Hi Joshua,

unfortunately, i have no Solaris system around.
The problem seems not uncommon to Solaris, see e.g. https://lists.isc.org/pipermail/dhcp-users/2007-June/003884.html

Please try to add the following 3 lines to the begin of binder.c:

#define _XOPEN_SOURCE 500
#define _XOPEN_SOURCE_EXTENDED 1
#define __EXTENSIONS__

all the best
-gn
PS: the best auditorium for naviserver issues is at https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/naviserver-devel

I added the source you provided and got the following errors after running gmake.

gcc -O2 -DNDEBUG -Wall -fPIC -pipe -I../include -I"/usr/local/ns/include" -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -c -o binder.o binder.c

Thanks for your response, I will of course also check out the link you provided.

So I'd say re-run the configure script, and see if you can get those defines in, maybe by defining CC for the configure process (CC="gcc -Dsymbol=value -Danother=value ... " ./configure (etc, params for configure as before)

The direct reason you're getting this error, is because the compiler doesn't see some particular members to a struct. One step more indirectly, the struct definition is in a header file (a .h file) and is not being included.
