<div class="section">
<h2><a name="requirements" id="requirements">Requirements</a></h2>
<p>Compiling Apache requires the following environment to be
properly installed:</p>
<ul>
<li>
<p>Disk Space</p>
<p>Make sure you have at least 50 MB of free disk space
available. After installation Apache requires approximately
10 MB of disk space, plus space for log and cache files,
which can grow rapidly. The actual disk space requirements
will vary considerably based on your chosen configuration and
any third-party modules or libraries.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Microsoft Visual C++ 5.0 or higher.</p>
<p>Apache can be built using the command line tools, or from
within the Visual Studio IDE Workbench. The command line
build requires the environment to reflect the <code>PATH</code>,
<code>INCLUDE</code>, <code>LIB</code> and other variables
that can be configured with the <code>vcvars32</code> batch file:</p>
<div class="example"><p><code>
"c:\Program Files\DevStudio\VC\Bin\vcvars32.bat"
</code></p></div>
</li>
<li>
<p>The Windows Platform SDK.</p>
<p>Visual C++ 5.0 builds require an updated Microsoft Windows
Platform SDK to enable some Apache features. For command line
builds, the Platform SDK environment is prepared by the
<code>setenv</code> batch file:</p>
<div class="example"><p><code>
"c:\Program Files\Platform SDK\setenv.bat"
</code></p></div>
<p>The Platform SDK files distributed with Visual C++ 6.0 and
later are sufficient, so users of later version may skip
this requirement.</p>
<div class="note">Note that the Windows Platform SDK update is required
to enable all supported <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_isapi.html">mod_isapi</a></code> features.
Without a recent update, Apache will issue warnings under
MSVC++ 5.0 that some <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_isapi.html">mod_isapi</a></code> features
will be disabled. Look for the update at <a href="http://msdn.microsoft.com/downloads/sdks/platform/platform.asp">http://msdn.microsoft.com/downloads/sdks/platform/platform.asp</a>.</div>
</li>
<li>
<p>The awk utility (awk, gawk or similar).</p>
<p>To install Apache within the build system, several files are
modified using the <code>awk.exe</code> utility. awk was chosen since it
is a very small download (compared with Perl or WSH/VB) and
accomplishes the task of generating files. Brian Kernighan's
<a href="http://cm.bell-labs.com/cm/cs/who/bwk/">http://cm.bell-labs.com/cm/cs/who/bwk/</a>
site has a compiled native Win32 binary,
<a href="http://cm.bell-labs.com/cm/cs/who/bwk/awk95.exe">http://cm.bell-labs.com/cm/cs/who/bwk/awk95.exe</a> which
you must save with the name <code>awk.exe</code> rather than
<code>awk95.exe</code>.</p>
<div class="note">Note that Developer Studio IDE will only find
<code>awk.exe</code> from the Tools menu Options... Directories
tab (the Projects - VC++ Directories pane in Developer Studio 7.0)
listing Executable file paths. Add the path for <code>awk.exe</code>
to this list, and your system <code>PATH</code> environment variable,
as needed.</div>
<div class="note">Also note that if you are using Cygwin (<a href="http://www.cygwin.com/">http://www.cygwin.com/</a>) the awk utility is named <code>gawk.exe</code> and
that the file <code>awk.exe</code> is really a symlink to the <code>gawk.exe</code>
file. The Windows command shell does not recognize symlinks, and because of that
building InstallBin will fail. A workaround is to delete <code>awk.exe</code> from
the cygwin installation and rename <code>gawk.exe</code> to <code>awk.exe</code>.</div>
</li>
<li>
<p>[Optional] OpenSSL libraries (for <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_ssl.html">mod_ssl</a></code>
and <code>ab.exe</code> with ssl support)</p>
<p><strong>Caution: there are significant restrictions and
prohibitions on the use and distribution of strong cryptography
and patented intellectual property throughout the world.</strong>
