Description Aron Kovacs 2007-04-12 13:27:14 UTC
Cannot load /usr/lib/apache2/modules/mod_deflate.so into server: /usr/lib/apache2/modules/mod_deflate.so: undefined symbol: deflate

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
I just updated my sys-libs/db to the newest version and removed the old one
sys-libs/db-4.2.52_p4-r2 (old one)
sys-libs/db-4.3.29-r2 (new one)
net-apache/apache-2.0.58-r2
revdep-rebuild told me that i need to rebuild couple of things, php ,apache (8 in total). etc-update told me to update httpd.conf , decided to stick with the old one.
Actual Results:  
After rebuilding , starting apache complained about some modules being built in.
I commented these modules in /etc/apache2/httpd.conf
Then i got Cannot load /usr/lib/apache2/modules/mod_deflate.so into server: /usr/lib/apache2/modules/mod_deflate.so: undefined symbol: deflate

Expected Results:  
apache should had just started
i didnt had this problem before.

this can be fixed by reemerging apache with 'LDFLAGS="-lz" emerge apache'

At least post your apache version; it works just fine here.

its all posted on the first post

reopened
Comment 5 Sergey Zolotorev 2007-05-09 12:12:29 UTC
Hmm, I have the same error with apache-2.0.58-r2 and up-to-date system. I have just installed Apache and tried to start it:

sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 start
 * Service apache2 starting
 Apache2 has detected a syntax error in your configuration files:
Syntax error on line 319 of /etc/apache2/httpd.conf:
Cannot load /usr/lib/apache2/modules/mod_deflate.so into server: /usr/lib/apache2/modules/mod_deflate.so: undefined symbol: inflateEnd
 * ERROR:  apache2 failed to start

But you can see undefined symbol is not *inflate* but *inflateEnd*.

I did not try to reemerge Apache with custom LDFLAGS.
Comment 6 Christian Heim (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2007-06-03 13:55:31 UTC
Could both of you try =apache-2.2.4* ? It seems to work perfectly fine on my box running apache-2.2.
Comment 7 Sergey Zolotorev 2007-06-04 21:22:59 UTC
Yeah... I have upgraded apache to 2.2.4-r4 (installed app-admin/apache-tools and dev-libs/apr-util-1* as needed) and enabled mod_deflate again - all works fine without any errors.
