First: how relates an Apache compile to a "SAP on Unix" system? What is your goal?

Second: Without any information about OS, compiler and compile flags used it's next to impossible to help you. Are you trying to build 32bit or 64bit? Using GCC or Sun native compilers?

Dear Markus,

I want to install and build Content Server Modules with Apache 2.2 on all platforms.

I have validated and successfully built on all platforms except sunx86_64.

I get the below error when doing so .

Can you please advise here .

I am trying to build 64 bit apache.

Compilation aborted, too many Error messages.

gnumake: *** [apacsrvstate.22o] Error 1

Is it because the apache source file is missing ?

Again the question:

Which compiler and compiler flags do you use?

On Solaris x86_64 you have to explicitly compile to 64bit, it defaults to 32bit if you don't tell the compiler to do so.
