Hello,
I'm trying to configure apache 2.2.4 on FreeBSD. I have unique
requirements for this box so i'm not using the port. I need to compile
everything statically so nothing uses shared libraries. On the configure
line i've tried:

--enable-static-support
--enable-static-support=yes

i've also tried the above with variants of --enable-static-programname
htpasswd, htdigest, etc. The problem is everything configures and builds,
but when i check the installation the executables are all dynamically
linked.
Any suggestions appreciated.
Thanks.
Dave.

Don't you have to explicitly _disable_ shared libraries

./configure --with-whatever --disable-shared

like that? Although, I'd guess you tried that.

Hello,
Yes. I did:

./configure --prefix=location --disable-shared --enable-static-support

and the original variants. I keep getting dynamic executables.
Thanks.
Dave.
