[users@httpd] How to Release Apache?

Hi all.

Until now, I just downloaded source code, modified some of
them(mostly, mod_http_proxy.c) and finished adding

some functionality. In the meantime, I tested it by getting my web
browser to have local host IP as its proxy server.

Now it is time to release the apache to other testers who may use
Windows mostly. In the end, through this,

I can be sure the correctness of the system.


For this, I may need to prepare the following two things.

(1) Creates a kind of automatic install program which install my http
pache server to their OS

(2) Set up all possible web browsers to get local IP as its proxy
server automatically

I think (1) is the main functionality that I have to make. In fact,
regarding (2), I can make a guideline sheet asking for

setting up proxy.

Does anybody have any suggestion for this?

By subversion I mean...

the httpd project has a subversion repository that holds the source code.
somewhere in that repository is the files that are used to build the
official msi's that are released by the ASF.

I looked up the URL for you so if you have the subversion cli tools
installed you can check the source out like this:
 svn co http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/httpd/httpd/win32-msi/trunk/

You an use them as a base, I don't have much experience with installers.
Personally I use WinRAR SFX + batch scripting ;-) but thats not very
professional.

Hi. Jorge

Thank you for your advice.

However, sorry but I do not think I understood completely what you said.

You have said, "You can checkout the windows install source files from
subversion and
start working from there."

When you say, "subversion", does it mean S/W for version controlling?
Or does it mean a bunch of Win32 version apache source codes? How can
I deal with install files with it?

Ultimately what I want to do is to make an installer like msi,
including original apache source files
, modified source files and my own CGI file.

Could Jorge or anybody else explain how to create an installer more
explicitly for the beginner like me?

Thanks

You can checkout the windows install source files from subversion and
start working from there.

Other than that, I don't have any advice, but make sure to clearly
state this isn't released by the ASF but by a 3rd party
It's probably a good idea to read "Licensing of Distributions "
section of http://apache.org/licenses/ as wel.
