httpd failes to start after upgrading to 2.2.3

[zurih]

Hi

I upgraded apache from 2.0.59 to 2.2.3 and it failes to start after that.

I recieve the error:
Starting httpd: httpd: Syntax error on line 67 of /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf: Cannot load /usr/lib/apache/mod_frontpage.so into sere
[FAILED]

when I comment
LoadModule frontpage_module /usr/lib/apache/mod_frontpage.so

the service starts fine. seems to be a problem with mod_frontpage.

When I do ./build mod_frontpage_ap2, I recieve lots of errors like:

/usr/local/frontpage/version5.0/apache2/mod_fpcgid.c:266: error: `AP_SIG_GRACEFUL' undeclared (first use in this function)
/usr/local/frontpage/version5.0/apache2/mod_fpcgid.c:266: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once

Can anyone point out the problem?

Thanks

You can have mod_frontpage with Apache 2.2 now, just use the following patch: http://www.swart.org.za/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2007/12/mod_frontpage-patches.tgz

Do you know where these patches come from?

Are they official?

Are they safe?

Yes, I do. They are not official, but safe Just a few patch files for Apache source and that's it.
