Apache Version in 8.4?

[juesch]

Hi -

I still have this problem with mod_jk.so . After the 8.4 update which seems to have gone ok, apache won't start because

Syntax error on line 209 of /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf: Syntax error on line 1 of /etc/httpd/conf.d/jk.conf: API module structure 'jk_module' in file /usr/lib/httpd/modules/mod_jk.so is garbled - expected signature 41503232 but saw 41503230 - perhaps this is not an Apache module DSO, or was compiled for a different Apache version?


It is possible that I updated apache through another respository - which could of course be source of the problem. The Plesk updater said my apache install was up-to-date.

httpd -v outputs:

Server version: Apache/2.2.8 (Unix)
Server built: Jan 22 2008 14:30:01

How can I find out if this is apache distributed with Plesk?

Thanks,
Juergen

I do not believe that apache is distributed with plesk, I think plesk uses your OS repository (rhn, centos yum, etc) for os related stuff.

Ok - if you're right then why would Plesk installing the tomcat mod cause this error though?

Just comment out mod_jk from httpd.conf if you dont want it

[juesch]

Brilliant! What if I do want it?

Then rebuild mod_jk and dependent apps.

[juesch]

Ok, but since mod_jk was installed by Plesk, I'm unsure how to do that and/or whether there are potential repercussions with future Plesk upgrades.

Thanks,

It wont be an issue, since the apache that you're using isn't distributed by Plesk. Stick with the vendor updates and you'll be fine.

Thanks for chiming in atomicturtle

I'm confused. Plesk is the vendor. It installed the 8.4 upgrade for me, including mod_jk. So it's not working. Which vendor in particular are you talking about?

Thanks,

Plesk is the vendor of the control panel, the other vendor is whoever makes the operating system (CentOS, Red Hat, etc). That is whose apache (mod_jk), mysql, bind, etc you're using. So your updates are coming from them.

thanks atomic, I'll look there.
