Hello.

I'm trying to build latest httpd.

        git checkout HEAD
Download mod_ftp:
        svn co http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/httpd/mod_ftp/trunk srclib/mod_ftp && cp -a srclib/mod_ftp/* ./

Adjust for latest httpd version changes:
        sed -i 's/remote_ip/client_ip/' modules/ftp/ftp_commands.c
        sed -i 's/remote_ip/client_ip/' modules/ftp/ftp_data_connection.c && sed -i 's/remote_ip/client_ip/' modules/ftp/ftp_data_connection.c
Configure:
./configure --enable-ftp
Make and the error:
ftp_data_connection.c: In function Б─≤ftp_open_dataconnБ─≥:
ftp_data_connection.c:285: error: dereferencing pointer to incomplete type

Please update mod_ftp to handle latest httpd version.

There's an existing bug that covers the incompatibility between mod_ftp and httpd 2.4.x.

https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=52855

I'm not aware of any developers working on mod_ftp recently.  It might be solved sooner if you can submit a patch.
