| <h2><a name="requirements" id="requirements">Requirements</a></h2> |
| |
| |
| |
| <p>Compiling Apache requires the following environment to be |
| properly installed:</p> |
| |
| <ul> |
| <li> |
| <p>Disk Space</p> |
| <p>Make sure you have at least 50 MB of free disk space |
| available. After installation Apache requires approximately |
| 10 MB of disk space, plus space for log and cache files, |
| which can grow rapidly. The actual disk space requirements |
| will vary considerably based on your chosen configuration and |
| any third-party modules or libraries.</p> |
| </li> |
| |
| <li> |
| <p>Microsoft Visual C++ 5.0 or higher.</p> |
| <p>Apache can be built using the command line tools, or from |
| within the Visual Studio IDE Workbench. The command line |
| build requires the environment to reflect the <code>PATH</code>, |
| <code>INCLUDE</code>, <code>LIB</code> and other variables |
| that can be configured with the <code>vcvars32</code> batch file:</p> |
| |
| <div class="example"><p><code> |
| "c:\Program Files\DevStudio\VC\Bin\vcvars32.bat" |
| </code></p></div> |
| </li> |
| |
| <li> |
| <p>The Windows Platform SDK.</p> |
| <p>Visual C++ 5.0 builds require an updated Microsoft Windows |
| Platform SDK to enable some Apache features. For command line |
| builds, the Platform SDK environment is prepared by the |
| <code>setenv</code> batch file:</p> |
| |
| <div class="example"><p><code> |
| "c:\Program Files\Platform SDK\setenv.bat" |
| </code></p></div> |
| |
| <p>The Platform SDK files distributed with Visual C++ 6.0 and |
| later are sufficient, so users of later version may skip |
| this requirement.</p> |
| |
| <div class="note">Note that the Windows Platform SDK update is required |
| to enable all supported <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_isapi.html">mod_isapi</a></code> features. |
| Without a recent update, Apache will issue warnings under |
| MSVC++ 5.0 that some <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_isapi.html">mod_isapi</a></code> features |
| will be disabled. Look for the update at <a href="http://msdn.microsoft.com/downloads/sdks/platform/platform.asp">http://msdn.microsoft.com/downloads/sdks/platform/platform.asp</a>.</div> |
| </li> |
| |
| <li> |
| <p>The awk utility (awk, gawk or similar).</p> |
| <p>To install Apache within the build system, several files are |
| modified using the <code>awk.exe</code> utility. awk was chosen since it |
| is a very small download (compared with Perl or WSH/VB) and |
| accomplishes the task of generating files. Brian Kernighan's |
| <a href="http://cm.bell-labs.com/cm/cs/who/bwk/">http://cm.bell-labs.com/cm/cs/who/bwk/</a> |
| site has a compiled native Win32 binary, |
| <a href="http://cm.bell-labs.com/cm/cs/who/bwk/awk95.exe">http://cm.bell-labs.com/cm/cs/who/bwk/awk95.exe</a> which |
| you must save with the name <code>awk.exe</code> rather than |
| <code>awk95.exe</code>.</p> |
| |
| <div class="note">Note that Developer Studio IDE will only find |
| <code>awk.exe</code> from the Tools menu Options... Directories |
| tab (the Projects - VC++ Directories pane in Developer Studio 7.0) |
| listing Executable file paths. Add the path for <code>awk.exe</code> |
| to this list, and your system <code>PATH</code> environment variable, |
| as needed.</div> |
| |
| <div class="note">Also note that if you are using Cygwin (<a href="http://www.cygwin.com/">http://www.cygwin.com/</a>) the awk utility is named <code>gawk.exe</code> and |
| that the file <code>awk.exe</code> is really a symlink to the <code>gawk.exe</code> |
| file. The Windows command shell does not recognize symlinks, and because of that |
| building InstallBin will fail. A workaround is to delete <code>awk.exe</code> from |
| the cygwin installation and rename <code>gawk.exe</code> to <code>awk.exe</code>.</div> |
| </li> |
| |
| <li> |
| <p>[Optional] OpenSSL libraries (for <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_ssl.html">mod_ssl</a></code> |
| and <code>ab.exe</code> with ssl support)</p> |
| <p><strong>Caution: there are significant restrictions and |
| prohibitions on the use and distribution of strong cryptography |
| and patented intellectual property throughout the world.</strong> |
