Hi, my name is Tom Lazar and I'm a Plone and Zope developer based in Berlin, Germany and this is my personal and professional (no big difference, really...) website.
 

ProxyPass, Apache2 and FreeBSD

Filed Under:

From the Note-to-myself-Department

When installing Apache2 from the ports collection in order to make ProxyPass directives work (i.e. in order to 'prettify' your URLs in conjunction with Zopes VirtualHostMonster) you must rebuild apache and explicitely tell it to include (at least) the following modules:

make clean; make WITH_MODULES="proxy proxy_html proxy_connect ssl"; make deinstall; make reinstall;

which will then be needed to be imported in httpd.conf thus:

LoadModule proxy_module libexec/apache2/mod_proxy.so
LoadModule proxy_connect_module
libexec/apache2/mod_proxy_connect.so
LoadModule proxy_ftp_module libexec/apache2/mod_proxy_ftp.so
LoadModule proxy_http_module libexec/apache2/mod_proxy_http.so
LoadModule ssl_module libexec/apache2/mod_ssl.so
