mod_deflate is not listed as experimental in Apache doc: http://httpd.apache.org/docs-2.0/mod/mod_deflate.html Should "deflate" be removed from the WITH_EXPERIMENTAL block in the Makefile? .if defined(WITH_EXPERIMENTAL) SHARED_MODULES+= case_filter case_filter_in deflate ext_filter charset_lite
What's the specific problem you're having? -- Cheers, Phone: 250-387-8437 Cy Schubert Fax: 250-387-5766 Team Leader, Sun/Alpha Team Email: Cy.Schubert@osg.gov.bc.ca Open Systems Group, CITS Ministry of Management Services Province of BC FreeBSD UNIX: cy@FreeBSD.org
I found that mod_deflate is not installed by default for apache2 port. It is not in my /usr/local/libexec/apache2. I think it's related to the line in the Makefile I mentioned in the pr. Lawrence Ho

No matter what the site says, configure script of _official_ apache2 distribution still doesn't install "deflate" module on "install all modules". Apache guys said, "Modified Apache can't be called Apache". :) -- Hye-Shik Chang <perky@fallin.lv> Yonsei University, Seoul ^D

But the fact that it is not Experimental anymore remains unchanged, would it be better to modify the Makefile to accurately reflect the status of this module? Also, I'm confused by other apache2 settings. "dav" and "ssl" also carry Extension status and get installed anyway when installing the port. Not a big deal as there is a nice WITHOUT_SSL option in the port's Makefile. But what about "dav"? I cannot find WITHOUT_DAV or something like that. This is different from the "default Apache install" (./configure && make install, I mean), anyone care to explain to me why is that? Why some modules are "beloved" and get installed by the port by default while others are left alone? Thanks. Lawrence Ho
