Describe Apache2WebDavSuse here.
geändert zu:
! [=WebDAV=] Server install and setup with Apache 2.0.x on [=SuSE=]
In the following lines to be executed on the shell start with a "$" or a "#". "#" denotes an execution of the command as @@root@@, whereas "$" can be executed as a regular user. If not stated otherwise the actions are to be executed from within a designated directory from where the build process will be started.

'''''Note:''''' Be careful when building the server packages. Usually [=SuSE=] is terrible with keeping a good dependency handling. So it is really a pain in the ass to track down and resolve all dependencies for setups of packages ''other'' than the one originally shipped with the distro's version. Even though it would be sweet to use the occasion of building packages to upgrade to a current version ... :-/

!! Necessities: Apache web server and GDBM libraries (incl. dev-Packages), and the @@openssl@@ packages
* install (e. g. using [=YaST=]) the packages "@@gdbm@@", "@@gdbm-devel@@", "@@openssl@@", and "@@openssl-devel@@".

!! Get the sources and modify them according to our needs
* Find them at: http://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/ in directory @@''<distro version>''/suse/src/@@
* download SRC-RPM: @@apache2-2.0.xx-yy.src.rpm@@
* install it:
** @@# rpm -i apache2-2.0.xx-yy.src.rpm@@
* sources can be found in hierarchy underneath @@/usr/src/packages@@

!! Configure sources for building and packaging
* edit @@/usr/src/packages/SPECS/apache2.spec@@:
** insert a switch @@--with-gdbm@@ into the "configure" section (with all other switches)
* build RPM from sources as  binary package (prep, compile, install, package):
** @@# rpm -bb /usr/src/packages/SPECS/apache2.spec@@
** or @@# rpm -bb --target=i586 /usr/src/packages/SPECS/apache2.spec@@ for better optimization

!! Install packages
* Install created packages. They are located in @@/usr/src/packages/RPMS/''<arch>''@@, where @@''<arch>''@@ is usually like "@@i386@@" or "@@i586@@" depending on the built target architecture (see above at building packages):
** @@# rpm -Uhv libapr0-2.0.*.rpm apache2-2.0.*.rpm apache2-worker-2.0.*.rpm@@
* Additionally the packages @@apache2-doc@@, @@apache2-example-pages@@, or @@apache2-devel@@ package may be desired, or another version of the server itself (@@apache2-leader@@, @@apache2-prefork@@, @@apache2-*@@ packages) may be tried.

!! Adjust Apache config:
* file @@[=/etc/apache2/httpd.conf=]@@
* edit section @@[=<Directory /srv/www/htdocs>=]@@
** add lines at beginning of block:[[<<]]@@[=DAV on=]@@[[<<]]@@[=DAVDepthInfinity on=]@@[[<<]]
* add lock file statement after block:[[<<]]@@[=DAVLockDB /var/lock/DAVLock=]@@
* create lock DB and set permissions correctly:
** @@[=# touch /var/lock/DAVLock.dir=]@@
** @@[=# touch /var/lock/DAVLock.pag=]@@
** @@[=# chown wwwrun /var/lock/DAVLock.*=]@@
* the following two lines need to be added to file @@[=/etc/apache2/suse_loadmodule.conf=]@@:
 [=
LoadModule dav_module                    /usr/lib/apache2-worker/mod_dav.so
LoadModule dav_fs_module                  /usr/lib/apache2-worker/mod_dav_fs.so=]
* check for those lines in @@[=httpd.conf=]@@, remove if in there ...
* in file @@/etc/sysconfig/apache2@@ add "@@dav@@" and "@@dav_fs@@" to module list variable @@APACHE_MODULES@@
* check configuration with @@[=apache2ctl configtest=]@@
* @@[=# /etc/init.d/apache2 restart=]@@

!! Test:
* browse to http://server.name.domain/
* with Konqueror browse to webdav://server.name.domain/webdav/
* check to add a resource (copy, mkdir, etc.)

!! Performance tuning:
* In the first section of @@httpd.conf@@ add a line:[[<<]]@@[=SendBufferSize 31000=]@@
* restart server
** @@[=# /etc/init.d/apache2 restart=]@@
