asked on

apache server

i try to install apache_1.3.6 but....

# ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/bin/apache
Configuring for Apache, Version 1.3.6
 + using installation path layout: Apache (config.layout)
 + Warning: no Perl interpreter available for support scripts.
 + Perhaps you have to select one with --with-perl=FILE.
Creating Makefile
Creating Configuration.apaci in src
Creating Makefile in src
 + configured for Solaris 270 platform
 + setting C compiler to cc
 + setting C pre-processor to cc -E
 + checking for system header files
./Configure: make: not found
 + adding selected modules
./helpers/TestCompile: make: not found
 + doing sanity check on compiler and options
** A test compilation with your Makefile configuration
** failed. This is most likely because your C compiler
** is not ANSI. Apache requires an ANSI C Compiler, such
** as gcc. The above error message from your compiler
** will also provide a clue.
 Aborting!                              

can anyone help?

# I aggree, this site is not intuitive
i sent this to my server via ftp and tried to gunzip it
but it said its not in gzip format!!!

(i sent it in ascii and also in binary but neither worked!)
probably ist just tar format
FYI, sometimes the browser request the server to (g)unzip the file first, before sending; unfortunately the browser still gets the file with the extension .gz (which does mean nocthing on UNIX ;-)
# mv apache-1_3_6-sol7-sparc-local.gz apache-1_3_6-sol7-sparc-local_tar
# tar -xvf apache-1_3_6-sol7-sparc-local_tar
tar: directory checksum error
#                      
hmm, did you get it with the browser, or ftp?
I had no problems with it.
browser....
try getting again, probably with ftp instead of browser
