Build nginx on Mac OS X mavericks

Server NGINX
1

Hello,
Has anyone tried building nginx code on Mac ? I get the following error
while building. Have installed pcre and other needed libraries

*src/mail/ngx_mail_handler.c:1152:30: **error: *use of undeclared
identifier ‘sasl_callback_ft’; did you mean

  •  'sasl_callback_t'?*

  callbacks[i].proc = (sasl_callback_ft)&ngx_mail_sasl_log;

  •                         ^*

*/usr/include/sasl/sasl.h:349:3: note: *‘sasl_callback_t’ declared here

} sasl_callback_t;

  • ^*

*src/mail/ngx_mail_handler.c:1157:30: **error: *use of undeclared
identifier ‘sasl_callback_ft’; did you mean

  •  'sasl_callback_t'?*

  callbacks[i].proc = (sasl_callback_ft)&ngx_mail_sasl_pauthorize;

  •                         ^*

*/usr/include/sasl/sasl.h:349:3: note: *‘sasl_callback_t’ declared here

} sasl_callback_t;

  • ^*

2 errors generated.

make[2]: *** [objs/src/mail/ngx_mail_handler.o] Error 1

make[1]: *** [install] Error 2

make: *** [build] Error 2

It doesn’t looks like nginx source code. Likely you are using
something with local or 3rd party patches. Unmodified version is
available from nginx: download.

Yep, we do have some local and 3rd party patches. But still not sure why
it
doesn’t build on mac and throws that error. Same code with patches
builds
fine on ubuntu linux.
@Kevin: Thats what i followed for building the latest nginx and that
worked
well. Great post.

Thanks
