You asked for it. ;)
Subversion 1.0.5 installation from source, on an isolated Intel box running
newly-installed Solaris 9.
This sequence of steps resulted in a working installation of Subversion
server, using Apache 2.0.49 with user authentication. No SSL. Subversion
(and the web server) runs as user "svn".
This is just my log, it's not intended to be a sequence of steps to follow
exactly. Maybe it will give ideas, however.
Got gcc from sunfreeware.com. Installed the packages as normal (pkgadd -d).
As root, create user "wad". An account for me.
Put subversion 1.0.5 into /export/home/svnbuild. Unzip, untar.
Printed out the INSTALL file for reference.
Create user "svn".
Put svn stuff into /export/home/svn
Made .profile for svn user, put in path.
Added /usr/local/bin to path so it finds gcc
* gcc fails* libiconv.so.2 not found.
tried: LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/openwin/lib <--- no help
Remove SMCgcc with "pkgrm SMCgcc".
Put it back.
* same problem*
Found libiconv package from sunfreeware.come
installed it.
gcc happy now
Tried http ./configure --with... --enable-dav --enable-so
* failed to find BerkeleyDB *
Maybe package doesn't have soure, which is needed by svn to link to it.
pkgrm to get rid of BerkeleyDB.
Download BDB from sleepycat (hope it has source code).
Tar failed. Bad solaris tar! (Solaris tar is incompatible with some .tar
files)
Download gnu tar from sunfreeware.com
install
mv /usr/sbin/tar _tar (get rid of the bad version)
ln /s /usr/local/bin/tar tar (link to the good one instead)
tar now works. Untarred BDB source tree.
int the tree:
cd build_unix
../dist/configure
Complaining about "ar" utility missing. Need package sunwbtool. Install from
Solaris CD.
Still no "ar".
Install SUNWsprot, SUNWhea, SUNWarc, SUNWlibm, SUNWdfbh, SUNWxwinc, SUNWsra,
SUNWsrh, SUNWtoo, SUNWlibm, SUNWlibC, SUNWscpu from solaris CD.
Still no "ar". Argh.
Found "ar" in /usr/ccs/bin
added to path.
../dist/configure gives error now: C compiler cannote create executable.
Likely a path problem.
Altered path. Didn't help.
Noticed it's using cc instead of gcc.
mv /usr/ucb/cc _cc
then:
../dist/configure <-- worked!
make install
Failed (I was user svn). make clean.
Try again as root.
happy.
In httpd, did:
./configure --enable-dat --enable-so
--with-BerkeleyDB=/usr/local/BerkeleyDB.4.2/lib
BDB not found
set LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/
still nothing
took off /lib on LD_LIBRARY_PATH
now ./configure finishes. Still doesn't find BDB.
continuing anyway: make
built svn, didn't build server because couldn't find BDB (of course).
Added :/usr/local/lib to the LD_LIBRARY_PATH and it found it!
LD_LIBRARY_PATH =
/usr/local/BerkeleyDB.4.2:/usr/local/BerkeleyDB.4.2/bin:/usr/local/BerkeleyD
B.4.2/include:/usr/local/lib
./configure --enable-dav --enable-so
make make install
Then to svn:
./configure --with-apsx=/usr/local/apache2/bin/apxs
rm usr/local/lib/libsvn*
make clean
make <---- resulted in "multiple include" warnings
make install
It's happy!
edit /usr/local/apache2/conf/httpd.conf as per INSTALL file.
svnadmin create repos
/usr/local/apache2/bin/apachectl start
svnadmin load repos < backup_repos_dumpfile
Edit httpd.conf
apache user = svn, group = blah
chown -R svn:blah repos
chmod -R 700 repos
verify .htpasswd has permissions of svn user.
