Can I add mod_rewrite to Apache with apxs? If so, how or where can I download mod_rewrite? Thanks.

Hi

Apache Module mod_rewrite (http://httpd.apache.org/docs-2.0/mod/mod_rewrite.html).

Rewrite is a part of Apache source, so you DON'T need to download anything. Try re-configuring Apache source with --enable-rewrite.

Thanks for the reply. Ok, so if I recompile Apache with mod_rewrite, then make it, do I have to do a make install it? If not, what do I do?

Sorry about the N00BIE question.

Hi

do I have to do a make install it?...AFAIK, yes.

Please look on this (http://www.engelschall.com/sw/) webpage for more details. The page is on the website of mod_rewrite's author (Engelschall). Also read the Apache docs.
