 Posted: Wed 25 Nov '15 20:38 Post subject: Cannot load modules/mod_security2.so |
 |
|
I have successfully installed latest build of Apache for Win32 running with PHP on my local development server (localhost) (Win32 2.4.17 VC14) (Source: Apache Lounge). This runs happily with the .conf files I have set up and also with the PHP applications under development.
However, it doesn't run with the - apparently - correct version of mod_security.
When I try to run & install the mod_security-2.9.0-win32-VC14 and/or the mod_evasive2-1.10.2-win32-VC14 (also both from Apache Lounge), then the httpd will not run and if I try to install Apache as a service, the installer reports:
| Code: | | httpd: Syntax error on line 120 of httpd.conf: Cannot load modules/mod_security2.so into server: The specified module could not be found. |
However, the module is in the modules directory along with all other active modules, which all load correctly and cause no issue.
If the module:
| Code: | | LoadModule security2_module modules/mod_security2.so |
is commented out in the .conf file with a '#', then the webserver loads and runs without issue.
I also have the following installed and running without issue and as recommended:
| Code: | | LoadModule unique_id_module modules/mod_unique_id.so |
As both webserver and module are compiled under the same compiler version and both come from the same source (Apache Lounge) does anyone know why this doesn't work?

Absolutely sure downloaded module is also Win32 ?
For Win32, in the .zip is a file -- Build with VC14 x86 -- |

Thanks for reply.
Absolutely certain.
This copied from ZIP file next to *.dll files:
-- Build with VC14 x86 --
To be certain, I again copied the files from this ZIP directly into the Apache folders.
This is code within http.conf:
| Code: | #-------------------------------------------------------------------------
# Add-in module from Apache Lounge for additional features
#-------------------------------------------------------------------------
LoadModule unique_id_module modules/mod_unique_id.so
LoadModule security2_module modules/mod_security2.so
<IfModule security2_module>
# Disguise server signature
#-----------------------
SecRuleEngine DetectionOnly
#ServerSignature Off
#ServerTokens Full
#SecServerSignature "Microsoft-IIS/6.0"
</IfModule> |
Only works if I comment out the security2_module. |

Strange and I cannot duplicate
Clean machine, your config snippet with fresh downloads of:
httpd-2.4.17-win32-VC14.zip
mod_evasive2-1.10.2-win32-VC14.zip
mod_security-2.9.0-win32-VC14.zip
https://www.apachehaus.net/temp/al2417modsec290.png
you can see both mod_security2 (bottom second from left) and mod_evasive2 (right above mod_security) showing as loaded modules.
I have been through this before myself and it was something really simple that I just could not see cause my eyes were not fresh enough.
I'm curious, from the command prompt again, what is the output of:
dir *.dll |

Not that I can see.
Does mod_security or any of the *.dll's rely upon any specific Services under the Windows version?
I'm running Windows 7 Pro Service pack 1. |

Is there a yajl.dll and/or libcurl.dll in Windows, Windows/System32, SysWow64 or in a folder of your windows Path ?
>set
And see under PATH= |

The command:
httpd.exe -t
uncovered the issue. The ServerRoot directory was set incorrectly. So, while all the php and virtual hosts were correct, the ServerRoot was pointing in the wrong place.
Stupid.
Everything now appears to be working correctly and at least I've had the opportunity to go through the .conf files in detail.
Many thanks for your excellent help on this, it is much appreciated.

| Same thing happened to me. My solution was to make sure the C++ Redistributable Visual Studio 2017 is correctly installed. If your webserver is Win32(x86), so be sure to use x86 C++ compiler. Hope this help. |

|
|
Windows Server 2012 SP2 (64-bit).
Apache 2.4.33 (64-bit) installed to "D:\Apache24"
Apache and mod_security2 x64 downloaded from the
same latest apachelounge.com page.
Visual C++ Redist 2017 x64 installed.
Also tried it with earlier version of Visual C++ x64.

Hi there.
Apache 2.4.33 x64 starts without mod_security2.so.
Adding LoadModule for mod_security2.so and
mod_unique_id.so fails with syntax error.
Applied and reviewed all suggestions in this thread.
Q: Would the build using HTTPD_ROOT "/apache" cause a
problem for loading mod_security2.so ?
Q: Running a dependency anaylzer tool on mod_security2
reveals KERNEL32.DLL and WS2_32.DLL 32-bit files despite
that I acquired the 64-bit mod_security2 from the Apache
2.4.33 64-bit page.

Running here Win64.
Be sure you downloaded the Win64 VC15 mod_security.
be sure ServerRoot "D:/apache24"
And follow exactly the readme:
Copy mod_security2.so to your D:/apache24/apache/modules folder
Copy yajl.dll and libcurl.dll to your D:/apache24/apache/bin folder
And you must have:
LoadModule security2_module modules/mod_security2.so
LoadModule unique_id_module modules/mod_unique_id.so |

Verified mod_security requirements as requested.
All downloads from:
https://www.apachelounge.com/download/.
I have your libcurl.dll and yajl.dll in both
\bin and \modules.
--
I noticed that your build already includes libxml2.dll,
so perhaps libxml2 from your build is conflicting
with a preexisting libxml2.dll.
--
A global Windows Explorer search on all these DLL files
in the Windows set PATH shows that Trend Micro Scan
references libcurl.dll in folder:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Trend Micro\Client Server Security Agent\CCSF\module\scan\ . I will try to turn off Trend Micro as well as do a global search in the machine for
any matching DLLs used by mod_security2.
--
Am using in Windows D:\Apache24, not D:/Apache24 path.
Can Windows Server SmartSecurity feature prevent
LoadModule? |
