO THE ADMINISTRATORS: Please either update the
install documentation or explain to me (via private
email please) how you want to work with me to have me
do it.

We need to revisit the docs for sure. That will save time on the part of
both users as well as developers.

Hmm, it always used to be that new shells do get to see the changes but
services did not - as they are in the kernel process (or whatever the name
is in Windows!).

Definitely not required, as my environment changes
would show up in any new shell that I launched after
the changes. Note that any existing shells and
programs still see the environnment prior to the
change.
This was my reasoning in stopping the server and
monitor in between changes.

phew - I'm not going mad !
I can't remember whether reboot is still required for env vars in windows
or not (it always used to be required!) - I think most people use a batch
script to start apache ?

So I removed the definition of the AXIS_HOME
environment variable, rebooted, and axis still works!
I'm puzzled. I was careful to shut down the apache
server and exit the Apache Service Monitor between
changes, thinking that this was all that was needed.
Is it possible that some environment settings are not
seen until a reboot? Maybe due to some service staying
resident? Perhaps it was the reboot that helped?
I now have Apache working with axis-C++ from built
sources on both win2k and winXP.
