Hi all,

I'm currently trying to give tomcat 4 a go, but I keep getting gummed up
when I try to get it working with apache 1.3.  I've tried compiling
mod_webapp using cygwin, with I haven't had much luck.  I edit the makefile
with the correct path to apxs.pl, and edit the first line in apxs.pl to
reflect the location of perl, but I end up getting this output:

make[1]: Entering directory
`/home/administrator/jakarta-tomcat-4.0-b1/src/connectors/webapplib'
make[1]: `libwebapp.a' is up to date.
make[1]: Leaving directory
`/home/administrator/jakarta-tomcat-4.0-b1/src/connectors/webapplib'
make[1]: Entering directory
`/home/administrator/jakarta-tomcat-4.0-b1/src/connectors/apache-1.3'
/home/administrator/support/apxs.pl -c -I../webapplib -L../webapplib -lwebap
p mod_webapp.c
make[1]: Leaving directory
`/home/administrator/jakarta-tomcat-4.0-b1/src/connectors/apache-1.3'
apxs:Error @sbindir@/@TARGET@ not found or not executable
make[1]: *** [mod_webapp.so] Error 1
make: *** [apache-1.3/mod_webapp.so] Error 2

I've tried just about everything I know, but I just can't get cygwin to
compile it.  I guess my real question is, should I give up on cygwin and get
myself Microsoft Visual C++?

Also if you know what I'm doing wrong, that would be great too! ...I
actually tired compiling it in BeOS.  I didn't get this problem at all, so I
just don't think it's anything I'M doing wrong...i hope

Thankies!
