is apache 2.4 actually getting compiled with mod_deflate?

[dmacleo]

I cannot find mod_deflate.so anywheres, the httpd-deflate.conf does not actually point to the so file so that didn't help.
attached is screenshot of all modules.

the cnfigure file has it listed but I cannot find the so file

fwiw I ran this cmd against the mod_deflate.c

/usr/sbin/apxs -c -i mod_deflate.c

then moved the so file to the modules directory.
I needed to do this to point mod_pagespeed to the deflate module as IT loads mod_deflate.
the

Include conf/extra/httpd-deflate.conf

line in httpd.conf gets commented out and the pagespeed_conf handles it.

It is not a DSO by default, so the so file should not exist there. It does not mean you are not running mod_deflate.

ok that explains it, was simple to do it but it caught my eye.
