No.
Build the server with modules you want, either built-in or shared.
Some modules that are very common /often used are built-in -- there's a
chance that modules you want and didn't build as shared modules are
already compiled into apache.
As per Michael's instructions, if you build mod_so, you can build any
module in the future as-needed, and load it as a shared object.
The point being:
you should have no reason to rebuild apache. either the modules you want
are built in already , or you can just build the modules and not the
apache web server.
Aha, I'm glad it is possible, but this is what I don't know. How to build
the modules if Apache is already installed, if they are not built in, and
not installed as shared?
I have read the description pages for some Apache modules on Apache's site,
but I didn't found details about installing them if the server is already
installed.
So I think that if I will need to install some new modules, I might need to
re-build Apache entirely with all all the modules that I need, including the
old ones. This would not be very nice, but... is it true?
Or there is a way of just building and adding the new modules I need, just
like I do with mod_perl for example?
Thanks.
