#26396: mod_fcgid update ------------------------+--------------------------------------------------- Reporter: ro@… | Owner: macports-tickets@… Type: update | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 1.9.1 Keywords: | Port: mod_fcgid ------------------------+--------------------------------------------------- The version of mod_fcgid (2.2) is pretty old by now. Which is too bad, because 2.3.5 fixes some OS X bugs. (I only looked at it because my apache kept giving HTTP 500 errors, with "Resource temporarily unavailable: mod_fcgid: write data to fastcgi server error".) Maybe that went unnoticed because the repository changed... (It's not sourceforge anymore.) It also has a somewhat new build process; I guess it's standard Apache's now. I'm a new MacOS & MacPorts user, so I just trial-and-errored my way though things and came halfway creating an updated Portfile. I got through the fetch / checksum / extract / patch parts, but got tired at 'configure'. (I don't know how to run a nonstandard command.) So after the 'patch' phase, I just ran the following by hand (from the build dir):[[BR]] APXS=/opt/local/apache2/bin/apxs ./configure.apxs[[BR]] make[[BR]] rm /opt/local/apache2/modules/mod_fcgid.so[[BR]] cp modules/fcgid/.libs/mod_fcgid.so /opt/local/apache2/modules/mod_fcgid.so ...and after a restart, my apache stopped crashing. So I'm happy for now :) Maybe someone wants to use my updates to build a working Portfile? I'll try to attach:[[BR]] - half-functional Portfile[[BR]] - diff to the existing Portfile (so you can see what I did so far)[[BR]] - an updated patch-fcgid_conf.c (copy it over the existing one) -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macports.org/ticket/26396> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
