Installation with apache 2.4


Posted on Dec 14, 2013 by Grumpy Wombat

Hey,

I'm trying to install mod_wgsi 3.4 on a ubuntu 12.04 machine with apache 2.4.2. According to the docs, apache 2.4 should be supported. However, when running ./configure, it give me following output:

root@ubuntu:~/mod_wsgi-3.4# ./configure checking for apxs2... no checking for apxs... no checking Apache version... ./configure: line 1704: apxs: command not found ./configure: line 1704: apxs: command not found ./configure: line 1705: apxs: command not found ./configure: line 1708: /: Is a directory

checking for python... /usr/bin/python ./configure: line 1877: apxs: command not found configure: creating ./config.status config.status: error: cannot find input file: Makefile.in

I have installed apache 2.4.2 by running following commands: apt-add-repository ppa:ptn107/apache apt-get update apt-get install apache2

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Kind regards,

Jan

You need to install the apache2-dev package. If you don't, there will be no apxs or Apache header files. This is noted in the installation instructions on the web and in the README in the package.

Hey Graham,

I could not install apache2-dev because of a dependency on specific debhelper package. I have switched to ubuntu 13.10, and that is working for me.

Thank you for your reply.