| OpenSSL includes strong cryptography controlled by both export |
| regulations and domestic law, as well as intellectual property |
| protected by patent, in the United States and elsewhere. Neither |
| the Apache Software Foundation nor the OpenSSL project can provide |
| legal advise regarding possession, use, or distribution of the code |
| provided by the OpenSSL project. <strong>Consult your own legal |
| counsel, you are responsible for your own actions.</strong></p> |
| |
| <p>OpenSSL must be installed into a <code>srclib</code> subdirectory named |
| <code>openssl</code>, obtained from <a href="http://www.openssl.org/source/">http://www.openssl.org/source/</a>, in order to compile <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_ssl.html">mod_ssl</a></code> |
| or the abs project (<code>ab.exe</code> with SSL support.) To prepare OpenSSL |
| for both <code>release</code> and <code>debug</code> builds of Apache, and |
| disable the patent protected features in OpenSSL, you might use the following |
| build commands:</p> |
| |
| <div class="example"><p><code> |
| perl Configure VC-WIN32<br /> |
| perl util\mkfiles.pl >MINFO<br /> |
| perl util\mk1mf.pl dll no-asm no-mdc2 no-rc5 no-idea VC-WIN32 >makefile.rel<br /> |
| perl util\mk1mf.pl dll debug no-asm no-mdc2 no-rc5 no-idea VC-WIN32 >makefile.dbg<br /> |
| perl util\mkdef.pl 32 libeay no-asm no-mdc2 no-rc5 no-idea >ms\libeay32.def<br /> |
| perl util\mkdef.pl 32 ssleay no-asm no-mdc2 no-rc5 no-idea >ms\ssleay32.def<br /> |
| nmake -f makefile.rel<br /> |
| nmake -f makefile.dbg |
| </code></p></div> |
| |
| <p>Note; you can use the scripts in the <code>ms\</code> subdirectory, however, |
| it's rather tricky to force <code>ms\do_masm.bat</code>, for example, to perform |
| the patent encumberances as mentioned above. Patches to add the $* argument list |
| to the appropriate .bat lines in these scripts aren't incorporated, thus far.</p> |
| </li> |
| |
| <li> |
| <p>[Optional] zlib sources (for <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_deflate.html">mod_deflate</a></code>)</p> |
| <p>Zlib must be installed into a <code>srclib</code> subdirectory named |
| <code>zlib</code>, however those sources need not be compiled. The build system |
| will compile the compression sources directly into the <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_deflate.html">mod_deflate</a></code> |
| module. Zlib can be obtained from <a href="http://www.zlib.net/">http://www.zlib.net/</a> -- <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_deflate.html">mod_deflate</a></code> is confirmed to build |
| correctly with version 1.1.4. To use a later version of zlib, upgrade to |
| Apache HTTP Server release 2.2 or later.</p> |
| </li> |
| |
| </ul> |
| |
| </div><div class="top"><a href="#page-header"><img alt="top" src="../images/up.gif" /></a></div> |
| <div class="section"> |
| <h2><a name="commandbuild" id="commandbuild">Command-Line Build</a></h2> |
| |
| |
| |
| <p>First, unpack the Apache distribution into an appropriate |
| directory. Open a command-line prompt and <code>cd</code> to that |
| directory.</p> |
| |
| <p>The master Apache makefile instructions are contained in the |
| <code>Makefile.win</code> file. To compile Apache on Windows |
| NT, simply use one of the following commands to compiled the |
| <code>release</code> or <code>debug</code> build, respectively:</p> |
| |
| <div class="example"><pre> |
| nmake /f Makefile.win _apacher |
| |
| nmake /f Makefile.win _apached |
| </pre></div> |
| |
| <p>Either command will compile Apache. The latter will include |
| debugging information in the resulting files, making it easier |
| to find bugs and track down problems.</p> |
| |
| </div><div class="top"><a href="#page-header"><img alt="top" src="../images/up.gif" /></a></div> |
| <div class="section"> |
| <h2><a name="workspacebuild" id="workspacebuild">Developer Studio Workspace IDE Build</a></h2> |
| |
| |
| |
| <p>Apache can also be compiled using VC++'s Visual Studio |
| development environment. To simplify this process, a |
| Visual Studio workspace, <code>Apache.dsw</code>, is provided. |
| This workspace exposes the entire list of working <code>.dsp</code> |
| projects that are required for the complete Apache binary release. |
