Need help: (re-)build a module

                 Key: AXIS-2590
                 URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AXIS-2590
             Project: Apache Axis
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Stefan Grubisic


Hello,
 
at first i have to say that my english isn't very well. But i hope you will 
understand all i write.
 
So now the Problem:
I use the module "mod_vhost_alias" for a Freewebhosting-Project. The module 
works well, but we need three changes and now i want to do them with some 
friends. But here is the Problem, we don't know 'how'. At first we searched the 
API to understand the sourcecode, all ok...
 
This are the changes we need:
1. checking, whether the virtual document root exists, because of the 404-Error 
(not nice :) )
2. in the "Apache Environment Variables" is the DocumentRoot not changed to the 
virtual document root. It's the one you wrote in the httpd.conf.
3. something like include command to include a file in that you can write 
user-specific Apache and PHP Options; for example the php_value command, 
becuase each "virtual Host" can have his own "configuartion".
 
1. We know how to check for a directory (i think they is an apache own function 
for this, isn't it?), but we don't know where. We thought it could be in the 
function "vhost_alias_set".
2. We don't know, how we can set the document root out of the virtual path.
    In the http_core.c file we found "conf->ap_document_root". But how can we 
change this option out of a module function?
3. We know how to read a file, but how can we include the content of this file 
to the vHost?
 
 
Why do we need this? It's easy to say:
as I already said is it a freewebhosting-project and so we have a lot of 
vHosts. Actually we write them all in the config. Nearly 2500 vHosts. So the 
Apache needs very long for startup. To reduce this time, whe decied us for this 
module and for a perfect use for us, we want to make these changes.
 
 
Many questions, sorry, but this is our first programming action for Apache. but 
we hope, you can help us to resolve this problems.
 
Best regards
Stefan Grubisic
