Mod_layout Installtion

Following are the step to install Mod_layout for apache.

Quote:

wget http://fresh.t-systems-sfr.com/unix/src/...3.2.tar.gz
tar -zxvf mod_layout-3.2.tar.gz
cd mod_layout-3.2
mv Makefile.STATIC Makefile

It will ask if you want to overwite, press y and enter

pico -w Makefile
The Makefile (and not Makefile.STATIC) would have to be edited to have path to apxs defined everywhere. for example, if it's /usr/local/apache/bin, then the top portion of makefile wouild look like this:

Quote:

APXS=/usr/local/apache/bin/apxs
APACHECTL=/usr/local/apache/bin/apachectl
CC=`/usr/local/apache/bin/apxs -q CC`
INC=-I`/usr/local/apache/bin/apxs -q INCLUDEDIR` `$(APXS) -q CFLAGS` #-DLAYOUT_FILEOWNER_NAME
LD_SHLIB=`apxs -q LDFLAGS_SHLIB`
VERSION = 3.2
DISTNAME = mod_layout
DISTVNAME = $(DISTNAME)-$(VERSION)

Then just type

Quote:

make
make install

Restart httpd

Quote:

service httpd configtest
service httpd restart

You can force ads in header or footer on any site. You just would have to create a file containing your ads and save it as somead.html in say /usr/local/apache/htdocs

Then do the addition within the <VirtualHost> </VirtualHost> section of the given site in the httpd.conf file.

example of having a footer ad on a given site is:

Quote:

<IfModule mod_layout.c>
LayoutFooter "/usr/local/apache/htdocs/someadfooter.html"
LayoutHeader "/usr/local/apache/htdocs/someadheader.html"
</IfModule>

Then all the pages on the given site would carry footer ads containing whatever you put up in the someadfooter.html file.
