Hi,
I have a problem building sendmail8.13.4 with starttls support on by slack 10.1 box.


In devtools/Site/ directory I created site.config.m4 file. It looks as follows:

APPENDDEF(`confENVDEF',`-DSTARTTLS')
APPENDDEF(`confLIBS', `-lssl -lcrypto')
APPENDDEF(`confLIBDIRS', `-L/usr/local/ssl/lib -R/usr/local/ssl/lib')
APPENDDEF(`confINCDIRS', `-I/usr/local/ssl/include')

Then I tried to run ./Build -c

The following errors occur:

cc: unrecognized option `-R/usr/local/ssl/lib'
/usr/lib/gcc-lib/i486-slackware-linux/3.3.4/../../../../i486-slackware-linux/bin/ld: c
annot find -lphclient

I've installed openssl-0.9.7g in its default directory /usr/local/ssl


Note: Without site.config.m4 file from devtools/Site Build works just fine.


Any ideas?

What do I do wrong?

Thanks a lot

C compiler can't recognize -R parameter. Where did you get it ?
C compiler cann't find phclient.h include file and phclient library. I found this link. Maybe you should install it first.

I don't intend to offend you, but it looks like you miss some basic knowledge and experience and I'd recommend to learn and read much more before you'll mess with such things

The site.config.m4.sample from the devtools/Site directory mention -R. Now you get where I take it from.

dnl ### Note the "-R" for the library directory. On some systems, ###

Thanks. I should do it !



No comment.


Thanks for your help. It is really appreciated.

I've installed PH Client and Programming API and I've got rid of -R option and it worked just fine.


Thanks,
p.s.
You are right.

Thou art welcome

Hello.
I had the same trouble, and this topic is decision.
But after elimination of this problem, I had a new trouble:

I tried to reinstall nph with option in Makefile:
But it does not help..

p.s. I use FreeBSD 7.0 RELEASE (I hope it will not prevent to answer a question)
