Hi!

I need add a new module to Apache server. At the moment, XAMPP doesn't have the module "bandwidth" (mod_bandwidth) and my question it's over this topic.

¿How I can add this module? ¿is to recompile XAMPP necessary?
¿What i can do?

Thanks you very much in advance!

How I can add this module?

I guess there is a readme with installation instructions with this module.

is to recompile XAMPP necessary?

No. But you need the XAMPP devel package.

Firts, thanks al lot for your reply!

And how i can upgrade XAMPP with a new modules using devel package?

Thanks!

That's what you can read in the readme from 3rd party modules like mod_bandwidth (XAMPP is just an Apache like any other).

using devel package?

You can't "use" the devel package. But you must have/installed it.

How i can install the devel package?

How i can install the devel package?

On the XAMPP for Linux Homepage you can read the install instuctin for the Devel package.

Okay, Now are installing. Thanks!

And another question, don't need recompile apache for add the module?

In positive case, only need copy the module file at /lampp/modules/ and modify the httpd.conf and perform correctly?

Thanks a lot and forgiveness for my heaviness

don't need recompile apache for add the module?

No.

only need copy the module file

No, you must compile the module (read the modul install instruction). (IMHO the installer is copying the module itself to the right location)

But, the module is only one file (mod_bandwidth.so).

And the installation guide of the module shows that I have to compile and install apache. I understand that there is everything to compile and install everything.

If it is not, that one method can be.

But, the module is only one file (mod_bandwidth.so).

Then you have a precompiled module for some other webserver. The original mod_bandwidth is just a c source file.

(BTW: From what I can read, mod_bandwidth is for Apache 1.3 ...)

You are true! I compile the C code, but not runs.

By the time I leave aside this module.
By any chance know other similar modules for Apache 2.2.9?

Thank you very much!
