[users@httpd] building and installing on different servers, different directories
hi Apache gurus, we have -what I assume a rather typical situation of modern IT environment- no compiler on our production servers. So, the building of Apache will need to be done on (duh) development servers, that do not necessarily have the same directory structures as the target production server where the installation needs to be done. When I run the configure utility, I know that the prefix option will specify a different location for the installation than what otherwise would be the default location of /usr/local. But I also see that all the Makefiles in the different subdirectories are generated with hardcoded directory names of my development server. Directory names that do not exist on my production server. So the make install complains that it doesn't find the source files to install, since it looks for the directories that exist on the development server and which do not exist on the production server. So : how can I get the compiled set of files transferred to my production server and install them there from a different source directory tree ? thx in advance for your reactions Rob This message was sent using IMP, the Internet Messaging Program.
Re: [users@httpd] building and installing on different servers, different directories
Asuming both servers are pretty much same, ie same linux kernel and packages, why dont you install apache on the dev server under lets say /usr/local/apache2 and then transfer the complete apache2 directory onto prod server?

You can also create symbolic links for the missing directories.

Please, can you tell me how can I do this? I would like to get to manage virtual hosts with different domains and to have the possibility to disable some virtual host, but having enabled another virtual hosts. The a2dissite/a2ensite tools are part of the Debian-customized distribution of Apache. The tool actually removes the vhost configuration from the files included in the server's configuration. Apache does not even know that a disabled site exists. Here is my suggestion. Create a new vhost config with the filename starting with 000 (or enable the included default vhost). Set that vhost to show an Site Disabled error no matter what the request is. Now when you disable a site using a2dissite, you will get the error message from the default vhost. - Y

[users@httpd] Apache HTTP Server 2.2.22 Released
Apache HTTP Server 2.2.22 Released
The Apache Software Foundation and the Apache HTTP Server Project are
pleased to announce the release of version 2.2.22 of the Apache HTTP
Server (Apache). This version of Apache is principally a security
and bug fix release, including the following significant security fixes:
* SECURITY: CVE-2011-3368 (cve.mitre.org)
Reject requests where the request-URI does not match the HTTP
specification, preventing unexpected expansion of target URLs in
some reverse proxy configurations.
* SECURITY: CVE-2011-3607 (cve.mitre.org)
Fix integer overflow in ap_pregsub() which, when the mod_setenvif module
is enabled, could allow local users to gain privileges via a .htaccess
file.
* SECURITY: CVE-2011-4317 (cve.mitre.org)
Resolve additional cases of URL rewriting with ProxyPassMatch or
RewriteRule, where particular request-URIs could result in undesired
backend network exposure in some configurations.
* SECURITY: CVE-2012-0021 (cve.mitre.org)
mod_log_config: Fix segfault (crash) when the '%{cookiename}C' log format
string is in use and a client sends a nameless, valueless cookie, causing
a denial of service. The issue existed since version 2.2.17.
* SECURITY: CVE-2012-0031 (cve.mitre.org)
Fix scoreboard issue which could allow an unprivileged child process
could cause the parent to crash at shutdown rather than terminate
cleanly.
* SECURITY: CVE-2012-0053 (cve.mitre.org)
Fixed an issue in error responses that could expose httpOnly cookies
when no custom ErrorDocument is specified for status code 400.
The Apache HTTP Project thanks halfdog, Context Information Security Ltd,
Prutha Parikh of Qualys, and Norman Hippert for bringing these issues to
the attention of the security team.
We consider this release to be the best version of Apache available, and
encourage users of all prior versions to upgrade.
Apache HTTP Server 2.2.22 is available for download from:
http://httpd.apache.org/download.cgi
Please see the CHANGES_2.2 file, linked from the download page, for a
full list of changes. A condensed list, CHANGES_2.2.22 includes only
those changes introduced since the prior 2.2 release. A summary of all
of the security vulnerabilities addressed in this and earlier releases
is available:
http://httpd.apache.org/security/vulnerabilities_22.html
This release includes the Apache Portable Runtime (APR) version 1.4.5
and APR Utility Library (APR-util) version 1.4.2, bundled with the tar
and zip distributions. The APR libraries libapr and libaprutil (and
on Win32, libapriconv version 1.2.1) must all be updated to ensure
binary compatibility and address many known security and platform bugs.
APR-util version 1.4 represents a minor version upgrade from earlier
httpd source distributions, which previously included version 1.3.
Apache 2.2 offers numerous enhancements, improvements, and performance
boosts over the 2.0 codebase. For an overview of new features
introduced since 2.0 please see:
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/new_features_2_2.html
This release builds on and extends the Apache 2.0 API. Modules written
for Apache 2.0 will need to be recompiled in order to run with Apache
2.2, and require minimal or no source code changes.
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/httpd/httpd/branches/2.2.x/VERSIONING
When upgrading or installing this version of Apache, please bear in mind
that if you intend to use Apache with one of the threaded MPMs (other
than the Prefork MPM), you must ensure that any modules you will be
using (and the libraries they depend on) are thread-safe.

Re: [users@httpd] rewrite engine shows text instead of executes script
You can use meta tag in your head section to call your script for example meta http-equiv=refresh content=0;url= http://yourdomain.com/path/to/your/cgi-script.py; which will call your script immediately on index.html load. Or you can also use java script redirect in the body tag of index.html something like this: body onLoad=window.location= http://yourdomain.com/path/to/your/cgi-script.py; You can also use a relative path to your script in the examples above in regards to the index.html file so you can put something like ../cgi-bin/script.py instead http://yourdomain.com/path/to/your/cgi-script.py Igor On Wed, Feb 1, 2012 at 3:22 AM, Tim Johnson t...@akwebsoft.com wrote: * Igor Cicimov icici...@gmail.com [120130 18:11]: If I eliminate it, then I just a get an index page..
