mod_proxy Module - Not in XAMPP Win 1.4.5 (Lite)?

[Arris]

Hello everyone,

I've recently had the joyous task of looking into doing some work with Apache/XML/PHP/MySQL and providing a system which will run in conjunction with Lotus Notes Domino server and store data in Domino and MySQL. So I'm trying to follow instructions to redirect any URL requests that contain ".nsf" in them to my Domino test server on the same machine running on port 81 (whilst Apache runs on port 80).

I have the domino served default page from the homepage database (homepage.nsf) available from http://localhost:81/

I also have the Apache and MySQL servers working ok. And http://localhost brings up the XAMPP page.

The guide says to include the following in the httpd.conf for the Apache setup:

Code: Select all

LoadModule proxy_module modules/mod_proxy.so

AddModule mod_proxy.c


Code: Select all

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
     RewriteEngine on
     RewriteRule ^(.*).nsf(.*) http://localhost:81$1.nsf$2 [P]
<IfModule>


Code: Select all

<IfModule mod_proxy.c>
     ProxyRequests On

     <Directory proxy:*>
          Order deny, allow
          Deny from all
          Allow from 127.0.0.1
     </Directory>
</IfModule>


Then I get the error:
Cannot load C:/xampplite/apache/modules/mod_proxy.so into server: module could not be found.

And rightly enough this module is not listed in the modules directory.
Is it possible to download this from somewhere and add it in or do I have to go with a non lite installation?

Anyone got any links to where to get the module and/or any advice?

Thanks...

Well the simple solution to this was to install the XAMPP Basic installation and copy the two modules (mod_proxy.so and mod_proxy_http.so) to the modules directory for the XAMPPLITE installation. Just thought I would post this simple and fairly obvious way round these modules being missing from the lite installtion
