(The mod_wl.so is a shared object for standard Apache (non EAPI).
weblogic/lib/linux/i686/mod_wl_ssl.so
(The file mod_wl_ssl.so is used for Apache + SSL/EAPI installations (Stronghold, modssl etc.).
weblogic/lib/linux/i686/mod_wl_ssl_raven.so
(For Apache+FastStart installations the mod_wl_ssl_raven.so is used. The mod_wl_ssl_raven.so file was required because FastStart applies frontpage patches which makes it incompatible with mod_wl_ssl.so.)

Known Issues
WebLogic Server does support the performance pack on RHAT Linux 6.1 for WebLogic Server 5.1 in conjunction with JDK 1.1.8 (Sun's 1.2.2 only supports green threads and is not supported with the performance pack).
Also, the Red Hat Linux setuid functionality doesn't work with the JDK 1.3.1_02 because of the current Linux thread model. If you use ports lower than 1024, you will not be able to use this function to switch from a root to a non-privileged user id.
