pcre +universal fails to build

[jenoworld@…]

Hello,

I am new to MacPorts and I have a similar issue as Ticket #18448. I am trying to install/build an universal version of Apache, MySQL, and PHP using MacPorts on my test machine (Mac OS X 10.4.11, PPC) so that I can migrate it to the actual production server after I've done testing.

command that I am running: port -d install apache2 +universal

The error that I am getting:

Please use the WikiFormatting for future copy/pasting of output. Thanks.

[nerdling (Jeremy Lavergne)]

Jenoworld, since the ticket you referenced (#18448) has been resolved, have you tried doing the following?

1. sudo port selfupdate
2. sudo port clean apache2

• and possibly uninstall, clean, and reinstall readline and ncurses

[jenoworld@…]

Thanks for the fast respond and sorry for messing the post (without using WikiFormatting).

I'm not sure if #18448 has been resolved because I can't see any fixes or solution posted in the ticket. Please forgive my ignorance, I have no experience with programming nor Terminal. I am totally new to MacPorts. I decided to give MacPorts a try after having a lot of problem with the all-in-one software package such as MAMP.

So, what should I do now? Do I have to uninstall everything and start all over again? or just reinstall readline and ncurses (or pcre?)

Thank you.

When I check my installation by doing $ sudo installed, this is what I have:

The following ports are currently installed:
apr @1.3.5_0+universal (active)
apr-util @1.3.7_0+universal (active)
bzip2 @1.0.5_2+universal (active)
db46 @4.6.21_5+universal (active)
expat @2.0.1_0+universal (active)
gperf @3.0.4_0+universal (active)
libiconv @1.13_0+universal (active)
ncurses @5.7_0+universal (active)
ncursesw @5.7_0+universal (active)
openssl @0.9.8k_0+universal (active)
readline @6.0.000_1+universal (active)
sqlite3 @3.6.15_0+universal (active)
zlib @1.2.3_2+universal (active)


Since I am installing Apache by using $ port -d install apache2 +universal. I am assuming that all this parts/module is "packaged" together with Apache2 installation (which is required). If I reinstall readline and ncurses manually, obviously I am breaking the whole automation installation process, how am I going to continue back with the rest of the Apache2 installation?


Thanks.

Cc Me!

[mf2k (Frank Schima)]

It appears you are having trouble building pcre +universal. That's a dependency of apache2. Assigning to the maintainer of pcre. It would also be helpful to know what version of Xcode you are running?

[nox@…]

Please try sudo port -v build pcre configure.ldflags="-L/opt/local/lib -lncurses"

[nox@…]

Oops, nevermind my last message, I forgot something.

[nox@…]

I've committed a wannabe fix in r52496. Please tell me if it worked.

[nerdling (Jeremy Lavergne)]

I have these +universal successful compilations:

• ppc, i386 on intel 10.5, target 10.5
• ppc, i386 on intel 10.5, target 10.4u

[jenoworld@…]

I am runnning Xcode 2.5 (Install 2.2 from my OS X installation disc and upgrade it to 2.5 using installer downloaded from Apple's website)

[jenoworld@…]

sudo port -v build pcre configure.ldflags="-L/opt/local/lib -lncurses" give me this:

Error: Requested variants do not match original selection.
Please perform 'port clean pcre' or specify the force option.
Error: Status 1 encountered during processing.

FYI

[jenoworld@…]

After performing $ sudo port clean pcre. I was able to perform sudo port -v build pcre configure.ldflags="-L/opt/local/lib -lncurses".

I will report back after It finish running.

[nerdling (Jeremy Lavergne)]

MacPorts asked you to run clean because you were no longer using the +universal variant.

[jenoworld@…]

Replying to snc@…:

MacPorts asked you to run clean because you were no longer using the +universal variant.

Oh? It finished successfully without any error but I am not getting the +universal version. Is there any possibility to get the universal version so that It will work on Intel?

[jenoworld@…]

Replying to nox@…:

May I know how do I perform this test?

Replying to jenoworld@…:

You run the same command again, but add +universal to the end.

Replying to jenoworld@…:

Run port selfupdate, and then rebuild the port.

Note, you don't need +universal to work on Intel-based Macs, +universal usually builds for Intel and PowerPC (unless you've modified your macports.conf to change that). If you just need it built for your machine, +universal is completely unnecessary.

So does that mean that It is not necessary for me to have +universal build although I am working with an PPC now and will migrate it to an Intel Mac Xserve later?

[jenoworld@…]

I don't see that I have pcre installed:

The following ports are currently installed:
  apr @1.3.5_0+universal (active)

  bzip2 @1.0.5_2+universal (active)

  sqlite3 @3.6.15_0+universal (active)
  zlib @1.2.3_2+universal (active)

How am I continue with the rest of the Apache installation?
Since you have a fix in r52496. Would you recommend that I uninstall all ports (sudo port -f uninstall installed) and start all over again?

Replying to jenoworld@…:

If the Xserve is running the same major version of Mac OS X (10.4 in this case) as your PowerPC machine, then that should work, but if you also use a newer OS (10.5 or if after September, 10.6) then you'll need to redo all your MacPorts stuff anyway.

r52496 was an update to pcre itself, so you'll need to first run sudo port selfupdate to make sure you have the changes from that commit, then try your original install again.

Thanks guys. I've just reinstall Apache2 +universal and pcre +universal works!

Found a similar Apache2 error at #19595: build failure apache2 + openldap variant.

They both shared the same line of error msg:

Error: Target org.macports.configure returned: configure failure: shell command " cd "/opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_ports_www_apache2/work/httpd-2.2.11" && ./configure --prefix=/opt/local/apache2 --with-apr=/opt/local/bin/apr-1-config --with-apr-util=/opt/local/bin/apu-1-config --libdir=/opt/local/lib --with-expat=/opt/local --with-pcre=/opt/local --mandir=/opt/local/share/man --enable-mods-shared=all --enable-ssl --with-ssl=/opt/local --enable-cache --enable-disk_cache --enable-file_cache --enable-mem_cache --enable-deflate --enable-proxy --enable-proxy-connect --enable-proxy-http --enable-proxy-ftp --disable-dependency-tracking " returned error 1

Also found a similar error at Installing PHP5: "Error, SSL/TLS libraries were missing or unusable" which shared the same line of error code:

configure: error: ... Error, SSL/TLS libraries were missing or unusable

I dint see any solution to this in the post.

[nox@…]

At least, the PCRE problem is fixed. I'm closing this ticket.

[jenoworld@…]

Thanks. I will make a new ticket for this.
