Error when building Nginx related to quiche module

183 views Asked by At

I currently have the default Ninx 1.22 on my Debian Bookworm server, and since I need HTTP/3, I need to replace it with Nginx 1.25 which can support HTTP/3.

So I'm trying to build Nginx 1.25.3 from source with the same flags as the previous Nginx installation, plus HTTP/3. I downloaded BoringSSL and built it, following this tutorial.

Then to get the previous compile flags on the current Nginx, I do nginx -V, I remove the --with-http_perl_module=dynamic flag (I guess we don't need Perl in 2023, right?), and I add the --with-http3-module and --with-cc-opt="-I../boringssl/include" --with-ld-opt="-L../boringssl/build/ssl -L../boringssl/build/crypto" flags, as explained in this tutorial. So all in all my Nginx 1.25.3 build configuration command is:

./configure --with-ld-opt='-Wl,-z,relro -Wl,-z,now -fPIC' \
--prefix=/usr/share/nginx \
--conf-path=/etc/nginx/nginx.conf  \
--http-log-path=/var/log/nginx/access.log \

--with-http_v3_module \
--with-cc-opt="-I../boringssl/include" \
--with-ld-opt="-L../boringssl/build/ssl -L../boringssl/build/crypto"

Build configuration with BoringSSL / OpenSSL QUIC seems successful, since I got this among the output:

...
checking for OpenSSL library ... found
checking for OpenSSL QUIC support ... found
checking for OpenSSL QUIC compatibility ... found
...

But then, the compilation fails when doing make:

make -f objs/Makefile
make[1]: Entering directory '/root/nginx-1.25.3'
cc -c -pipe  -O -W -Wall -Wpointer-arith -Wno-unused-parameter -Werror -g -I../boringssl/include -I src/core -I src/event -I src/event/modules -I src/event/quic -I src/os/unix -I /usr/include/libxml2 -I objs \

What's happening?
