apache - Apache and several modules ChangeLog

HOWTO


# Apache 1.3.39 + modules
# =============
# Prerequisites (other than "obvious" ones):
# Perl
# OpenSSL
# MySQL (if installing PHP)

# mod_frontpage used to be covered here to get Apache working with FrontPage
# Server Extensions.  FrontPage has been discontinued by Micro$oft, they've
# pulled the docs and downloads.  More info is currently available here, but
# it may dissappear at some point:
# http://rtr.com/fpsupport/

# TODO (maybe):
# Add lingerd - http://www.iagora.com/about/software/lingerd/
# Add mod_throttle - http://www.snert.com/Software/mod_throttle/

# Create directories for backup, tarball, and source:
mkdir -p -m 0700 ~/installed/apache ~/src/apache

# Make sure the perl CPAN module (and it's prerequisites) is current and
# configured:
su -c "perl -MCPAN -e 'install Bundle::CPAN'"


# mm 1.4.2 (memory management library used by Apache)
# ========

# DO NOT blindly run it.
#
# If apache is not already installed, skip this part.

# =-=-=-= PHP as a DSO =-=-=-=

# Remove the gd patch we used with PHP 4.2.3:
rm -f ~/installed/apache/php-4.2.3-gd-2.0.8.patch

# See the mysql howto if you need to install MySQL for PHP (the build
# instructions below for PHP assume that it's already installed)

# Everything here other than PHP itself is optional.  If you don't know what
# you need to build into it, write me for an educated guess ;-)

# GD support for PHP
# ==================
# gd is a library that lets you create jpegs, pngs, etc. (depending on
# how you build it).  If you don't install it, leave out --with-gd,
# --with-jpeg-dir, and --with-zlib-dir when building PHP.  If you want
# to build the version of gd that now comes with PHP use it as shown below.
# If you want to use the 'real' GD, pass the gd directory to it.  No idea
# how/if that will work.
#
# GD has it's own HOWTO

# libjpeg support for PHP
# =======================
# This will build libjpeg support into PHP.  If you don't want to build it
# in, leave out --with-jpeg-dir
#
# libjpeg has it's own HOWTO

# gettext support for PHP
# =======================
# This will build gettext support into PHP.  Not positive, but I think this
# was required for --enable-mime-magic.
#
# gettext has it's own HOWTO

# IMAP support for PHP
# ====================
# This is most commonly required by IMP or another webmail application.  If
# you don't install this, leave out --with-imap and --with-imap-ssl when
# building PHP.
#
# uw-imap has it's own HOWTO

# LDAP support for PHP
# ====================
# This will build LDAP support into PHP via the OpenLDAP libraries.
#
# OpenLDAP has it's own HOWTO

# net/ucd-snmp support for PHP
# ============================
# Note: ucd-snmp and net-snmp are SNMP tools.  ucd-snmp is the 4.x and
# lower versions, net-snmp is the 5.x versions.  If you don't want to build
# ucd/net-snmp support into PHP, leave out --with-snmp and
# --enable-ucd-snmp-hack
#
# ucd-snmp has it's own HOWTO and
# net-snmp has it's own HOWTO

# mcrypt support for PHP
# ======================
# This will build mcrypt encryption support into PHP.  Pass --with-mcrypt to
# enable this.
#
# mcrypt has it's own HOWTO

# DOM support for PHP
# ===================
# DOM support requires libxml.  Pass --with-dom to enable this.
#
# libxml has it's own HOWTO

# iconv support for PHP
# =====================
# glibc itself supports iconv and of course so does libiconv.  Pass
# --with-iconv to enable this.
#
# libiconv has it's own HOWTO


# PHP 4.4.7
# =========
# Version 4.4.6 failed to build for me with imap 2004g installed.  It was OK
# with 2006f.

# Testing your configuration, (re)starting Apache
# ===============================================
# Become root
su

# Make any additional changes in httpd.conf that you still need to.  When
# you're done, make sure that Apache doesn't have any complaints about it's
# configuration by running this:
/usr/local/apache/bin/apachectl configtest

# If the newly upgraded copy of Apache is still running (if so, it may be
# barfing errors), stop it:
/usr/local/apache/bin/apachectl stop

# If you created a temporary copy, stop it and zap it:
test -d /usr/local/apache-tmp &&
( /usr/local/apache-tmp/bin/apachectl stop
   sleep 2
   killall httpd > /dev/null 2>&1
   sleep 2
   killall -9 httpd > /dev/null 2>&1
   rm -r /usr/local/apache-tmp )

# And (re-)start it with SSL turned on (use 'start' if you didn't install
# mod_ssl):
/usr/local/apache/bin/apachectl startssl

# Become yourself again
exit