OpenSSL includes strong cryptography controlled by both export
regulations and domestic law, as well as intellectual property
protected by patent, in the United States and elsewhere. Neither
the Apache Software Foundation nor the OpenSSL project can provide
legal advise regarding possession, use, or distribution of the code
provided by the OpenSSL project. <strong>Consult your own legal
counsel, you are responsible for your own actions.</strong></p>
<p>OpenSSL must be installed into a <code>srclib</code> subdirectory named
<code>openssl</code>, obtained from <a href="http://www.openssl.org/source/">http://www.openssl.org/source/</a>, in order to compile <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_ssl.html">mod_ssl</a></code>
or the abs project (<code>ab.exe</code> with SSL support.) To prepare OpenSSL
for both <code>release</code> and <code>debug</code> builds of Apache, and
disable the patent protected features in OpenSSL, you might use the following
build commands:</p>
<div class="example"><p><code>
perl Configure VC-WIN32<br />
perl util\mkfiles.pl >MINFO<br />
perl util\mk1mf.pl dll no-asm no-mdc2 no-rc5 no-idea VC-WIN32 >makefile.rel<br />
perl util\mk1mf.pl dll debug no-asm no-mdc2 no-rc5 no-idea VC-WIN32 >makefile.dbg<br />
perl util\mkdef.pl 32 libeay no-asm no-mdc2 no-rc5 no-idea >ms\libeay32.def<br />
perl util\mkdef.pl 32 ssleay no-asm no-mdc2 no-rc5 no-idea >ms\ssleay32.def<br />
nmake -f makefile.rel<br />
nmake -f makefile.dbg
</code></p></div>
<p>Note; you can use the scripts in the <code>ms\</code> subdirectory, however,
it's rather tricky to force <code>ms\do_masm.bat</code>, for example, to perform
the patent encumberances as mentioned above. Patches to add the $* argument list
to the appropriate .bat lines in these scripts aren't incorporated, thus far.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>[Optional] zlib sources (for <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_deflate.html">mod_deflate</a></code>)</p>
<p>Zlib must be installed into a <code>srclib</code> subdirectory named
<code>zlib</code>, however those sources need not be compiled. The build system
will compile the compression sources directly into the <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_deflate.html">mod_deflate</a></code>
module. Zlib can be obtained from <a href="http://www.zlib.net/">http://www.zlib.net/</a> -- <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_deflate.html">mod_deflate</a></code> is confirmed to build
correctly with version 1.1.4. To use a later version of zlib, upgrade to
Apache HTTP Server release 2.2 or later.</p>
</li>
</ul>
</div><div class="top"><a href="#page-header"><img alt="top" src="../images/up.gif" /></a></div>
<div class="section">
<h2><a name="commandbuild" id="commandbuild">Command-Line Build</a></h2>
<p>First, unpack the Apache distribution into an appropriate
directory. Open a command-line prompt and <code>cd</code> to that
directory.</p>
<p>The master Apache makefile instructions are contained in the
<code>Makefile.win</code> file. To compile Apache on Windows
NT, simply use one of the following commands to compiled the
<code>release</code> or <code>debug</code> build, respectively:</p>
<div class="example"><pre>
nmake /f Makefile.win _apacher
nmake /f Makefile.win _apached
</pre></div>
<p>Either command will compile Apache. The latter will include
debugging information in the resulting files, making it easier
to find bugs and track down problems.</p>
</div><div class="top"><a href="#page-header"><img alt="top" src="../images/up.gif" /></a></div>
<div class="section">
<h2><a name="workspacebuild" id="workspacebuild">Developer Studio Workspace IDE Build</a></h2>
<p>Apache can also be compiled using VC++'s Visual Studio
development environment. To simplify this process, a
Visual Studio workspace, <code>Apache.dsw</code>, is provided.
This workspace exposes the entire list of working <code>.dsp</code>
projects that are required for the complete Apache binary release.
