Apache setup on Solaris 7 - httpd.conf

Environment : Solaris 7, Apache 1.3.20, Tamino 23.

Have sucessfully installed Tamino, or so it seems.
Can create a database in the Tamino Manager.
I have added entry for database in the httpd.conf file as per install notes.

When I stop and restart the Apache web server it complains that Host is not a valid word. The host is correct and so is the port.

Is the database info supposed to go in aparticular spot in the httpd.conf???

Looking at the httpd.conf after the install finished it appears Tamino did not modify it in any way?? What is Tamino supposed to add?

Any advice would be much appreciated.

As an aside installing as root seems to work much better than as sudo as per the install notes.

Cheers

This error suggests that the LoadModule directive has been omitted. You should see that in the libexec library, a module of the name ApacheModuleIno.so.

This should be loaded into apache as:

LoadModule ino_module libexec/ApacheModuleIno.so

Hope this fixes your problem.

Kind regards,

Simon

Simon,

The load module entry is there,
LoadModule ino_module libexec/ApacheModuleIno.so

the database info follows it further down. I have attached the httpd.conf file as I cannot see anything wrong with it.

I am sorry you are still having probs. I looked thro your httpd.conf and could see a couple of errors:

The AddModule directive for the tamino plugin is not required.

The LoadModule directive is not in the “correct” location.

Dependant libraries for the plugin are not loaded.

As a general comment, Apache v1 is very picky over the location and order of LoadModule and AddModule directives.Apache v2 greatly simplifies this area of Apache configuration.

I have attached an httpd.conf from a Solaris 7 Apache install I performed. Starting from the basic httpd.conf generated during the apache install, the only necessary mods for the plugin appear well towards the end of the file.

Hope this sorts things out for you.

Kind regards,

Simon

Simon,

Thankyou very much for the httpd.conf file that you sent me.

I have made a few minor changes due to the customer installing apache in slightly a different place.

I will send the customer the config file and see how they go.

Thanks again, I owe you a beer!!
Keep up the good work.

Daniel :slight_smile: :slight_smile:

Glad to help.

I just hope your next post says that the customer is now up and running.

Kind regards,

Simon

Hello all,

After using the Apache config file supplied by Simon and overcomming a problem of the Host file being overwritten, I am happy to anounce that Tamino is now working on Solaris!

Thankyou once again Simon for all your help.
