Hello people, yesterday I started trying to compile nginx with http\_perl\_module, but, at the end of the compilation, the linkeditor gets confused about the archtecture it’s being linked. I’m using Mac OS/X 10.6.8. Here is part of the output I get from terminal: gcc -c -pipe -O -W -Wall -Wpointer-arith -Wno-unused-parameter -Werror -g -arch x86\_64 -arch i386 -arch ppc -g -pipe -fno-common -DPERL\_DARWIN -fno-strict-aliasing -I/usr/local/include -I/System/Library/Perl/5.10.0/darwin-thread-multi-2level/CORE -I src/core -I src/event -I src/event/modules -I src/os/unix -I …/pcre-8.31 -I objs -I src/http -I src/http/modules -I src/http/modules/perl -o objs/src/http/modules/perl/ngx\_http\_perl\_module.o src/http/modules/perl/ngx\_http\_perl\_module.c /usr/libexec/gcc/powerpc-apple-darwin10/4.2.1/as: assembler (/usr/bin/…/libexec/gcc/darwin/ppc/as or /usr/bin/…/local/libexec/gcc/darwin/ppc/as) for architecture ppc not installed Installed assemblers are: /usr/bin/…/libexec/gcc/darwin/x86\_64/as for architecture x86\_64 /usr/bin/…/libexec/gcc/darwin/i386/as for architecture i386 lipo: can’t open input file: /var/folders/QZ/QZCif6epHb85Dwl9qHtI9E+++TM/-Tmp-[//ccbScbid.out](https://ccbScbid.out) (No such file or directory) make[1]: \*\*\* [objs/src/http/modules/perl/ngx\_http\_perl\_module.o] Error 2 make: \*\*\* [build] Error 2 Someone have seem this previously? It seems it’s a problem with the ppc linkedition, but I don’t know why it is trying to link against ppc arch… Any advice is welcome 🙂 PS: without the perl module, the compilation is clean… Thanks, Gabriel Duarte Posted at Nginx Forum: > **[nginx with --with-http\_perl\_module compilation problems](https://forum.nginx.org/read.php?2,233440,233440#msg-233440)** > > Hello people, yesterday I started trying to compile nginx with http\_perl\_module, but, at the end of the compilation, the linkeditor gets confused about the archtecture it's being linked.

Hi Gabriel, it looks like the problem because of your perl. Could you try different perl (modern version 5.16.2), compiled without ppc arch.
