Can't get mod_proxy to work

[druffus]

Hello all,

I'm a servermatrix customer and I am trying to install the mod_proxy on my Linux server. Sorry to servermatrix for also submitting a trouble ticket, but i just can't get this.

I first tried rpm-ing apache-mod_proxy-1.3.29-1.i386 and got failure:

warning: httpd-devel-2.0.48-18.i386.rpm: V3 DSA signature: NOKEY, key ID 30c9ecf8
error: Failed dependencies:
apr-devel is needed by httpd-devel-2.0.48-18
apr-util-devel is needed by httpd-devel-2.0.48-18
httpd = 2.0.48 is needed by httpd-devel-2.0.48-18
Suggested resolutions:
httpd-devel-2.0.46-25.ent.i386.rpm

I wasn't able to find this rpm anywhere. Even so, I am not keen on rpm-ing too much cause i have only basic knowlege of working with the apache and server.

I also tried another method:

/home/cpapachebuild/buildapache/apache_1.3.29/config.status
cd /home/cpapachebuild/buildapache/apache_1.3.29/src/modules/proxy make Makefile.tmpl libproxy.so

But I get a make error:

make: Nothing to be done for `Makefile.tmpl'.
make: *** No rule to make target `libproxy.so'. Stop.


I am not sure what to do, I would really appreciate some help.

Thanks alot.

You can use this rpm:

http-devel.rpm (http://www.itp.tu-graz.ac.at/Comp/RPM/rh-9/httpd-devel-2.0.40-21.i386.html)

Make sure you have the dependencies all installed as well.


And this is a nice config guide:

mod_proxy apache config (http://www.apachefreaks.com/apache2/mod/mod_proxy.html)

Do we know what distro/version you are using? RHEL3?

Check your installation cd's for httpd-devel-2.0.46-25.ent.i386.rpm as the G4L search I did for that rpm package shows it should be on one of the cd's. While you are at it, check the cd's for all those packages including mod_proxy.

[druffus]

Yes I have RHEL3.

I wasn't able to find that rpm on the internet and have no installation discs as I am using a dedicated server with a hosting provider.

[mdwatts]

Did your hosting provider originally setup RHEL3 for you? Could you ask them about installing additional packages?

[druffus]

I did, they offered me the low low price of $75 an hour. Although, it would only be an hour, I think i'd rather do it myself.

I am hoping i just need that rpm, but i can't find it and who knows if thats all i need.

[druffus]

I just realized some one liked the rpm i needed above, thanks, but...

I got this:



root@tech [/rpmlib]# rpm -Uvh httpd-devel-2.0.40-21.i386.rpm
error: Failed dependencies:
httpd = 2.0.40 is needed by httpd-devel-2.0.40-21




Then i got that rpm



root@tech [/rpmlib]# rpm -Uvh httpd-2.0.40-21.i386.rpm
error: Failed dependencies:
httpd-mmn = 20020903 is needed by (installed) mod_ssl-2.0.46-26.ent
httpd-mmn = 20020903 is needed by (installed) php-4.3.2-8.ent
httpd-mmn = 20020903 is needed by (installed) mod_authz_ldap-0.22-3

httpd = 2.0.46-26.ent is needed by (installed) mod_ssl-2.0.46-26.ent



I am not sure from this if i need another one or what?

Thank you for any help, it is greatly appreciated!
