I am trying to install mod_wsgi 3.2 on Mac OSX 10.6.6 and am getting this error when I attempt to make
Installed assemblers are: /usr/bin/../libexec/gcc/darwin/x86_64/as for architecture x86_64 /usr/bin/../libexec/gcc/darwin/i386/as for architecture i386 lipo: can't open input file: /var/folders/XW/XWYalsEzG3Gkn+PhoNKF0k+++TI/-Tmp-//ccsEgbTa.out (No such file or directory) apxs:Error: Command failed with rc=65536 . make: * [mod_wsgi.la] Error 1
This is a late answer, but I found a solution in my searching and wanted to include it here for others. This error typically occurs because you are trying to build libraries for ppc architecture which won't work as xcode4 doesn't no longer includes support for ppc. You can get around this by setting the following in your environment before running your build (I put this in my .bash_profile so I don't beat my head against the wall later):
export ARCHFLAGS="-arch i386 -arch x86_64"
The latest mod_wsgi version is 3.3 for a start, why are you using 3.2? Second, there is a precompiled mod_wsgi.so binary for MacOS X which can be used for Apple supplied Python and Apache, so you do not need to compile it from source code and so avoid need to have installed XCode development tools. The precompile mod_wsgi.so is available from mod_wsgi download page.
As to the errors, it would appear to be a permissions problem for user that you are compiling as. That or you aren't using standard Apple supplied software and have somehow mixed up your PATH so it is grabbing disparate tools from different package distributions. Are you using just Apple tools or have you installed any of MacPorts, fink or HomeBrew?
Edit the Make file like:
CPPFLAGS = -I/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/include/python2.7 -DNDEBUG
CFLAGS = -Wc,"-arch i386" -Wc,"-arch x86_64" -Wc
LDFLAGS = -arch i386 -arch x86_64 -F/Library/Frameworks -framework Python -u _PyMac_Error
LDLIBS = -ldl -framework CoreFoundation
I had the same question In the end,I found I don't have write permission of '/usr/libexec/apache2/' then I add chmod +w to the folder,, then install success !!
Hope my answer can be a refer for some others
Good Luck!
