Topic: mod_jk 1.2.35 from apache.org with apache 2.4.1

[mwu]

Hi

I want to use mod_jk 1.3.35 module for apache 2.4.x from apache.org, with the win32 apache 2.4.1 from apachelounge.com.

Unfortunately, this error occures:
Module ".\\mod_jk.c" is not compatible with this version of Apache (found 20120109, need 20120211)

Will apacheloung.com provide a compatible mod_jk module?

I know, I could also use proxy_ajp, instead of mod_jk.
But I have good experiences with mod_jk...

It looks like the Windows mod_jk 1.2.35 binaries for httpd-2.4 were compiled with a pre-release version of httpd. I posted a note in the tomcat-users list, so maybe they will get around to fixing this.

You can pretty easily compile it yourself to work with the 2.4.1 binary from Apache Lounge. You will need these tools installed to compile mod_jk on Windows32:

.NET Framework 4, which is a prerequisite of the Windows SDK
the Windows SDK for Windows 7 (use this same SDK for all Windows systems: WinXP, Win7, etc. It includes a VC10 compiler.)
the Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 SP1 Redistributable Package (x86) (You probably already have this, since it is required for Apache Lounge binaries.)

To compile mod_jk, download the source code, unzip it, open a "Windows SDK 7.1 Command Prompt" from the Start menu, change to the directory where you unzipped the source code, ensure your web server is stopped, and do this:

Thank you for the information.

I will try to build mod_jk with your instructions.

-----------

The new apache.org mod_jk binary from today is working with the 32bit apachelounge apache 2.4.1.

So, I don't need to build mod_jk.

Thank you for the support!
