I hate to re-post during the holiday season but in this case I am totally out of any ideas.
The problem is that Apache is running correctly so far as I can see and I want to add mod_fcgid, so I downloaded and compiled it (using apxs to create a loadable module) and everything works fine. But when the LoadModule command is executed the module doesn't load and issues the following message: httpd: Syntax error on line 99 of /usr/apache-2.4.3/conf/httpd.conf: Cannot load modules/mod_fcgid.so into server: /usr/apache-2.4.3/modules/mod_fcgid.so: undefined symbol: ap_unixd_setup_child Line 99 of httpd.conf is the request to load mod_fcgid This is (obviously?) a programming error but my programming skills are rather rudimentary and I have no idea how to approach this. Can anyone help? Details: compiled using gcc on a Red Hat RHEL6.3 system. Apache-2.4.3.
