Building Apache |  |
 |
This document should help you, the system administrator, compile Apache 1.3.x with mod_perl, mod_php, mod_python and other Apache modules. If you wish to enable SSL, I have also written sections on how to do so.
The method of installation I describe is the DSO method, which is newer and takes just a few minutes to get everything up and running. This is not to say that this method is a bad, quick "hack". It is the most common way of installation when dealing with Apache and it's modules. This method is much better for troubleshooting and even easily upgradeable.
Many of you may be wondering why this document does not (yet) cover Apache 2.0. I feel that Apache 2.0, as it's still in beta releases currently, is not stable for serious web servers. Once it is, this document will be upgraded.
If you run across any problems, or if there are sections that you feel I should add, please email me at afra _at_ prongs.org .
