apache recompile failed : mod_deflate

[bazzii]

Hi all,

I had tried to re-compile apache with a new module mod_deflate. But it failed. Then I tried to apply the patch. The details are given below.

Patch From : http://ilia.ws/uploads/patches/mod_deflate-1.0.21i.tar.bz2

Applied mod_defalte.patch on top of Apache 1.3.37
copied mod_defalte.c into the src/modules/extra directory
Added --activate-module=src/modules/extra/mod_deflate.o to my configure

After running the configure.apache_ssl ... I got the below Error...

----------------------------
ar cr libextra.a mod_frontpage.o mod_deflate.o
ar: mod_deflate.o: No such file or directory
make[4]: *** [libextra.a] Error 1
make[3]: *** [all] Error 1

make: *** [build] Error 2

*** The make has failed, do you want to try to make again? (y,n):

Can you guys can help me here ? .... Or Is there is any option to apply the module mod_deflate to apache 1.3.37 ?

Waiting for the reply

Bazzii ....
