Fails to build Yaws on Mac OS X 10.9

问题

I downloaded Yaws 1.98, but when executing ./configure && make if fails with the message provided below:

gcc -c -g -O2 -I/usr/include/security -m64 -I/usr/include/pam -DHAVE_SENDFILE -I"/usr/local/lib/erlang/usr/include" -I/usr/include/pam/  epam.c
epam.c:2:10: fatal error: 'pam_appl.h' file not found
#include <pam_appl.h>
         ^
1 error generated.
make[1]: *** [epam.o] Error 1
make: *** [all] Error 1

Any suggestions on how to solve this? is there any other way I can run the latest version of Yaws on Mac OS X 10.9?

回答1:

The pam_appl.h include file is normally found in /usr/include/security on OS X 10.6 and higher, and that's installed as part of the Command Line Tools installation. Normally you would run sudo xcode-select --install from your Terminal command line to install the command line tools, but that sometimes fails — see Failed to install command line tools on OSX Mavericks for details and workarounds. Of course, you can always download the command line tools install package from Apple's Developer site (registration required).

Since your error message shows you already have gcc, be aware that it's also installed as part of the command line tools installation.

This shows that pam development library is not available in you mac OS for YAWS to get compiled successfully.

I do not have experience in installing pam-devel in mac but on unix based machine yum install pam-devel would help me installing. Please check if something helps here http://www.webmin.com/udownload.html
