[Speedycgi-users] Build problems on HP-UX 10.20

[Claus B. <cla...@co...>]

Hi all,

I'm new to the list and to SpeedyCGI, so in case this question was asked 
before, forgive my ignorance. (I browsed the archives, but didn't find 
relevant previous postings on the subject.)

I'm trying to build SpeedyCGI on an HP-UX 10.20 system. Configuration data:

- HP-UX 10.20
- HP cc compiler
- Perl 5.8.0
- Apache 1.3.20
- SpeedyCGI 2.11

Makefile generation works fine using "perl Makefile.PL". When I run 
'make', I first run into an error linker in the speedy_backend 
directory. The Makefile there uses options such as "-Wl,-E" in the 
command line for ld which the linker doesn't grok. After fixing that (by 
changing "-Wl,-E" to "-E"), the build proceeds a little further, but 
then bails out when trying to link the speedy_backend executable. The 
message which I get is "Unsatisified symbols: $global$ (data)".

Some documentation I found on this error message leads me to think that 
it might mean that this symbol is not properly exported from some file 
and therefore cannot be found. The recommendations I found mentioned 
using the linker option "-E" to export all symbols, but this is already 
done for the SpeedyCGI file, as it seems, so I'm scratching my head now 
and could use a little help 8-)

I've tried this on two different HP-UX systems, with various versions of 
Perl. Same problem everywhere. Anybody here who managed to build 
SpeedyCGI on HP-UX before?

Thanks!

   Claus
