Description Dustin C. Hatch 2004-08-15 20:11:37 UTC
mod_unique_id, a module for apache2 is enabled by default in the net-www/apache-2.0.50 ebuild.  This causes problems if not configured correctly and most users do not have the knowledge or the need to use and configure this module correctly.  It should not be enabled by default and should be removed from the ebuild

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.emerge =apache-2.0.50
2./etc/init.d/apache2 start


Actual Results:  
Apache service fails to start but does not print an error, simply  [ !! ] in on
stdout

Expected Results:  
Started as normal

To correct this one simply has to comment out or remove the LoadModule line
corisponding to mod_unique_id.  This should be done by default
Comment 1 Michael Stewart (vericgar) (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-01-25 04:44:15 UTC
mod_unique_id is no longer enabled by default in 2.0.52-r3 and 1.3.33-r1, which are currently hardmasked for testing.
