Installing Railo on CentOS with Apache

I will add more to this later but wanted to write down these core steps before I forgot them. Hopefully this will save you some, since the other documentation I have found is mainly for installing Railo on Ubuntu Server. Here are the steps on how I was able to generate the mod_caucho.so on CentOS for Apache. 1. I installed the package "httpd-devel" via Yum 2. In the Railo Directory I ran the following Commands:


./configure --with-apache=/usr/include/httpd

make

make install

3. That automatically put the mod_caucho.so into the /etc/httpd/modules directory 4. I then added this to the /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf file


LoadModule caucho_module modules/mod_caucho.so

I also added this right below the LoadModule


ResinConfigServer localhost 6800
CauchoConfigCacheDirectory /tmp
CauchoStatus yes

5. I then restarted apache. 6. In resin.conf I added this line:


 
       
       www.mydomain.com

7. When you save Railo will restart automatically. To get Railo to not restart automatically change this line:


2s

to
-1

You still have to follow the instructions to finish up the configuration. The PDF I am following is: Railo Apache Install Guide