It includes dependencies between the projects to assure that they
are built in the appropriate order.</p>
<p>Open the <code>Apache.dsw</code> workspace, and select
<code>InstallBin</code> (<code>Release</code> or <code>Debug</code> build,
as desired) as the Active Project. <code>InstallBin</code> causes all
related project to be built, and then invokes <code>Makefile.win</code> to
move the compiled executables and dlls. You may personalize the
<code>INSTDIR=</code> choice by changing <code>InstallBin</code>'s Settings,
General tab, Build command line entry. <code>INSTDIR</code> defaults to the
<code>/Apache2</code> directory. If you only want a test compile (without
installing) you may build the <code>BuildBin</code> project instead.</p>
<p>The <code>.dsp</code> project files are distributed in Visual
C++ 6.0 format. Visual C++ 5.0 (97) will recognize them. Visual C++
7.0 (.net) must convert <code>Apache.dsw</code> plus the <code>.dsp</code>
files into an <code>Apache.sln</code> plus <code>.msproj</code> files,
be sure you reconvert the <code>.msproj</code> file if any of the source
<code>.dsp</code> files change! This is really trivial, just open
<code>Apache.dsw</code> in the VC++ 7.0 IDE once again.</p>
<p>Visual C++ 7.0 (.net) users should also use the Build
menu, Configuration Manager dialog to uncheck both the <code>Debug</code>
and <code>Release</code> Solution modules abs, <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_ssl.html">mod_ssl</a></code>
and <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_deflate.html">mod_deflate</a></code>.
These modules are built by invoking <code>nmake</code> or the IDE directly
with the <code>BinBuild</code> target to build those modules explicitly,
only if the <code>srclib</code> directories <code>openssl</code>
and/or <code>zlib</code> exist.</p>
<p>Exported <code>.mak</code> files pose a greater hassle, but they are
required for Visual C++ 5.0 users to build <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_ssl.html">mod_ssl</a></code>,
abs (<code class="program"><a href="../programs/ab.html">ab</a></code> with SSL support) and/or
<code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_deflate.html">mod_deflate</a></code>.
VC++ 7.0 (.net) users also benefit, <code>nmake</code> builds
are faster than <code>binenv</code> builds.
Build the entire project from within the VC++ 5.0 or 6.0 IDE,
then use the Project Menu Export for all makefiles.
You must build the projects first in order to create all dynamic
auto-generated targets, so that dependencies can be parsed
correctly. Run the following command to fix the paths so they
will build anywhere:</p>
<div class="example"><p><code>
perl srclib\apr\build\fixwin32mak.pl
</code></p></div>
<p>You must type this command from the <em>top level</em>
directory of the httpd source tree. Every
<code>.mak</code> and <code>.dep</code> project file within
the current directory and below will be corrected, and the
timestamps adjusted to reflect the <code>.dsp</code>.</p>
<p>If you contribute back a patch that revises project files, we
must commit project files in Visual Studio 6.0 format. Changes
should be simple, with minimal compilation and linkage flags that
will be recognized by all VC++ 5.0 through 7.0 environments.</p>
</div><div class="top"><a href="#page-header"><img alt="top" src="../images/up.gif" /></a></div>
<div class="section">
<h2><a name="projectcomponents" id="projectcomponents">Project Components</a></h2>
<p>The <code>Apache.dsw</code> workspace and <code>makefile.win</code>
<code>nmake</code> script both build the <code>.dsp</code> projects
of the Apache server in the following sequence:</p>
<ol>
<li><code>srclib\apr\apr.dsp</code></li>
<li><code>srclib\apr\libapr.dsp</code></li>
<li><code>srclib\apr-util\uri\gen_uri_delims.dsp</code></li>
<li><code>srclib\apr-util\xml\expat\lib\xml.dsp</code></li>
<li><code>srclib\apr-util\aprutil.dsp</code></li>
<li><code>srclib\apr-util\libaprutil.dsp</code></li>
<li><code>srclib\pcre\dftables.dsp</code></li>
<li><code>srclib\pcre\pcre.dsp</code></li>
<li><code>srclib\pcre\pcreposix.dsp</code></li>
<li><code>server\gen_test_char.dsp</code></li>
<li><code>libhttpd.dsp</code></li>
<li><code>Apache.dsp</code></li>
</ol>
<p>In addition, the <code>modules\</code> subdirectory tree contains
project files for the majority of the modules.</p>
