Hello Rainer,
First, that for all the help..
The examples I gave are from the make. The confusing part is some docs
just show doing the configure, make, copy the mod, make clean on the Apache
site docs.
I have also seem some docs show doing configure, make, make install, copy the
mod, make clean.
I am not sure if I need the make install?
make install does nothing more than simply copying the .so file to the
httpd modul directory (e.g. libexec in the httpd 1.3 case).
Exactly, more precisely, if there is already an mod_jk.so in the .libs,
that's actually the final result of the build process, and you can put
it into every directory you like to install it. To really use it, you
have to give it's path name in the LoadModule httpd directive.
mod_jk.so.0 is trying to be renamed from the apache-1.3 directory when
it resides in the apache-1.3/.libs directory.
I did a file command on the mod_jk.so.0 file in .libs and it shows
pwd
/software/source/gnu/apache_tomcat/work/tomcat-connectors-1.2.25-src/native/apac
he-1.3/.libs
file mod_jk.so.0
mod_jk.so.0: executable (RISC System/6000) or object module not stripped
Looks good.
So am I thinking I can do the copy/rename myself to Apache Web Server
and rename it to mod_jk.so under some directory.
Yes.
That is if I don't need to do make install after the make.
Ah, OK: for httpd 1.3 the directory is libexec, not modules. It has
exactly the same purpose. As noted above, you can put the file in any
place you like, as long as the LoadModule contains the path name.
Convention is a sub directory libexec for httpd 1.3 and modules for 2.x
below the ServerRoot of httpd.
I see what your saying about pointing to it in the Apache httpd.conf file.
Just as long as it is found.
LoadModule jk_module modules/mod_jk.so
Careful: here you say look at the modules subdirectory of ServerRoot,
but the directory you listed in a previous post was named libexec, not
modules, and in fact libexec is the correct convention for httpd 1.3. If
you want to use "modules" instead, you must create the directory
underneath ServerRoot and put the module there. That might be a little
strange, bacause all your other modules will be in the libexec directory.
Thank you very much.
Rich

Rainer
