Hi everyone,

I am trying to setup apache http server to work with tomcat 7
through the jk connector (version 1.2.40-src). My server is CentOs
release 6.5. I couldn't find the binary distribution of mod_jk for
CentOs release 6.5 on the net.

I am trying to compile it from source but I am getting this problem
when trying to execute the following:

- unzip the source - go to jk/native directory - run ./configure
--with-apxs=/usr/lib64/httpd/modules


whenever I run above I keep getting this:

configure: error: You must specify a valid --with-apxs path

Any ideas why I am getting this error?

- --with-apxs needs to be given the full path to the apxs program (in
httpd-devel package). So, if it's in /usr/lib64/httpd/modules (which
it shouldn't be), then you need to say:

$ ./configure --with-apxs=/usr/lib64/httpd/modules/apxs

On my Amazon Linux system (which is RHEL-compatible, which should
obviously be fairly similar to CentOS), apxs is in /usr/sbin/apxs

My local 64 bit CentOS 6.5 system:

[mdeggers@thor src]$ which apxs
/usr/sbin/apxs

[mdeggers@thor src]$ yum whatprovides /usr/sbin/apxs

Works as expected.
