Unable to build Apr-util - missing rules.mk

[David Tran <dt...@yahoo-inc.com>]

Hi,

 

I am not very familiar with APR and APR-utils. I ran configure, make,
and make install on apr fine, but when I try to make/make install
apr-utils, it can't find the file build/rules.mk

Specified in the generated Makefile. Can anyone tell me what I'm doing
wrong or give a good pointer for a newbie? Thanks!

Try specifying the location of APR on the apr-util configure, like:

./configure --with-apr=PATH

If you did that and it still doesn't work, review the APR-util build  
instructions for anything that you missed and then try asking on user@apr.apache.org 
  and provide much more detail on the system.  user@apr.apache.org  
will have experience on a wider range of platforms than log4cxx-user@logging.apache.org 
  and is the right venue for apr-util build problems.
