Building mod_fastcgi on RHEL5
Apparently, I'm one of the only people who has ever built mod_fastcgi on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5. At least after much Googling and gnashing of teeth, here's how it's done.
yum install httpd-devel wget http://www.fastcgi.com/dist/mod_fastcgi-current.tar.gz tar xzf mod_fastcgi-current.tar.gz cd mod_fastcgi- cp Makefile.AP2 Makefile
The next step will depend on your architecture:
ia-32
make top_dir=/usr/lib/httpd make top_dir=/usr/lib/httpd install
ia-64
make top_dir=/usr/lib64/httpd make top_dir=/usr/lib64/httpd install
You'll find the module is now installed in /etc/httpd/modules. You can now add the configuration directive to load the module. I suggest adding the following to /etc/httpd/conf.d/fastcgi.conf to follow RHEL convention:
LoadModule fastcgi_module modules/mod_fastcgi.soI may get around to creating an RPM for this, but that will be time permitting.
