Looks like you have your own copy of perl-5.26.1.

So the build will be using the options set while building perl-5.26.1.

The error here is due to the option "-Wl,-brtl", replace this with just -brtl.

Thanks,

Yes, I have built my own perl 5.26.1.

Where is the mod_perl make getting "-Wl,-brtl"? Or, where or how do I replace "-Wl,-brtl" with -brtl?

Thanks

Check the Config_heavy.pl file which will have most of the configuration settings.

Thanks,

/usr/opt/perl5_64/lib/5.26.1/aix-thread-multi-64all/Config_heavy.pl

Neither have "-Wl,-brtl".

However,/usr/opt/perl5_64/lib/5.26.1/aix-thread-multi-64all/Config_heavy.pl has this:

ccdlflags='-brtl -bdynamic -bE:/usr/local/lib/perl5/5.26.1/aix-thread-multi-64all/CORE/perl.exp'

/usr/opt/perl5_64/lib/5.26.1/aix-thread-multi-64all/Config_heavy.pl has this:

ldflags='-brtl -bdynamic -L/usr/local/lib -b64'

Any suggestions?

Please also check the apr-1-config file.

is in the apr-1-config.  Do you suggest I change it?

Since ld is invoked separately to create a shared library it isn't able to recognize -W option.

If it is passed through the compiler then we don't see this error.

You can change this apr-1-config file, but it would kind of workaround.

It would be better if we see how apr was built and correct.

Thanks,
