Hi,

Did anyone successfully implement FrontPage extensions + mod_frontpage on a
RH 6.2 installation of freeVSD? I patched the Apache 1.3.14 SRPM from Red
Hat with Improved mod_frontpage 1.4.1 and installed FrontPage 2000
extensions, but does not work. I also noticed that httpd cannot be reached
from the browser eventhough it is running - this seem to happen for Apache
versions newer than 1.3.12 on RH 6.2.

I also tried patching the Apache 1.3.12 SRPM with Improved mod_frontpage
1.5.1, compiled and built fine, http functions properly/normally, but the
FrontPage client still says that FP extensions are not installed on the
server.

Is it necessary to insert the LoadModule and AddModule directives for
mod_frontpage into httpd.conf?

Below is what I did, please point out any mistakes:

1. Installed FrontPage extensions (/usr/local/frontpage ->
/usr/sbin/frontpage)
2. Downloaded Apache 1.3.12 SRPM, patched with Improved mod_frontpage 1.5.1,
built binary RPMS and installed
3. Copied /usr/sbin/frontpage to
/usr/share/freevsd/skel-repo/usr/local/frontpage
4. Edited /usr/share/freevsd/skel-repo/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf (Removed #
for Resource/AccessConfig)
5. Edited site-vs-batch.pl to create symbolic link for
/usr/local/frontpage -> /usr/bin/frontpage
6. Renamed we80.cnf to we8080.cnf.
7. Regenerated the skel and recreated virtual servers.
8. $ bevs vsone
9. $ cd /usr/local/frontpage/version4.0
10. $ ./bin/fpsrvadm.exe
11. Installed FP extensions for root web.
12. $ rebootvs
13. Attempted to Publish Web using FrontPage client (Failed)

Please advise.

Thank you very much,

Zen