| It includes dependencies between the projects to assure that they |
| are built in the appropriate order.</p> |
| |
| <p>Open the <code>Apache.dsw</code> workspace, and select |
| <code>InstallBin</code> (<code>Release</code> or <code>Debug</code> build, |
| as desired) as the Active Project. <code>InstallBin</code> causes all |
| related project to be built, and then invokes <code>Makefile.win</code> to |
| move the compiled executables and dlls. You may personalize the |
| <code>INSTDIR=</code> choice by changing <code>InstallBin</code>'s Settings, |
| General tab, Build command line entry. <code>INSTDIR</code> defaults to the |
| <code>/Apache2</code> directory. If you only want a test compile (without |
| installing) you may build the <code>BuildBin</code> project instead.</p> |
| |
| <p>The <code>.dsp</code> project files are distributed in Visual |
| C++ 6.0 format. Visual C++ 5.0 (97) will recognize them. Visual C++ |
| 7.0 (.net) must convert <code>Apache.dsw</code> plus the <code>.dsp</code> |
| files into an <code>Apache.sln</code> plus <code>.msproj</code> files, |
| be sure you reconvert the <code>.msproj</code> file if any of the source |
| <code>.dsp</code> files change! This is really trivial, just open |
| <code>Apache.dsw</code> in the VC++ 7.0 IDE once again.</p> |
| |
| <p>Visual C++ 7.0 (.net) users should also use the Build |
| menu, Configuration Manager dialog to uncheck both the <code>Debug</code> |
| and <code>Release</code> Solution modules abs, <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_ssl.html">mod_ssl</a></code> |
| and <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_deflate.html">mod_deflate</a></code>. |
| These modules are built by invoking <code>nmake</code> or the IDE directly |
| with the <code>BinBuild</code> target to build those modules explicitly, |
| only if the <code>srclib</code> directories <code>openssl</code> |
| and/or <code>zlib</code> exist.</p> |
| |
| <p>Exported <code>.mak</code> files pose a greater hassle, but they are |
| required for Visual C++ 5.0 users to build <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_ssl.html">mod_ssl</a></code>, |
| abs (<code class="program"><a href="../programs/ab.html">ab</a></code> with SSL support) and/or |
| <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_deflate.html">mod_deflate</a></code>. |
| VC++ 7.0 (.net) users also benefit, <code>nmake</code> builds |
| are faster than <code>binenv</code> builds. |
| Build the entire project from within the VC++ 5.0 or 6.0 IDE, |
| then use the Project Menu Export for all makefiles. |
| You must build the projects first in order to create all dynamic |
| auto-generated targets, so that dependencies can be parsed |
| correctly. Run the following command to fix the paths so they |
| will build anywhere:</p> |
| |
| <div class="example"><p><code> |
| perl srclib\apr\build\fixwin32mak.pl |
| </code></p></div> |
| |
| <p>You must type this command from the <em>top level</em> |
| directory of the httpd source tree. Every |
| <code>.mak</code> and <code>.dep</code> project file within |
| the current directory and below will be corrected, and the |
| timestamps adjusted to reflect the <code>.dsp</code>.</p> |
| |
| <p>If you contribute back a patch that revises project files, we |
| must commit project files in Visual Studio 6.0 format. Changes |
| should be simple, with minimal compilation and linkage flags that |
| will be recognized by all VC++ 5.0 through 7.0 environments.</p> |
| |

| <div class="section"> |
| <h2><a name="projectcomponents" id="projectcomponents">Project Components</a></h2> |
| |
| |
| |
| <p>The <code>Apache.dsw</code> workspace and <code>makefile.win</code> |
| <code>nmake</code> script both build the <code>.dsp</code> projects |
| of the Apache server in the following sequence:</p> |
| |
| <ol> |
| <li><code>srclib\apr\apr.dsp</code></li> |
| |
| <li><code>srclib\apr\libapr.dsp</code></li> |
| |
| <li><code>srclib\apr-util\uri\gen_uri_delims.dsp</code></li> |
| |
| <li><code>srclib\apr-util\xml\expat\lib\xml.dsp</code></li> |
| |
| <li><code>srclib\apr-util\aprutil.dsp</code></li> |
| |
| <li><code>srclib\apr-util\libaprutil.dsp</code></li> |
| |
| <li><code>srclib\pcre\dftables.dsp</code></li> |
