Subject: Re: [users@httpd] Installed Modules Query

Frank, httpd -l shows compiled-in modules but it's better to use DSO
modules rather than compiled-in.

To see what DSO modules were compiled, you can check what's in your
modules directory.

To get a great Apache 2.4.X with DSO, you can compile like this :
'configure --prefix=yourinstalldir --enable-mods-shared='most'

As Oracle suggests you a "security" configuration, you can add their
recommendations to the previous line

Also, Apache 2.4 configuration script is bugged and the "enable"
modules give a commented LoadModule in httpd.conf (see
https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=55711 ) . So you
can apply this patch or edit httpd.conf in order to remove the # of
the  modules you listed  (ssl setenvif proxy ...)
