Hi! I have a 2.0.49 Apache provided to me with a vendor install. This is put in 7 boxes spanning development QA and production. However, these installs are missing mod_deflate. This is preventing me from enabling HTTP compression. I was looking for the quickest way of doing this: 1. Take the latest 2.0.54 source, make it on each of the machines, and install 2. Same as above, except that make on one machine, anc copy the installed version of one machine on all others (the install directory is exactly the same in all machines) 3. Compile 2.0.54, and just take the mod_deflate.so file and put it in the modules directory of the existing installation I am hesitant of recompiling 2.0.49 from source as I have read on the net that mod_deflate of that particular version had issues. >From my perspective, option 3 is the easiest to perform. I would like opinion of peple on this list as to if this is recommended, or any other options. Some other notes: (A quick google did not yield anything or any one's experiences attempting to do this. Also, I find it difficult to compile on all machines because only the dev achine has gcc tools installed. Organization's policy does not install dev tools on QA and production boxes. A quick look at ldd for httd shows for 2.0.54 shows me it depends on libgcc.so.1 for something. So i would have to install this on all boxes which would amount to install gcc on all boxes.
