For whom like me who like compile their httpd server, there's always a moment when we said we had added a module during the compilation.
There's an example of an independant module compilation : the rewriting module :
First, uncompress the httpd server archive and go to modules sources folder, compile the wanted module sources, link the module and put it in the httpd directory :
Then modify the httpd.conf file to load the module :
Of course, adding shared modules is less optimale than to put them in the httpd core during the first compilation but it's a way to fix situations and to load only modules we need.
Note that's possible to fully compile again a httpd server while there's already a running instance on the same server.
A simple reboot is needed to have the new httpd core...
