Hello, LDM>Having to compile, install, integrate everything yourself is a huge LDM>waste of time. Your are duplicating all the efforts put in by the LDM>distributions, for zero added value. Huh? Having control over what modules go into your Apache, plus having one compiled on your machine for your version, is zero added value? I think most people on this list would disagree with you. Most of us who depend on Apache build our own for one reason or another. You can generally make an Apache that fulfills your needs and no more which consumes less memory and has less dependencies than a prebuilt binary from somewhere. And being tied to a vendor release schedule probably qualifies as far more of an "upgrade nightmare" than having to occasionally pull out the text file where you put your build procedure.

SSL Installation Questions - Help
Hi all, So I went ahead and tried to install apache-ssl and am following the instructions to the T. I've acquired: mod_perl-1.26.tar.gz openssl-0.9.6c.tar.gz apache_1.3.22.tar.gz apache_1.3.22+ssl_1.47.tar.gz I received no errors when installing openssl-0.9.6c. The first problem comes up when I run ./FixPatch : /home/me/downloads/apache_1.3.22/ ./FixPatch Your version of patch is OK. Searching for a usable OpenSSL installation or source directory Looks like you are using OpenSSL, adjusting app name OpenSSL sources were found in: /home/me/downloads/openssl-0.9.6c OpenSSL needs updating to include a function to read a specified number of bytes from EGD - if you haven't applied the patch already and are using OpenSSL 0.9.5a, then it needs applying Do you want me to apply the OpenSSL EGD patch for you? [n] n OK, I won't apply the OpenSSL patch. OpenSSL installation found in: /usr/local/ssl /usr Using the source version of OpenSSL found in /home/me/downloads/openssl-0.9.6c If this is not what you want stop now and specify the path to OpenSSL explicitly. Do you want me to apply the fixed-up Apache-SSL patch for you?

I then move forward to make and install mod_perl and apache as directed: perl Makefile.PL USE_APACI=1 EVERYTHING=1 DO_HTTPD=1 SSL_BASE=/usr/local/ssl APACHE_SRC=../apache_1.3.22/src APACHE_PREFIX=/usr/local/apachessl All on one line of course...and everything looks fine. Then: make && make install (the test has never passed on my system, and I've installed the non ssl version which is currently up and running - for months - without issue) Then cd ../apache_... and: make certificate But my system responds with: make: *** No rule to make target `certificate'. Stop. Hmmm. What has gone wrong? Also, when I check the httpsd.conf file, I see no reference to SSL directives anywhere. Are the SSL directives supposed to be in the httpds.conf file or am I required to cut and paste them in from the examples? Thanks, Kirk eCap
