It is read and stuff done only at boot. When these modules are loaded at boot you do not need to kldload them. Nearest thing I can figure is they need to be loaded at boot, then Apache gets started right after. When this sequence applies there will not be these messages. For a server that stays up and online all the time this is not a problem. The only time I've ever seen this error is on apachectl restarts at times other than booting. And I don't really know why either.
Strictly speaking these thing are not required, they are only supposedly some small performance enhancer. I have also never seen Apache actually fail or exhibit any problems even in spite of this error message. But I don't apachectl restart (or reboot for that matter) very often. You could just as easily forgo this, e.g. not load the kernel modules and leave the Include etc/apache22/Includes/*.conf line in your httpd.conf and never notice any difference. This will load the no-accf.conf files from the includes directory and tell Apache not to look for these modules. Whether and/or how much these actually help Apache is probably debatable. They are supposed to be helpful performance-wise, but as to how much I couldn't say. But I have never seen this error/warning message actually be related to any problem, and since I don't reboot or restart all the time I don't get them. You could just as easily forego using them and probably never notice. -Mike _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
