If you run the Netscape/iPlanet Server Manager, the browser-based

Apache Web Server
ColdFusion Server has been tested with Apache version 1.3.6. To download Apache,
go to the Apache Web site at
http://www.apache.org.
ColdFusion Server includes a precompiled binary module for Apache,
mod_coldfusion_so
, that was tested with Apache 1.3.6 through 1.3.19. This module
works with most versions of Apache. To compile another version of Apache, see the
Apache Readme file at /opt/coldfusion/webserver/apache/readme.
Adding the ColdFusion Server module to Apache 1.3.x
You can find the ColdFusion Server module in the installation directory (usually
/opt) under the coldfusion/webserver/apache directory. The prebuilt module
shipped with ColdFusion Server 5 is built with Apache 1.3.6.
This module does not work with earlier Apache 1.3.x versions, and it may not work
with later versions, if Apache Group changes MODULE_MAGIC_NUMBER_MAJOR
(src src/include/ap_mmn.h in the Apache source).
The module provided with ColdFusion Server should work with most versions of
Apache, but if you have a custom distribution of Apache, you must build your own
version of Apache. With a C compiler (gcc or SUN cc) , you can build a version of
mod_coldfusion.so that should work with a version of Apache 1.3.x. For more
information, see the Readme file in /opt/coldfusion/webserver/apache.
To make the Apache HTTPD load the ColdFusion Server module at startup, you must
configure the mod_so module. This module is not built into Apache by default.
To determine whether the HTTD module is available, run the
httpd -1
command. If
the module is present, mod_so.c displays in the list of compiled-in modules. For
more information, see the Apache documentation (README.DSO).
To configure and add the ColdFusion Server module for Apache:
1 Configure this module into the Apache build by running this command:
$ ./configure --enable-module=so <other apache options>
$ make
$ make install
2 If you use gcc to compile Apache, include these environment variables for
configure:
$ env LIBS=/usr/lib/libC.so.5 CFLAGS=-fPIC \
./configure --enable-module=so <other apache options>
