- Platform independent:
- htpasswd incorrectly reports -c and -n were used together when only one of them was used.
- htpasswd corrupts old .htpasswd files when -c option not used because
it fails to place a \n at the end of each line.
Apply the htpasswd-*.patch patches here to support/htpasswd.c and recompile. These will be fixed for 2.0.40.
- Platform specific:
- AIX
- up-to-date libtool needed
Install libtool 1.4.2 separately. Once the Apache source distribution has been unpacked, run ./buildconf before ./configure.
- up-to-date libtool needed
- Mac OS X
- patched libtool needed
Unfortunately, no currently-distributed libtool is known to work correctly with Apache on Mac OS X. The MacOS X Developer Tools come with GNU libtool (called glibtool but buildconf knows about this) 1.3.5, which is almost functional with Apache. It needs one little patch, which is in the file osx_libtool.patch in this directory. This allows you to build Apache on MacOS X 10.1 (Darwin 5.1 and onwards) using the Mac OS X Developer Tools.
- patched libtool needed
- OS/390
- different libtool needed
Please see apache-2-on-os390.html for more information on building Apache 2.0 on OS/390.
- different libtool needed
- Solaris
- apply OS fix if running Solaris 8
Solaris 8 as initially shipped has a bug in the resolver library which can cause Apache 2.0 to hang in the getaddrinfo() library function. This problem can be avoided by adding --disable-ipv6 to your Apache configure invocation, but the best option is to apply the Sun-recommended Solaris 8 patch set to get the fix.

- up-to-date libtool needed
Install libtool separately. (1.3.5 and 1.4.2 are known to work.) Once the Apache source distribution has been unpacked, run ./buildconf before ./configure.
