Hi all, Thanks for your help.
I am using the GCC compiler.The reason behind using the 2.0.XX is , my SAP application is supported by Apache 2.0.xx version only and not by 2.2.XX and 2.4.XX. I have set the following AIX enviroment Variables before Compile Step. CFLAGS="-maix64"; export CFLAGS; echo $CFLAGS LDFLAGS="-maix64"; export LDFLAGS; echo $LDFLAGS EXTRA_LDFLAGS_SHLIB="-b64 -L/opt/freeware/lib/gcc-lib/powerpc-ibm-aix5.3.0.0/3.3.2 -lgcc -L/opt/freeware/lib/gcc-lib/powerpc-ibm-aix5.3.0.0/3.3.2/ppc64 -lgcc -L/opt/freeware/lib/gcc-lib/powerpc-ibm-aix5.3.0.0/3.3.2/pthread -lgcc -L/opt/freeware/lib/gcc-lib/powerpc-ibm-aix5.3.0.0/3.3.2/pthread/ppc64 -lgcc"; export EXTRA_LDFLAGS_SHLIB; echo $EXTRA_LDFLAGS_SHLIB OBJECT_MODE=64; export OBJECT_MODE; echo $OBJECT_MODE Awaiting your inputs Regards, Sandeep On Tue, Jan 17, 2012 at 11:26 PM, William A.
