Preparing mod_svn for compiling on windows

Well I didn’t manage it to compile mod_svn without the apache compiled source tree, but than it works fine and fast. Also Python 3 did not work. So I took 2.7
Assuming that OpenSSL 1.0.0a and zlib are compiled in that source tree as well.

C:\python27\python gen-make.py -t vcproj --vsnet-version=2008 --with-httpd=C:\build\httpd-2.2.x-sni-dev-ipv6
--with-openssl=C:\build\httpd-2.2.x-sni-dev-ipv6\srclib\openssl
 --with-zlib=C:\build\httpd-2.2.x-sni-dev-ipv6\srclib\zlib --with-apr=C:\build\httpd-2.2.x-sni-dev-ipv6\srclib\apr

Than just open subversion_vcnet.sln with Visual C++ Express Edition. Ignore all warnings about solution folders. Choose the __ALL__ project. Than change from debug to release. Start!

My sample config

LoadModule dav_module modules/mod_dav.so
LoadModule dav_fs_module modules/mod_dav_fs.so

LoadModule auth_digest_module modules/mod_auth_digest.so
LoadModule dav_svn_module modules/mod_dav_svn.so
LoadModule authz_svn_module modules/mod_authz_svn.so

<Location /svn/>
  DAV svn

  SVNListParentPath on
  SVNParentPath /Repositories/
  SVNIndexXSLT "/svnindex.xsl"
  SVNPathAuthz on
  AuthzSVNAccessFile "C:/Repositories/authz"

  AuthName "Subversion Repositories"
  AuthType Basic
  AuthUserFile "C:/Repositories/htpasswd"

  require valid-user
</Location>

Changed to event mpm

I made some testing on my dev machine and liked event mpm. So I installed it here. I noticed that  the event mpm closes the connections faster than worker mpm. Some download tests sadisfied me. Less memory usage and faster serving :-) For now I keeped the settings from worker mpm. I’ll look for tweaking in the next days.

Different to the docs event mpm works fine with SSL.

sudo apt-get install apache2-mpm-event libapache2-mod-fcgid

Also the serving PHP over fcgid is nice.  The implementation of PHP over fcgid in the older post.

Changed to worker mpm

Today I changed my server to from prefork mpm to worker mpm.

There are only some issues: in my phpmyadmin I had to set auth from http to cookie. And PHP_ADMIN_VALUE don’t work in the vhosts.

How to install it:

sudo apt-get install apache2-mpm-worker libapache2-mod-fcgid

In the single vhosts

Options Indexes ExecCGI
AddHandler fcgid-script .php
FCGIWrapper /usr/lib/cgi-bin/php5 .php

So that isn’t hard to do.

Well I would like to have a windows server with apache which is also threaded like worker mpm, but there is no cheap hoster for that yet. At home have that server is not an option cause of the small upload I have with my DSL, the coast of energie and where the hell should I put that server in my small apartment to that I still can sleep?
