How to add and enable rewrite module in manually installed apache httpd web server?
Sophia Terry
I installed apache httpd server by compiling source on Kubuntu 14.10.
I ran
wget
tar -xzf httpd-2.2.29.tar.gz
cd httpd-2.2.29
./configure --enable-shared=max
make
sudo make install I followed these steps
I am able to run and stop the serversudo /usr/local/apache2/bin/apachectl -k start to start serversudo /usr/local/apache2/bin/apachectl -k stop to stop server
I am able to see loaded modules also
/usr/local/apache2/bin/httpd -MIn the list of loaded modules there is no mod_rewrite so I want to add and enable it. How can I enable that module in a manually installed httpd server?
