The actual DBMS drivers are built into apr-util, or supplied
separately since they can be dynamically loaded. In your environment,
if it's supplied separately then just be sure you got it; otherwise,
if you're using a shared apr-util, it needs to be built for Oracle
support; otherwise (HTTPD using its own inbuilt apr-util) HTTPD will
need to be built for Oracle support.
Wasn't built with any DBD support libraries. Makes sense, when the
original package was built this whole idea of doing database queries
from within an Apache module just wasn't part of the considerations.
I've just verified the Solaris development zone where this was last
constructed is still available, and the person responsible for it
is re-familiarizing himself with it in preparation for rebuilding
with database support.
For a quick test, you could try just changing 'pgsql' to 'oracle' and
see what happens. I agree with others that 'DBDriver pgsql' asks for
the PostgreSQL driver.
Same results for "DBDriver oracle" so clearly my package needs
to be rebuilt for support of these additional concerns. Even
though the customer wants to use an Oracle DB, I think we'll
build this just for ODBC, since there are apparently unwelcome
licensing requirements for the supporting Oracle libraries that
are not even going to be considered for the multiple hosts running
Apache that will need this authentication. They'll use ODBC
to talk to the odbc listener on the licensed Oracle system instead.
So, we need to add --with-SOMETHING and/or --enable-SOMETHING to get
the odbc driver built, right? Reading the configuration docs at
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/programs/configure.html
and trying to find something referring to database drivers or
something like that, the only thing I see is the --with-apr=DIR
or FILE configuration option. It's clear as mud to me, sorry.
