[fpc-devel] Strange things with the apache header files on Linux

[ABorka]

When copying the files from httpd22 dir to my project directory and 
recompiling them with my project the record sizes are OK and same as the 
C compiled apache module.

Yet, the apache module compiled with FPC/Lazarus is not working. The 
hooked DefaultHandler function is never called, just an empty web page 
is returned. Everything works under Windows, but not on Linux.
