Knowing absolutely nothing about the platform, and assuming you're not comfortable doing your own autoconf regeneration, I'd just s/ aix5/aix6/g in ./configure (i.e. edit the file) and see where you end up -- maybe it'll work, maybe it won't, but my guess is it would be an extremely crude starting point that might be usable after setting appropriate environment variables.
Ok... I'm not 100% comfortable doing autoconf regenration. but happy to run any tests where needed and reply with logs.
If you're willing to help the Project validate new autoconf files, that would be really helpful (I'm guessing we're limited in access to AIX nowadays), and it would save you from having to do such disgusting things in future releases. You can follow up to the ITS via e-mail if that's an area of interest.
Absoutely... I had hoped to use GNU GCC and the full GNU stack on AIX... but the gnu stack is poorly supported on AIX so I was forced to go down the IBM xL Path, which is a bit of a learning curve for me
too.

"bash -x ./configure"?
Tried that, and my aix compile machine has no bash :( ... but ./ configure seems to call itself and then becomes less verbose, the next time I had time to debug it I was planning to find out where configure was doing it and add a -x in there too. And log all those results to a file.

-- I think this is the prolbem, shl_load, looks like I may need another include or figure out why it's complaining.
I understand that "ERROR" is an eye opener, but please realize that autoconf basically just tries everything and uses anything that doesn't error out. If shl_load isn't The Right Thing on AIX, this is a non-issue.
Cheers... I'll run through what the autoconf does for OpenSSL since that compiled fine on aix, and see what quirks it's doing that OpenLDAP
isn't.
Cheers

I've compiled 2.4.23 on AIX 6.1 with the following settings:
export PATH=/usr/vacpp/bin:/usr/vac/bin:$PATH export CC=cc export CXX=xlC export CONFIG_SHELL=/usr/bin/bash export CONFIG_ENV_ARGS=/usr/bin/bash export CFLAGS="-qmaxmem=16384 -DSYSV -D_AIX -D_AIX32 -D_AIX41 -D_AIX43 -D_AIX51 -D_AIX52 -D_AIX53 -D_AIX61 -D_ALL_SOURCE -DFUNCPROTO=15 -O -I/opt/freeware/include -g -I/opt/pware/Berkeley/latest/include -L/opt/pware/Berkeley/latest/lib" export CPPFLAGS=$CFLAGS export CXXFLAGS=$CFLAGS export LIBS="-lpthread" export F77=xlf export FFLAGS="-qmaxmem=16384 -O -I/opt/freeware/include -I/opt/pware/Berkeley/latest/include" export LD=ld export LDFLAGS="-L/opt/freeware/lib -Wl,-bmaxdata:0x80000000 -L/opt/pware/Berkeley/latest/lib" export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/pware/Berkeley/latest
./configure --prefix=/opt/pware/openldap/2.4.23 --with-openssl --with-shared=yes --enable-ppolicy --enable-unique --enable-ssl --enable-debug
I had to apply a patch which replaxced all occurrences of aix5 with aix 6 in aclocal.m4 , and in build/config.guess as well as contrib/ldapc++/config.guess the *:AIX:*:[45]) lines with *:AIX:*:[456]). Worked a charm. Your paths will probably differ ... and I'm pretty sure bash was a must, but you can get it from http://www.perzl.org/aix/index.php?n=Main.Bash
hth
That is brilliant, I will have a go with the above settings next week, but that is exactly what I was looking for.
A huge help, and much appreciated!