<p>The <code>support\</code> directory contains project files for
additional programs that are not part of the Apache runtime,
but are used by the administrator to test Apache and maintain
password and log files. Windows-specific support projects are
broken out in the <code>support\win32\</code> directory.</p>
<ol>
<li><code>support\ab.dsp</code></li>
<li><code>support\htdigest.dsp</code></li>
<li><code>support\htpasswd.dsp</code></li>
<li><code>support\logresolve.dsp</code></li>
<li><code>support\rotatelogs.dsp</code></li>
<li><code>support\win32\ApacheMonitor.dsp</code></li>
<li><code>support\win32\wintty.dsp</code></li>
</ol>
<p>Once Apache has been compiled, it needs to be installed in
its server root directory. The default is the
<code>\Apache2</code> directory, of the same drive.</p>
<p>To build and install all the files into the desired folder
<em>dir</em> automatically, use one of the following
<code>nmake</code> commands:</p>
<div class="example"><pre>
nmake /f Makefile.win installr INSTDIR=<em>dir</em>
nmake /f Makefile.win installd INSTDIR=<em>dir</em>
</pre></div>
<p>The <em>dir</em> argument to <code>INSTDIR</code> gives
the installation directory; it can be omitted if Apache is
to be installed into <code>\Apache2</code>.</p>
<p>This will install the following:</p>
<ul>
<li><code><em>dir</em>\bin\Apache.exe</code> - Apache
executable</li>
<li><code><em>dir</em>\bin\ApacheMonitor.exe</code> - Service
monitor taskbar icon utility</li>
<li><code><em>dir</em>\bin\htdigest.exe</code> - Digest auth
password file utility</li>
<li><code><em>dir</em>\bin\htdbm.exe</code> - SDBM auth
database password file utility</li>
<li><code><em>dir</em>\bin\htpasswd.exe</code> - Basic auth
password file utility</li>
<li><code><em>dir</em>\bin\logresolve.exe</code> - Log file
dns name lookup utility</li>
<li><code><em>dir</em>\bin\rotatelogs.exe</code> - Log file
cycling utility</li>
<li><code><em>dir</em>\bin\wintty.exe</code> - Console window
utility</li>
<li><code><em>dir</em>\bin\libapr.dll</code> - Apache
Portable Runtime shared library</li>
<li><code><em>dir</em>\bin\libaprutil.dll</code> - Apache
Utility Runtime shared library</li>
<li><code><em>dir</em>\bin\libhttpd.dll</code> - Apache Core
library</li>
<li><code><em>dir</em>\modules\mod_*.so</code> - Loadable
Apache modules</li>
<li><code><em>dir</em>\conf</code> - Configuration
directory</li>
<li><code><em>dir</em>\logs</code> - Empty logging
directory</li>
<li><code><em>dir</em>\include</code> - C language header
files</li>
<li><code><em>dir</em>\lib</code> - Link library files</li>
</ul>
<h3><a name="projectcomponents-warn" id="projectcomponents-warn">Warning about building Apache from the development tree</a></h3>
<div class="note">Note only the <code>.dsp</code> files are maintained between <code>release</code>
builds. The <code>.mak</code> files are NOT regenerated, due to the tremendous
waste of reviewer's time. Therefore, you cannot rely on the <code>NMAKE</code>
commands above to build revised <code>.dsp</code> project files unless you
then export all <code>.mak</code> files yourself from the project. This is
unnecessary if you build from within the Microsoft
Developer Studio environment.</div>
<div class="note">Also note it is very worthwhile to build the <code>BuildBin</code>
target project (or the command line <code>_apacher</code> or
<code>_apached</code> target) prior to exporting the make files.
Many files are autogenerated in the build process. Only a full
build provides all of the dependent files required to build proper
dependency trees for correct build behavior.</div>
<p>In order to create distribution <code>.mak</code> files, always review
the generated <code>.mak</code> (or <code>.dep</code>) dependencies for
Platform SDK or other garbage includes. The <code>DevStudio\SharedIDE\bin\</code>
(VC5) or <code>DevStudio\Common\MSDev98\bin\</code> (VC6) directory contains
the <code>sysincl.dat</code> file, which must list all exceptions. Update this
file (including both forward and backslashed paths, such as both
<code>sys/time.h</code> and <code>sys\time.h</code>) to include such dependencies.
Including local-install paths in a distributed <code>.mak</code> file will
cause the build to fail completely. And don't forget to run
<code>srclib/apr/build/fixwin32mak.pl</code> in order to fix absolute
paths within the <code>.mak</code> files.</p>
