tar xf apache_1.3.22.tar
tar xf mod_ssl-2.8.5-1.3.22.tar
tar xf modperl_20011121051928.tar
tar xf openssl-0.9.6b.tar

cd apache_1.3.22
./configure --prefix=/usr/local/apache

cd ../openssl-0.9.6b # (Please note 64bit support did not work when trying
to compile as a static module in Apache, so compile this in 32bit)
./config
make
make install

cd ../mod_ssl-2.8.5-1.3.22
./configure --with-apache=../apache_1.3.22 --with-ssl=../openssl-0.9.6b

cd ../php-4.0.6
./configure --with-mysql=/usr/local/mysql --with-apache=../apache_1.3.22 --e

make install

cd ../modperl
perl Makefile.PL USE_APACI=1 EVERYTHING=1 SSL_BASE=/usr/local/ssl
APACI_ARGS=--enable-module=rewrite,--enable-module=ssl,--activate-module=src
/modules/php4/libphp4.a
make
make install

# On one server this worked the other I received an error when trying to
compile the modphp.  If you get this error do the following
* cd ../php-4.0.6
* make install

# then proceed back to modperl
cd ../modperl
make
make install

cd ../apache_1.3.22
make
make install

Verify all modules compiled in correctly by issuing the following command:
/usr/local/apache/bin/httpd -l

The results should look something like this:

/usr/local/apache/bin/httpd -l

Compiled-in modules:
  http_core.c
  mod_env.c
  mod_log_config.c
  mod_mime.c
  mod_negotiation.c
  mod_status.c
  mod_include.c
  mod_autoindex.c
  mod_dir.c
  mod_cgi.c
  mod_asis.c
  mod_imap.c
  mod_actions.c
  mod_userdir.c
  mod_alias.c
  mod_rewrite.c
  mod_access.c
  mod_auth.c
  mod_setenvif.c
  mod_ssl.c
  mod_perl.c
  mod_php4.c
suexec: disabled; invalid wrapper /usr/local/apache/bin/suexec

You can see the last three modules are ssl, perl, and php!  Congradulations,
you now have SSL, Perl, and PHP modules compiled in Apache ready for a full

This neat script (or script + baggage) builds apache and most bolt on bits in
a simple to use menu.  Just tag the bits you want and off it goes.

When some package needs extra info it allows you to provide it usually by
editing a good guess config file.

There may be some fun to be had on Sun boxes.  It does work but you may need
to fiddle.  I think it is GD that has problems.  Else use gnu ld and then you
have fun with apache itself.
