In the Rivendell build system, there are two arguments to ‘configure’ that
control this sort of thing:
--libexecdirdir=<dir>
The location to install web content (both static and scripts)
Value on CentOS 7: ‘/var/www/rd-bin’
--sysconfdir=<dir>
The location to install httpd configuration snippets
Value on CentOS 7: ‘/etc/httpd/conf.d’
(Note that the ‘Value on CentOS 7’ fields are merely examples; on other distros
these paths can be and are different!)
If you’re using Autoconf for your build system, then just use the @libexecdir@
and @sysconfdir@ variables to get the target paths. If you’re just using a flat
Makefile, then provide some variables with reasonable defaults and some
directions to the user to set these to the desired locations.

Ouch! Why the DB access? Are we missing something from the Web API that you
need?
