It might be possible to get it to run on OS4.2. I know several programs didn't like to run on OS4.2 like Wingz, VOID, etc. But you could load the NS3.3 libs needed & get them to work. There was some threads on the newsgroups about that. I'll look later & see what I can turn up. Guess, I'll have to dig out that 21" monitor for the Color Turbo Slab. LOL. Thanks Helf, thanks alot. Just give me another reason to strain my back & carry that monitor back down. ROFL.  Add one more thing to the list for NeXT week. You better overnight that Daydream. LMAO. Serioulsly though, I'll do some research on that. No promises. Unless some has already tried. I'll let you know. Take care. |

well, the software for the daydream runs and you can create disk images and make it boot into the daydream. It will take over the system like it should but then it pops up with a bad or missing floppy icon and won't go any farther unless you stick in a Mac system floppy. So I don't know if you can solve that very easily.
don't want to hijack this thread too much  If you want to give it a shot, I can mail you the daydream in a few weeks for a bit to play with. It'd better come back in one piece, tho

|
|
Hi,
OK, so the shared libs can only be used on OS, thats too bad. Dropping backwards compatibility is almost always a sad thing to do. I guess that means that we will never see php5 with apache-2.2.x on NS since apache-2 does not support static linking with php. Is the compiler supplied with NS3.3 unable to generate code for shared libraries? If the NS3.3 compiler have that ability, then maybe its possible to build apache/php statically linked against all system libraries but still with the apache internal LoadModule feature enabled. I think apache relies on what is defined in mach-o/dyld.h for its Loadmodule feature but I don't rembember exactly what functionality is required, is usr/include/mach-o/dyld.h at all present in NS3.3? |

|
|
I'm running into problems when trying to build php5 with nextstep 3.3 dev kit (gcc 2.5. compiler says: "Zend/zend_alloc.c:0: unknown operation in constant expression".
This is most likely the preprocessor that fails expanding or evaluating some macro in the code, but obviously not at line number zero? hard work going through every line of code in the file to check for macros that seem to cause trouble... Same code builds fine with gcc in OpenSTEP 4.2 dev kit. Anyone seen this before, or have any suggestions? |

You might want to try using -traditional-cpp w/ cc & see if that helps. It helps get quite a bit of stuff to compile. I usually use it most of the time. |

I tested all of them.  Congrats on the php5! I'm sure you'll use the -traditional-cpp alot. Take care. |

In case you haven't noticed, linmag7 has been working like a mad man getting this all compiled quad-fat for everyone to test. apache w/ php4/mod_ssl has been posted to my web server. Get his packages while they're HOT! apache w/ php5 support coming soon. Since my Sparc 5 is back online w/ a new 18 gig drive, there's no longer any worries about running out of space. I'm planning on testing some new instances of apache. Thanks Magnus!

Hi All,
As kb7sqi mentioned apache/php4 and some more stuff is available as a quad-fat packages. I'd greatly appreciate any feedback on how the builds work, specially if you test it on another hardware platform. |

I'll be testing on m68k, hppa, & i386 first. |
