Minimum Requirements for Apache 1.3

This section describes the minimum requirements to successfully compile Apache 1.3 web server to run the load balancer plug-in. The Apache source must be compiled and built to run with SSL.

Requirements for UNIX and Linux platforms:

• openssl-0.9.7d (source)

• mod_ssl-2.8.16-1.3.29 (source)

• apache_1.3.29 (sources)

• gcc-3.3-sol9-sparc-local packages (for Solaris 9 SPARC/x86).

• flex-2.5.4a-sol9-sparc-local packages (for Solaris 9 SPARC)

• flex-2.5.4a-sol9-intel-local packages (for Solaris 9 x86)

In addition, before compiling Apache:

• On Linux, install the Sun Java System Application Server on the same machine.

• On Solaris 8, ensure that gcc and make are in the PATH.

• On Solaris 9, ensure that gcc version 3.3 and make are in the PATH, and flex is installed.

• If you are using gcc on Red Hat Enterprise Linux Advanced Server 2.1, the version must be later than gcc 3.0.

• To use another C compiler, set the path of the C compiler and make utility in the PATH environment variable. For example:

  export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:install-dir/lib
