Ok, having seen some other postings, I realise that apache as compiled on unix boxes puts modules in /usr/local/apache/libexec, e.g., /usr/local/apache/libexec/mod_jk.so. Presumably then, an apache installation is aware of the equivalent of APACHE_HOME. The location of the standard modules in the apache RPMs is /usr/lib/apache, e.g., /usr/lib/apache/mod_mime.so. Does this mean that the references to, e.g., libexec/mod_jk.so should be replaced with relative paths mod_jk.so, or with absolute paths? How then are the LoadModule commands in httpd.conf, which specify modules/mod_*.so, interpreted? > One of the references to libexec/mod_jk.so is in the section on "Using > ApacheConfig" inthe AJP config page.
