Apache 2 was recently released



will it be part of 10.2, or the next OSX update?

    Probably not for sometime. mod_php still doesn't work under Apache httpd 2.x among other Apache modules. I doubt mod_hfs works either.



    As of this writing, powerpc-apple-darwin isn't a recognized host-type and it won't compile out of the box...you can trick the configure script with a host-type of powerpc-apple-macos or powerpc-apple-rhapsody, but the build process will exit with an error...



    You can manually 'fix' this by disabling pthreads where the build fails, but I don't know if that will break anything else...

    I built Apache 2 "out of the box" on OS X with no problems or tweaks of any kind, and it ran fine (with the standard complement of modules--no mod_perl, PHP, etc.) Are you sure you downloaded the release version? (2.0.35, IIRC)

    Yup, day of release, it choked when trying to build htpasswd.

    Well, I just tried it again and it worked, so I dunno what's up...



    [code]# wget -q <a href="http://www.apache.org/dist/httpd/httpd-2.0.35.tar.gz"; target="_blank">http://www.apache.org/dist/httpd/httpd-2.0.35.tar.gz</a>;

    # tar -xzf httpd-2.0.35.tar.gz

    # cd httpd-2.0.35/

    # ./configure --with-layout=Apache

    creating cache ./config.cache

    checking for chosen layout... Apache

    checking host system type... powerpc-apple-darwin5.3

    checking target system type... powerpc-apple-darwin5.3

    checking build system type... powerpc-apple-darwin5.3

    ...

    # make

    ...

    # ./httpd -l

    Compiled in modules:

    core.c

    mod_access.c

    mod_auth.c

    A jump from v1 -&gt; v2 is a pretty big? Are there any fundamental differences between Apache 1.3.x and 2.0.x?

    <a href="http://httpd.apache.org/docs-2.0/new_features_2_0.html"; target="_blank">Plenty</a>. It's not quite ready for prime time yet. I'm not installing it until mod_perl and mod_php will compile with it, and I'm sure that Apple won't include it in Software Update for a few months yet.
