Re: Help on Apache 2.0.43 + SSL installation

I'm cc:ing the users list so that the response is in the archives in case
anyone else has a similar problem.

Hmmm... well honestly I'm not all that familiar with linker problems on
Solaris. I have heard a number of people report problems getting the
shared library build of openssl to work on Solaris, though that's about as
much insight as I can offer. The option to use both a static openssl and
a static mod_ssl remains, of course, and at this point sounds like your
best option.

"httpd -l" will list all the statically-compiled modules.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

....though this right here tells me you've built it as shared, since that's
what that means. :)

For the openssl compile (with gcc) use:

/config --prefix=3D shared threads no-idea '-fPIC'


Then build Apache 2.x:

/configure --with-layout=3DApache --prefix=3D/depot/apache2 \
--enable-mods-shared=3Dmost \
--with-ssl=3D \
--enable-ssl=3Dshared

make ; make install

Note when using gcc on Solaris you may run across a dependency on libgcc.a
(__floatdisf, --floatdidf,...).

Set SH_LDFLAGS=3D`gcc -print-libgcc-file-name` ; ./configure...

This shlould be all you need.

Note: Use the linker (ld) in /usr/ccs/bin
