Subject: [cobalt-developers] Recompiling Apache...  Raq3

I followed some bad advice from the users list and I fear I may have
destroyed my Raq.  Basically I what I did was:

./configure --enable-module=so --prefix=/etc/httpd/
make
make install

When I noticed all the additional directories it created I realized how much
the cobalt web directory tree differed from the default apache install.

Would anyone care to speculate how screwed I am?  I haven't restarted the
server yet so the box is still up but I strongly suspect it will not
restart.  I'm trying to determine the best way to restore a good apache
configuration while the server is still up.

It would be useful to know which files define the Cobalt apache setup so I
could see if they've been overwritten.  I would also be interested if
somebody has done a full apache install from source on a Raq 3 and gotten it
to work.

If anyone has input that might be relevant I would appreciate the help.

Thanks,

greg trangmoe

Subject: Re: SV: [cobalt-developers] DNS / email problem

If the regular mail works fine then you should check your Formail script
setup. It may be set by default to not forward mail from the server it is
installed on. If this is the case, any mail submissions thru that form will
never leave that server. You could pull your hair out for days trying to
figure it out. This is an easy fix, just edit the Formail script parameter
that allows forwarding off of that server.

Subject: Re: SV: [cobalt-developers] DNS / email problem

If the regular mail works fine then you should check your Formail script
setup. It may be set by default to not forward mail from the server it is
installed on. If this is the case, any mail submissions thru that form will
never leave that server. You could pull your hair out for days trying to
figure it out. This is an easy fix, just edit the Formail script parameter
that allows forwarding off of that server.
