Look at the <Directory near the top. In my case it's "/var/www/rd-bin"

Then go back to the rivendell source code.

Step 1. ./configure --libexecdir=/var/www/rd-bin    (or whatever your
Directory is from the rd-bin.conf)
Step 2 & 3 same as before (make etc.)

Don't do this -- you will end up going in a circle! That value at the top of that file is *determined by* the argument given to --libexecdir.

When running Rivendell's 'configure' script, you need to tell it two things about the system's Apache setup:

        --libexecdir -- Where to put the web content (both static and CGI 
scripts)

--sysconfdir -- Where to put Rivendell's configuration information that tells Apache how to process the elements specified by --libexecdir

Unfortunately, distros vary widely about where they put these sorts of items. For RHEL 6, the appropriate values are:

        --libexecdir=/var/www/rd-bin --sysconfdir=/etc/httpd/conf.d

OTOH, for certain versions of OpenSuSE (through 11.2) it was:

        --libexecdir=/srv/www/rd-bin --sysconfdir=/etc/apache2/conf.d

Bottom line, you just need to know how your distro of choice has packaged Apache. It's not something that Rivendell's configuration script can autodetect.

Cheers!
