mod_auth_mysql and Apache 1.3.14

Anon

It seems that mod_auth_mysql won't install with Apache 1.3.14 or maybe it is PHP 4 (latest). I managed to get installed as DSO but all the defaults are different and some options are missing (like MySQL crypted passwords).

I really like the ease of authentication with this module. Seems there is no further development. Any suggestions for a simliar scheme or a fix?

Anyone have mod_auth_mysql working with the latest PHP and Apache? Or a good alternative?

Anon

I have been able to get mod_auth_mysql to work fine with PHP4 using Apache 1.3.12, but it does not compile correctly with Apache 1.3.17.

The error I get is
===> src/modules/auth_mysql
make[4]: *** No rule to make target ../../include/alloc.h', needed bymod_auth_mysql.o'. Stop.

So this is probably not the right list for this message, but if anyone can help....

Same problem. Please let me know if anyone has a solution.

I found the solution to this one in several places on the web. The best seems to be http://ep33.tp4.ruhr-uni-bochum.de/mlists/MySQL/Oct.2000/1206.html

Hi Allen
I'm sorry to both you, I am trying to follow your advice, but I can' t follow the link you suggested would answer my questions.

No chance of a pointer. i have the same problems as the others:
no rule to make targe ../../include/alloc.h needed by mod_auth_mysql.o

Hmmm, seems like the site I got my tip off of has gone away, so here is the fix.

// For apache 1.3.14 and higer, an adjustment must be made to
// Line 69 of apMakefile.tmpl
// it should now read:
// $(INCDIR)/ap_alloc.h $(INCDIR)/buff.h \
// instead of:
// $(INCDIR)/alloc.h $(INCDIR)/buff.h \
//
// This change must be made before you
// configure mod_auth_mysql
