gentoo and apache 2.2
Mon, Dec 4, 2006I’ve finally gotten motivated enough to switch over to apache 2.2. Unfortunately the ebuild for apache 2.2 is currently masked due to problems with some modules (mod_auth_mysql and mod_fastcgi). I don’t use mod_auth_mysql, so that posed me no problem, but I have trac setup with fastcgi. I did a little research regarding mod_fastcgi’s problems, which some people have already resolved on their own. Fastcgi is currently unmaintained so those patches or any sort of real fix (the problem stems from the removal of deprecated apis) aren’t being added to the main tree. I used a patch and created my own ebuild, both of which I’ve added to the bugzilla ticket for the problem.
After installing, I had to revise my vhost setup due to some change in the vhost handling. Apparently *.hasno.info will cause issues if you have trac.hasno.info and wiki.hasno.info defined as ServerAliases. I’ve switch over to using mod_rewrite for all of my *.hasno.info web routing.
