Hi 
I have to completely replace the Apache 1.3 HTTP server with Apache 2.2.

In Apache 1.3 modules like mod_fastcgi, mod_perl and mod_oprocmgr are

1) If our application does not use any CGI or perl scripts, Is it necessary

to have the modules like mod_perl and mod_fastcgi to be present in the

Wrong list.  This is a programming list, not the user list.  But just so 
you don't go away empty handed, your application only requires mod_perl 
or mod_fastcgi if you hook into them from your apache module.



2) mod_oprocmgr is configured in Apache 1.3 and when I am looking to
configure the mod_oprocmgr for Apache 2.2, the module (.so) file is not
present. Now my question is - Is this module not required in Apache 2.2? If
it is required, how could I install and configure this module. 
  
Apache is not allowed to release an oracle-specific module.  You will 
have to install this on your own.


Thanks!

Tarun,

First off, this forum is for Apache C Module development, not
configuration, so you are a bit off topic.

The quick and dirty is this:  No module is *needed*, Apache can run
just fine without any modules.  It will be very limited in what it can
do and how you can configure it, but it can run just fine.

If you don't need cgi or perl, than no you don't need to load the modules.

As far as mod_oprocmgr, I don't know what that does for you.  You can
either do some research and find out what it does and see if that
applies to you or you can just see how things work without.  If all is
well, then you are good.  Personally I would do some research.

 1) If our application does not use any CGI or 
 perl scripts, Is it necessary to have the modules 
 like mod_perl and mod_fastcgi to be present in

  Even if you WERE using CGI, neither mod_perl nor 
mod_fastcgi would be required.  mod_perl wouldn't be 
recommended unlss you either a) want to write Apache 
modules in Perl or b) run your entire site almost 
completely from Perl, so that most hits are to CGI 
scripts.

mod_oprocmgr is the old outdated module for Oracle's
JServ.  It's not needed if you're not using Oracle, 
it's not needed if you're not using JServ, and it's 
no longer the right module anyway.

   Two minutes on Google would have answered both 
of these questions.  See:
