Bug 110799 – mod_ruby config file for apache2 uses wrong path for mod_ruby.so

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED INVALID

[Description Leif Linse 2005-10-29 09:25:55 UTC]

The 20_mod_ruby.conf supplyed by mod_ruby ebuild contains an error. The row
"LoadModule ruby_module    extramodules/mod_ruby.so" 
should be 
"LoadModule ruby_module    modules/mod_ruby.so" 
or apache wont be able to load the .so file. 

Reproducible: Didn't try
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge apache
2. emerge mod_php
3. vi /etc/apache2/httpd.conf
Add the line
"Include /etc/apache2/conf/modules.d/*.conf" 
bellow the existing row 
"Include /etc/apache2/modules.d/*.conf" 
(Fixes another bug in the same ebuild)

4. /etc/init.d/apache2 start
Actual Results:  
Apache complains about that it cant find the mod_ruby.so file.

Expected Results:  
Apache should start without complaining, and the ruby mod should work.

How I have solved the problem manualy.

1. emerge apache
2. emerge mod_ruby
3. vi /etc/apache2/httpd.conf
Add the line
"Include /etc/apache2/conf/modules.d/*.conf" 
bellow the existing row 
"Include /etc/apache2/modules.d/*.conf" 
(Fixes another bug in the same ebuild)

4. vi /etc/conf.d/apache2 
Add "-D RUBY" to APACHE2_OPTS=... (row 24)
/etc/init.d/apache2 start

You need to use >=1.2.4-r1
