Port mod_proxy_html does not build universal

[frans@…]

Despite changing macports.conf (arch and universal_archs) and variants.conf (+universal) the mod_proxy_html does not build universal. It only builds i386.

With the arch command my system (10.5) reports i386. Adding +universal to the command line

sudo port install mod_proxy_html +universal

does not build other than i386 (checked with file command).

It doesn't claim to build universal (doesn't have a universal variant). As the port has no maintainer, I'm going to close this. If someone wants to provide a patch to add a universal variant they can reopen.

I'm hoping someoue out there has managed to successfully install the Apache mod_proxy_html module. I'm close, I've managed to get MacPorts to successfully *compile* the module, but the implementation into Apache is causing me grief:

[ns2:/etc/apache2] root# apachectl configtest httpd: Syntax error on line 168 of /private/etc/apache2/httpd.conf: Cannot load /opt/local/apache2/modules/mod_proxy_html.so into server: dlopen(/opt/local/apache2/modules/mod_proxy_html.so, 10): no suitable image found. Did find:\n\t/opt/local/apache2/modules/mod_proxy_html.so: mach-o, but wrong architecture

I've tried both manual compiling (a miserable failure) and MacPorts (which worked, but gives me the same problem). I've tested the file, and sure enough it's PPC, but I think I need a universal, which I can't figure out how to coax from MacPorts:

[ns2:/etc/apache2] root# file /opt/local/apache2/modules/mod_proxy_html.so /opt/local/apache2/modules/mod_proxy_html.so: Mach-O bundle ppc

Is it even possible to get this to run on the Mac???????

I have no idea how to get a proper architecture out of MacPorts, and my attempts at apxs have been a horrible disaster... anyone? Please? So damn close, but unix is causing way too much grief just to get an apache module installed, for the love of god!

Don't reopen this unless you have a patch and/or are volunteering to maintain this port. If you need help with configuring MacPorts, try the macports-users list.
