What problem with "make"

[micericewice]

I have to build exactly Apache-1.3.41 on Linux. I did succesfull before with this configure:

# ./configure --prefix=/usr --sbindir=/usr/sbin --libexecdir=/usr/lib/apache --sysconfdir=/etc/apache --includedir=/usr/include/apache --datadir=/var/www --localstatedir=/var/www --logfiledir=/var/log/apache --runtimedir=/var/run --enable-module=so --disable-module=auth_db --disable-module=auth_dbm

But, after I have some other installation test (php, httpd-2.x, etc), I try to reinstall apache-1.3.41, it got errors. With simple config:

# ./configure --prefix=$HOME/apache_1 --enable-module=so
-> it's succesful, then I run make cmd

# make
-> it's got errors:

Please help me check it out! I'm newbie in Linux

Do you really HAVE to build it? Are you sure that just getting the apache package from repositories won't be enough for you? (I mean, you are a newbie and I am not, and I never needed to do that).

right now it does not seem easy to debug what is going on, but I can say that this is the part where things fail:

ar cr libregex.a regcomp.o regexec.o regerror.o regfree.o
*** buffer overflow detected ***: ar terminated

It seems like a bad bug with the ar program. At this moment you don't have a lot of options, unfortunately. Unless you decide to try the repository (software center) instead.

Edit: Does the apache version you are attempting to install have specific gcc and libc requirements? Maybe they don't match.

Yep! I think "ar" program got a bug because I got same problem when compiling Buildroot.
I have to install exactly apache-1.3.41 for the purpose building the same environment of the Embedded system on a kits
Do you have any suggestion for this case. I installed it successful before, but I don't know why it got stuck now

which version of binutils are you using? have you checked bug reports for binutils?
