I just tried to compile a 3rd party module as a DSO, and it seemed to work, but when apache tries to initialize the module, I get an error message: Syntax error on line 238 of /usr/local/etc/apache/httpd.conf: Cannot load /usr/local/libexec/apache/mod_auth_pgsql.so into server: /usr/local/libexec/apache/mod_auth_pgsql.so: Undefined symbol "PQexec" The module is mod_auth_pgsql 0.9.0, and it does support DSO. The symbol that the server cannot locate is in an external shared lib - libpg.so. I have tried various command line incantations while compiling the module as well as ensuring the loaders library cache contains the dir that the library is in (/usr/local/pgsql/lib). Reading the apache documentation on the DSO mechanism it suggests that there may be problems with this on non ELF architectures (which this is obviously not). Could someone help shed some light on this? For the meantime I will use static modules, but would *really* like to use DSO. As an FYI, I am using the apache13 port on FreeBSD 3.3-RELEASE. Thanks!
