Frank, httpd -l shows compiled-in modules but it's better to use DSO modules rather than compiled-in. To see what DSO modules were compiled, you can check what's in your modules directory. To get a great Apache 2.4.X with DSO, you can compile like this : 'configure --prefix=yourinstalldir --enable-mods-shared='most' As Oracle suggests you a "security" configuration, you can add their recommendations to the previous line Also, Apache 2.4 configuration script is bugged and the "enable" modules give a commented LoadModule in httpd.conf (see https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=55711 ) . So you can apply this patch or edit httpd.conf in order to remove the # of the modules you listed (ssl setenvif proxy ...) 2013/11/8 Frank Roche <fcroche@xxxxxxxxxxxx>: > Hi - I am a newbie to Apache and want to learn how to setup Apache as a > reverse proxy server for Oracle e-Business Suite. > > I am following an Oracle document which details how to do this but the > Apache version it uses is in the example is httpd-2.0.54.tar.gz > > I would like to use the latest version of Apache so I can take advantage of > latest bug fixes, enhancements and security fixes - the version I have > installed is httpd-2.4.6.tar.gz > > The Oracle document says that once Apache is installed I should be able to > do the following to confirm the modules in use :- > $ ./httpd -l > Compiled in modules: > core.c > mod_access.c > mod_auth.c > mod_log_config.c > mod_headers.c > mod_setenvif.c > mod_proxy.c > proxy_http.c > mod_ssl.c > prefork.c > http_core.c > mod_mime.c > mod_dir.c > mod_rewrite.c > mod_so.c > > They suggest this is achieved with the following configure command :- > ./configure -prefix /dmz \ > --enable-ssl \ > --enable-setenvif \ > --enable-proxy \ > --enable-proxy_http \ > --enable-headers \ > --enable-rewrite \ > --enable-so \ > --disable-charset-lite \ > --disable-include \ > --disable-env \ > --disable-status \ > --disable-autoindex \ > --disable-asis \ > --disable-cgi \ > --disable-negotiation \ > --disable-imap \ > --disable-actions \ > --disable-userdir \ > --disable-alias > > My Problem: > However when I configure and make my version and run the same httpd -l > command, I get a far smaller subet of modules. > I have tried to use the configure command oracle provided and also the > --enable-load-all-modules directive in the configure command as follows > ./configure --enable-load-all-modules > > Whichever way I do, the list command still gives me as follows :- > # ./httpd -l > Compiled in modules: > core.c > mod_so.c > http_core.c > event.c > > This list is significantly different ( smaller) than the list the Oracle > document suggests.
