On that note ... how do you actually get a module into Apache 2.0? I
tried to add mod_actions earlier today (./configure --enable-actions)
but it didn't seem to result in a server that understood Action. Not
sure I'm keen on that method of doing it, anyway.

Cheers,

Ben.

All I've tested is that the server doesn't crash and die when those
modules are compiled, in; I haven't tested the actual functionality of
those modules yet. I can't think of a reason it wouldn't work though.

I think it would be easy enough to make the configure script load a
list of configuration values. We just make each check for --enable or
--with blah also look at the loaded config value for that
configuration parameter.

I'm not sure what's missing - certainly configure said it was adding
actions. If it is expected to work, I'll look harder. Have you tried it?

Well, I still like the Configuration file (only for specifying
modules'n'stuff) - having a command line a zillion miles long instead
seems like a poor deal.

Cheers,

Hmm, weird. When you --enable-action, it should result in a new
modules.c being generated, and mod_action.c being compiled into the
server. Is there anything else that should be done that I missed? Are
one of these two steps not happening?

What do you suggest?

I've been using APACI when dealing with modules, because I don't think
Manoj has finished the module config stuff yet.
