Hi,
I downloaded a code from:

http://stein.cshl.org/~lstein/talks/perl_conference/apache_api/hello_world.html

which I am trying to compile on my Windows xp machine. I have installed following on my system:
1. Apache server
2. Cygwin
3. Perl

but when i use make command i get a error: make not found.
So i tried just: apxs -c mod_hello.c command at the command prompt: i got error:

===============================================

Can anyone tell me what I am missing. If I am missing MAKE command then i didnt find it on my system. I read somewhere that cygwin is required for running make but installing cygwin didnt help me though.

thanks

That module has been written against Apache 1.3 and won't work to compile it against Apache 2.0 nor 2.2
OTOH the paramters for the compiler are for VC++ and not gcc.

the tutorial is from 1999, but better download httpd-2.2.17-win32-src.zip and take a look on mod_example

using VC++ on the command line is easy. (that are single lines without a linebreak you might see)

del *.obj *.exp *.lib *.so

set APACHE="C:\Program Files\Apache Group\Apache2"

cl /nologo /MD /O2 /LD /W3 -DWIN32 -D_WIN32 -I%APACHE%\include /c /Fomod_eaxmple.obj mod_eaxmple.c

link /NODEFAULTLIB:LIBCMT kernel32.lib "%APACHE%\lib\libhttpd.lib" "%APACHE%\lib\libapr-1.lib" "%APACHE%\lib\libaprutil-1.lib" /nologo /subsystem:windows /dll /out:mod_example.so mod_example.obj

MT -manifest mod_example.so.manifest -outputresource:mod_example.so;2



You compile many third party modules this way.

it seems you ran all commands in a single line? Hm might be an issue do posting the stuff and line breaks.

it is ok that there is only the object file after running cl. The linker will create the .so file (.dll).

I hope that's not an Apache.org (vc6) version sitting in
C:\Program Files\Apache Group\Apache2.2

He looks to be using vc10.

Yes I ran the CL and LINK command together.
Obj file is getting created but Link command is giving me error.

I changed the LINK command as I was unable to find the libraries(libaprutil-1.lib and libapr-1.lib on my system so I changed the

link /NODEFAULTLIB:LIBCMT kernel32.lib "C:\Program Files\Apache Group\Apache2\lib\libhttpd.lib" "C:\Program Files\Apache Group\Apache2\lib\libapr.lib" "C:\Program Files\Apache Group\Apache2\lib\libaprutil.lib" /nologo /subsystem:windows /dll /out:mod_example.so mod_example.obj

I got error : LINK : fatal error LNK1104: cannot open file 'MSVCRT.lib'

I searched the file and its present @ D:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\VC\lib.
I added this in the PATH. But same error.

I also tried compiling the code in the VC2008 thats installed on my ssytem by the using the existing project file mod_example.dsp in the httpd package but got link error:

Please note that I added the paths required for compilation.

Basically I want write C++ modules for Apache. Please also let me know if some document is available for it. But yes firstly the above issue is blocking for me.

OK, to me it looks like you are trying to build mod_example from 2.2.17 against Apache 2.0.x, this is not going to work because Apache 2.0 has a different structure than Apache 2.2 and that 2.0 was built on VC6, not VC9 (2008) or VC10 (2010)

I'd suggest downloading the 2.2.17 from here, and put somewhere on your hard drive, say c:\Apache22

What you will see is these apr*-1.lib files & libhttpd.lib in c:\Apache22\lib

I modified James' command a little as well as fixed a spelling error in the cl line.
http://www.apachehaus.net/mebuild.txt

Now in VC2008,
Setting environment for using Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 x86 tools.

C:\build9\httpd-2.2.17>cd modules\experimental

C:\build9\httpd-2.2.17\modules\experimental>set APACHE=C:\Apache22

C:\build9\httpd-2.2.17\modules\experimental>cl /nologo /MD /O2 /W3 -DWIN32 -D_WIN32 -I %APACHE%\incl

ll /out:mod_example.so mod_example.obj
Creating library mod_example.lib and object mod_example.exp

At last compiled but i need to change the LINK command to add: oldnames.lib and msvcrt.lb path explicitly.

link /NODEFAULTLIB:LIBCMT kernel32.lib "%APACHE%\lib\libhttpd.lib" "%APACHE%\lib\libapr-1.lib" "%APACHE%\lib\libaprutil-1.lib" "D:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\VC\lib\msvcrt.lib" "D:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\VC\lib\oldnames.lib" /nologo /subsystem:windows /dll /out:mod_example.so mod_example.obj

although this: D:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\VC\lib\ path is in PATH and LIBPATH env variables.

mod_example.so was created successfully. I copied it manually to the C:\Apache2.2\modules and then edited the httpd.conf and added a line:

LoadModule example_module modules/mod_example.so

and also added:

<Location /example-info>
SetHandler example-handler
</Location>

at the bottom of this file. Restatred the server and wrote:
http://localhost/example_info in the browser but got Page not found

My apache is working fine as http://localhost/ shows me "It Works" on the page.

Please let me know what error i made. Can you also please let me know how to write modules in C++.


Thanks

Hi sam,

I am not quite sure why it is not working, check your error log for any hint. If it 404s, there is something in there about it.

LIBPATH, I found I also have an ENV for just LIB
LIB = C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\VC\LIB;C:\Program Files\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v6.0A\lib;

You may want to add it to your system. It should be there when you open a VC++ 2008 command prompt.

As far as being much help in actually writing a module, I'm not there yet in my knowledge of how it all works. There is the module developers mailing list I think, I'm sure they could help you out.
