apache httpd build

gmartin · 12-22-2007, 09:37 AM

I'm trying to recompile httpd based on Pat's SlackBuild script. The script execute this line which I guess patches the config.layout file

Code:

zcat $CWD/config.layout.diff.gz | patch --verbose -p1 || exit 1

but there is no such file in the source for 2.2.6.

Can I safely comment this out?

I see in the current changelog Apache was upgraded to 2.2.6

+--------------------------+
Tue Oct 16 14:51:30 CDT 2007
---snip---
n/httpd-2.2.6-i486-1.tgz: Upgraded to httpd-2.2.6.

and in slackware-current source n/httpd/ I see

config.layout.diff.gz
http://slackware.cs.utah.edu/pub/sla...source/n/httpd

So what's the problem?

Or you could use src2pkg to build a new package of apache.

OK - so what is the problem. None with the build after I dl'd the patch.

However....
The reason I was recompiling httpd is becuase I upgraded to openldap 2.4 and on restart of apache I was getting an error the libldap-2.3.so.0 wasn't available. I figured a recompile was in order. Once finished the same error arose so I created a symlink from pointing to ibldap-2.4.so.0

Still don't understand the why yet, but it appears to work.

You could upgrade apache too.

When I recompiled httpd, I went to 2.2.6. Looks like that's the latest version. Is that what you were suggesting?

I suggested downloading apache from current.
