Description Puggan 2015-01-28 01:26:02 UTC

config.log

running "emerge php" give the folowing configuration error:
---
checking whether to enable Apache charset compatibility option... no
checking for Apache 2.0 filter-module support via DSO through APXS... no
checking for Apache 2.0 handler-module support via DSO through APXS... 

Sorry, I cannot run apxs.  Possible reasons follow:

1. Perl is not installed
2. apxs was not found. Try to pass the path using --with-apxs2=/path/to/apxs
3. Apache was not built using --enable-so (the apxs usage page is displayed)

The output of /usr/sbin/apxs follows:
apxs:Error: /usr/sbin/apache2 not found or not executable.
configure: error: Aborting

running "/usr/sbin/apxs -q CFLAGS" in bash gives "-O2 -march=native -pipe"

Please post your `emerge --info www-servers/apache' output in a comment.

Comment 5 Puggan 2015-01-28 11:41:39 UTC 
after re-emerging www-servers/apache, the error disepered.
had "www-servers/apache-2.2.27-r4:2" both before and after.
and run "revdep-rebuild" yesterday before reporting the bug.
Comment 6 totony 2015-05-20 22:56:46 UTC 
I had the same problem, it was caused by directory permissions on /usr/sbin being restricted to root.

Maybe change the path to /usr/bin/apxs would fix this, since /usr/sbin/apxs is a symlink.
Comment 7 Michael Orlitzky gentoo-dev 2015-11-24 16:39:12 UTC 
It looks like we can fix the depend.apache eclass at this point...
Comment 8 Michael Orlitzky gentoo-dev 2016-09-29 18:53:34 UTC 
I've since dropped the depend.apache eclass, and updated the path to /usr/bin/apxs. This shouldn't be a problem for PHP any longer.
