Subject description: (module gets installed in the wrong directory) 		Reply with quote
Since mod_jk binaries are no longer available for Apache 1.3.x on Mac OS X, I have to build it myself now, but every time I build and install mod_jk, everything goes smoothly until the final 'sudo make install,' and then it finishes with:
Quote:
Libraries have been installed in: /usr/libexec

Which is nice, but they're supposed to be installed in /usr/libexec/httpd in Mac OS X.

I'm using this when I call configure:
Code:
% ./configure --with-apxs=/usr/sbin/apxs

and /usr/sbin/apxs says:
Code:
my $CFG_LIBEXECDIR = q(/usr/libexec/httpd);

but the resulting Makefile says:
Code:
libexecdir=${APACHE_DIR}/libexec

So it appears to be ignoring the definition from apxs. It also appears that the definition of libexecdir is variable only up until libexec. It looks like you can't tell it to use a subdirectory.

It's easy enough to just move the installed files into the httpd directory, with sudo mv /usr/libexec/mod_jk.* usr/libexec/httpd, but it's a little annoying to have to remember to do this every time I upgrade mod_jk.

Has anybody else run into this with this or other modules on any other platforms? Is it a bug that should be reported to either Apple or Apache? Does anybody have a better solution than editing the Makefile before I run make or moving the files after make install?
