mod_auth_dbm.so

[nopri]

hello all,

hello all, i compile my apache like this :

./configure --prefix=/usr/uptpl/apache --enable-module=most --enable-shared=max,

installation succeded. Then i issued bin/apachectl configtest and it said cannot load mod_auth_dbm error, undefined symbol dbm_fecth,

i'm using 1.3.20

i found this problem only in my linux system, on redhat, it just run smoothly...

Because your system didn't have the required libraries installed to enable auth_dbm. It's not uncommon to specify --disable-module=auth_dbm during initial intall.

hello,

thanks,

but it seems like making new problem when this module doing something important. If my system lacks it, will it still running without problems?

What is the purpose of mod_auth_dbm ?

thanks.

Authenticate via dbm.

You can uncomment it in httpd.conf so Apache doesn't try to load it. If it's not too late, you should recompile Apache and disable it explicitly and enable just --enable-module=auth_db if you really need it.
