    But as obviously this package has succseefully been compiled under
    cygwin this cannot be the real problem..
    Does anybody have a hint what is going wrong here?

Yes, I used the apache2-2.2.6-1.sh script from the cygwin source tarball for apache2.2.6.
(package apache2/apache2-2.2.6-1-src). I also read 
/usr/share/doc/Cygwin/*apache*2-2.2.6.README

but there are no hints or special instructions. 

This is why I am wondering; 
maybe the maintainer can tell if this is a general problem that he overcame 
in some way or if this seems to be pinned to this installation. Might this be a problem
with a 64 bit Windows operating system? 

Best regards,

Hello, we are trying to compile apache2 from the cygwin-supplied source 
tree using the apache2-2.2.6-1.sh script.

The reason I want to compile an own apache is that we need some 
additional modules not available from

the cygwin repositories. After success, I plan to publish these for the 
community.


I think we have all the necessary packages such as apr, apr-util, ldap, 
ssl and the respective devel packages.

This cygwin runs on a w2k3 server (64 bit).

The compile step goes well, in the linker phase we get an error in the 
final step:


make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/src/httpd-2.2.6/.build'

/usr/share/apr/build-1/libtool --silent --mode=link gcc   -O2   
-L/usr/lib   -o httpd2  -export-dynamic

*/usr/lib/libcygwin.a(libcmain.o):(.text+0xa9): undefined reference to 
`_WinMain AT 16'*

collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

make[1]: *** [httpd2] Error 1

make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/httpd-2.2.6/.build'

make: *** [all-recursive] Error 1


The only reference to this error that I could find refers to a missing 
main() or Winmain() function:

But as obviously this package has succseefully been compiled under 
cygwin this cannot be the real problem..

Does anybody have a hint what is going wrong here?


Thanks for a hint,

Jakob Curdes
