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?

      3 months later

      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.

          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
