Adding custom modules to apache for customapache

If you want to add any extra modules to apache, they'll need to be compiled in. Any module that needs to be compiled in will have a --with-module type flag which will need to be used. To add this flag, run the following:

cd /usr/local/directadmin/customapache 
vi configure.apache_ssl

#add your --with-module line to the end of the file, where --with-module is to be replaced with required entry for the module you're installing.  See your modules documentation.
# and make sure the  character exists at the end of all lines except the last one.

./build clean 
./build apache_mod_ssl


Then restart apache:
RedHat:

/sbin/service httpd restart


FreeBSD:

/usr/local/etc/rc.d/httpd restart



If you run into problems, you may also need to recompile php as well:

./build php

Then restart apache again.
