mod_proxy_html is not included in httpd 2.4

[chris2338]

If I download any other httpd version 2.4 (Windows or Linux), this module is included. Is it an issue?

What is the best way to include it to the official httpd image ?

I don't see it in the modules/ directory so it must not be part of the --enable-mods-shared=most set. I am unsure if we should change most to all or reallyall or if that would have adverse effects.

Hello I'd also be interested in having certain mods enabled (including the proxy_http ).
Here I see that the option in the dockerfile (for 2.4) is enable-mods-shared=reallyall so I don't understand this :

I don't see it in the modules/ directory so it must not be part of the --enable-mods-shared=most

The module (proxy_http.so) is in the modules folder when I run the httpd:2.4 image but it's not activated (httpd -M does not show proxy_http).
Since no a2enmod, and no mods_enabled/available directory, How can I manage activating/installing modules on this image ?

Thanks

You need to add an appropriate "LoadModule" directive in your configuration.

You're right :) thanks

Why is this issue closed? mod_proxy_html.so is still not included in the image.
Also, mod_proxy_html depends on mod_xml2enc being included.

[yosifkit]

We had thought that reallyall would correctly build it but I just tested building it and we are missing a dependency:

checking whether to enable mod_xml2enc... checking dependencies
checking for libxml2... checking for libxml2... no
checking whether to enable mod_xml2enc... no (disabled)
checking whether to enable mod_proxy_html... checking dependencies
checking for libxml2... (cached) no

I'm working on a pr to fix it.

Updated #34 to include other missing modules.
