[mapserver-users] mod_fcgid.so not found (but it's there!)

[Smith, Michael]

Thanks for the tip on using depends.exe.  There were some DLLs missing which I fixed by modifying the PATH so that they could be found.  But I still get the error message listed below and depends.exe log window shows this error regarding two DLLs in c:\ms4w\apache\bin:

Error: At least one module has an unresolved import due to a missing export function in an implicitly dependent module.
Error: Modules with different CPU types were found.

This is for LIBAPR-1.DLL and LIBAPRUTIL-1.DLL.

The google says that this error can be given for reasons other than non-finding, including "missing dependencies". Is it possible there's a dll that should be riding along with the so that you forgot to copy? You can use depends.exe to check the dependency list of the so and see if anything is missing.

I am using MS4W distribution v6.0.3 which includes bundled Apache 2.2.22, MapServer 6.0.3, and mod-fcgid 2.3.7.

I have a new 64-bit Win 2008 server, migrating from Win 2003 32-bit.

I copied everything over to the new server.  Everything works fine except FastCGI.

If I include mod_fcgid.so as a loaded module in httpd.conf, I get this error when starting Apache:

httpd: Syntax error on line 129 of C:/ms4w_306/Apache/conf/httpd.conf: Cannot load C:/ms4w_306/Apache/modules/mod_fcgid.so into server: The specified module could not be found.

And yet it is right there in C:/ms4w_306/Apache/modules:

C:\ms4w_306\Apache\modules>dir *fcgid.*
Volume in drive C has no label.
Volume Serial Number is 3495-008C

Directory of C:\ms4w_306\Apache\modules

               0 Dir(s)  78,668,070,912 bytes free

Same configuration works fine on my 32-bit Win2003 server.  Is this some 64-bit or Win2008 thing I somehow need to take care of?  My WMS will all work fine if I run them through 'regular' CGI, but when I switch on FCGI they break and of course I get the above error message when starting up Apache.
