I am trying to install Apache from scratch, which is the usual nightmare...the problem I have at the moment is that make doesn't work.

I get this error:

make: Fatal error: Command failed for target `all-recursive'


This is the whole output:

Would anyone know how to get around this?

You should use the GNU make (/usr/sfw/bin/gmake), instead of the Solaris make.