| |
| <li><code>srclib\pcre\pcre.dsp</code></li> |
| |
| <li><code>srclib\pcre\pcreposix.dsp</code></li> |
| |
| <li><code>server\gen_test_char.dsp</code></li> |
| |
| <li><code>libhttpd.dsp</code></li> |
| |
| <li><code>Apache.dsp</code></li> |
| </ol> |
| |
| <p>In addition, the <code>modules\</code> subdirectory tree contains |
| project files for the majority of the modules.</p> |
| |
| <p>The <code>support\</code> directory contains project files for |
| additional programs that are not part of the Apache runtime, |
| but are used by the administrator to test Apache and maintain |
| password and log files. Windows-specific support projects are |
| broken out in the <code>support\win32\</code> directory.</p> |
| |
| <ol> |
| <li><code>support\ab.dsp</code></li> |
| |
| <li><code>support\htdigest.dsp</code></li> |
| |
| <li><code>support\htpasswd.dsp</code></li> |
| |
| <li><code>support\logresolve.dsp</code></li> |
| |
| <li><code>support\rotatelogs.dsp</code></li> |
| |
| <li><code>support\win32\ApacheMonitor.dsp</code></li> |
| |
| <li><code>support\win32\wintty.dsp</code></li> |
| </ol> |
| |
| <p>Once Apache has been compiled, it needs to be installed in |
| its server root directory. The default is the |
| <code>\Apache2</code> directory, of the same drive.</p> |
| |
| <p>To build and install all the files into the desired folder |
| <em>dir</em> automatically, use one of the following |
| <code>nmake</code> commands:</p> |
| |
| <div class="example"><pre> |
| nmake /f Makefile.win installr INSTDIR=<em>dir</em> |
| |
| nmake /f Makefile.win installd INSTDIR=<em>dir</em> |
| </pre></div> |
| |
| <p>The <em>dir</em> argument to <code>INSTDIR</code> gives |
| the installation directory; it can be omitted if Apache is |
| to be installed into <code>\Apache2</code>.</p> |
| |
| <p>This will install the following:</p> |
| |
| <ul> |
| <li><code><em>dir</em>\bin\Apache.exe</code> - Apache |
| executable</li> |
| |
| <li><code><em>dir</em>\bin\ApacheMonitor.exe</code> - Service |
| monitor taskbar icon utility</li> |

| |
| <li><code><em>dir</em>\bin\logresolve.exe</code> - Log file |
| dns name lookup utility</li> |
| |
| <li><code><em>dir</em>\bin\rotatelogs.exe</code> - Log file |
| cycling utility</li> |
| |
| <li><code><em>dir</em>\bin\wintty.exe</code> - Console window |

| <h3><a name="projectcomponents-warn" id="projectcomponents-warn">Warning about building Apache from the development tree</a></h3> |
| |
| |
| |
| <div class="note">Note only the <code>.dsp</code> files are maintained between <code>release</code> |
| builds. The <code>.mak</code> files are NOT regenerated, due to the tremendous |
| waste of reviewer's time. Therefore, you cannot rely on the <code>NMAKE</code> |
| commands above to build revised <code>.dsp</code> project files unless you |
| then export all <code>.mak</code> files yourself from the project. This is |
| unnecessary if you build from within the Microsoft |
| Developer Studio environment.</div> |
| |
| <div class="note">Also note it is very worthwhile to build the <code>BuildBin</code> |
| target project (or the command line <code>_apacher</code> or |
| <code>_apached</code> target) prior to exporting the make files. |
| Many files are autogenerated in the build process. Only a full |
| build provides all of the dependent files required to build proper |
| dependency trees for correct build behavior.</div> |
| |
| <p>In order to create distribution <code>.mak</code> files, always review |
| the generated <code>.mak</code> (or <code>.dep</code>) dependencies for |
| Platform SDK or other garbage includes. The <code>DevStudio\SharedIDE\bin\</code> |
| (VC5) or <code>DevStudio\Common\MSDev98\bin\</code> (VC6) directory contains |
| the <code>sysincl.dat</code> file, which must list all exceptions. Update this |
| file (including both forward and backslashed paths, such as both |
| <code>sys/time.h</code> and <code>sys\time.h</code>) to include such dependencies. |
| Including local-install paths in a distributed <code>.mak</code> file will |
| cause the build to fail completely. And don't forget to run |
| <code>srclib/apr/build/fixwin32mak.pl</code> in order to fix absolute |
| paths within the <code>.mak</code> files.</p> |
