Recommended way to use autotools

Hi all, I've been wondering if there is a recommended way of using autotools when writing an Apache module? I've seen a tutorial http://threebit.net/tutorials/apache2_modules/tut1/tutorial1.html on this, but it was last updated in 2005, so I'm not sure if there are any better ways or things

APR feature detection

Hi guys, Is there any way that my module can detect which APR features are enabled in Apache? It relies on DBD, and if that's not available then my module just segfaults, which isn't very friendly. I'd prefer to give an error message to the user, telling them that DBD is required. Does anyone

Re: MySQL Virtual Host and Traffic Module

/template the virtual hosts. I myself have written a database-backed templating module that could be used for virtual hosting (http://www.dmi.me.uk/code/apache/mod_sqltemplate/) and I'm curious to see other approaches. Thanks, Dave Thanks, Vaughan -Original Message- From: Dave Ingram

Re: MySQL Virtual Host and Traffic Module

Vaughan, What I have so far are 2 filters which gather the inbound traffic and outbound traffic for each transaction. These work ok and when logging transactions to file all of the in/out byte amounts appear to be correct. The first problem however, is that each child has its own set of

The -f and -d flags for RewriteCond are for checking the file system, not environment variables, although they can use environment variables if necessary. For example: RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}/%{ENV:foo} -d would check that the folder named by the environment variable foo exists in the

Announcement: mod_sqltemplate

Hi all, A while ago, I discussed[1] the idea of a flexible SQL-based configuration templating module for Apache 2.2. I've since written the code, and (after letting it fall by the wayside for a couple of months), I'm ready for people to test it, poke it and break it (and then send me a bug

Re: Logging authentication requests

To clarify: Is it currently possible to log authentication requests (ideally both success and failure, individually)? If not, is it possible? Meant: is it currently possible to do this with Apache 2.2 (perhaps using an existing module)? If not, is it even theoretically possible? Dave
