Pardon the newbie question - I haven't worked with manually compiling Apache modules (or anything) before. I am trying to get the mod_concat module going. It seems simple enough - just requires downloading the mod_concat.c file and then running:

axps -c mod_concat.c

This is new to me. Does it matter which directory I put mod_concat.c before running this command? I ran it from my home directory, and I see some new files - mod_concat.la, mod_concat.lo, mod_concat.o, and mod_concat.slo - along with a new subfolder called .libs/ that contains mod_concat.so along with some other files.

I'm not sure where to go from here, I have a feeling these files were created in the wrong place. Don't I need mod_concat.so to be in my apache modules directory with the rest?

Thanks for the help, Brian

Is it just the mod_concat.so that needs to be copied into my Apache modules directory? What about those other files and the .libs/ folder that was created? Thanks. – Brian May 8 '10 at 22:01
They're just intermediate files that are used for building the shared object. .libs/ is just a convenient place to stuff the shared object. Convenient for the build routine, that is. – Ignacio Vazquez-Abrams May 8 '10 at 22:03
Ah. Thanks for your help. – Brian May 8 '10 at 22:08
