mod_jk configure can't find apxs - ?!?

843841Nov 28 2006 — edited Nov 29 2006
A developer has asked me to build an Apache 2 instance with mod_jk. This is on Solaris 8 with gcc 3.4.2. Apache2 builds, no problems.

First question: Why is mod_jk 2 deprecated while mod_jk 1 is actively being developed. Is it because the most recent versions are compatible with both Apache 1 and 2.

Second question: The configure script ignores with-apxs and with-apxs2:

./configure --with-apxs=/app/wsanders/SUNW/httpd-2.2.3/support/apxs
...
could not find /app/wsanders/SUNW/httpd-2.2.3/support/apxs
configure: error: You must specify a valid --with-apxs path

Permissions are fine:
$ ls -l /app/wsanders/SUNW/httpd-2.2.3/support/apxs
-rwxr-xr-x 1 wsanders wsanders 22597 Sep 26 13:54 /app/wsanders/SUNW/httpd-2.2.3/support/apxs

./configure --with-apxs2=/app/wsanders/SUNW/httpd-2.2.3/support/apxs
...
no apxs given
no apache given

Has anyone successfuly built this from source? Shoudl I be using mod_jk2?
