Description Tobias 2002-12-20 13:12:33 UTC

apache cannot be emerged, the following happens if you try:

-
>>> Source unpacked.
 * Using /home/httpd
/home/httpd as apache's default data directory.
 * Using /usr/portage/net-www/apache/files/apache-builtin-mods for builtins.
Configuring for Apache, Version 1.3.27
 + using installation path layout: Apache (config.layout)
configure:Error: invalid option '/home/httpd'

!!! ERROR: net-www/apache-1.3.27-r1 failed.
!!! Function src_compile, Line -2, Exitcode 1
!!! bad ./configure
-

Comment 1 Tobias 2002-12-20 13:29:33 UTC

ebuild is: net-www/apache-1.3.27-r1

the problem seems to be that $DATA_DIR becomes "$DATA_DIR $DATA_DIR" somewhere before ./configure [...]

/etc/passwd has to apache entries... should have been my first idea, sorry.

i guess there's only one apache in gentoos standard /etc/passwd, so it's obviously my fault.

sorry for badgering you.
