See Integrating Crowd with Apache for background information and usage instructions.
This project is a fork of Atlassian's Apache Connector for Crowd with the following changes:
- Mathias Burger's Apache 2.4 compatibility patch has been applied.
- I have written the necessary files to allow for packaging of this for Debian-based distributions. This has currently only been successfully tested against Ubuntu 14.04 (trusty).
Sadly, Atlassian have dropped support for this module. I'm not an experienced C coder myself, but I'd be happy to accept pull requests which are approved by various parties and integrate them into future verisons.
The following instructions assume your current working directory is the directory where cwdapache is checked out, and that Git is available on the build machine (it's used during the build):
git clone https://github.com/fgimian/cwdapache.git
cd cwdapache
Last tested on CentOS 6.5:
yum install autoconf automake curl-devel httpd-devel libtool libxml2-devel subversion-devel curl httpd-devel libtool libxml2 mod_dav_svn
libtoolize
autoreconf --install
./configure
make
If you'd like to build an RPM for later installation:
yum install rpm-build
echo "%_topdir $HOME/rpmbuild" > ~/.rpmmacros
mkdir -p ~/rpmbuild/{SOURCES,BUILD,SRPMS,RPMS}
rm mod_authnz_crowd-*.tar.gz
make dist # builds source distribution which is used as the source for the RPM
cp mod_authnz_crowd-*.tar.gz ~/rpmbuild/SOURCES
sed "s/Version: .*/Version: $(./version-gen)/" packages/mod_authnz_crowd.spec > packages/mod_authnz_crowd-current.spec
rpmbuild -ba --target x86_64 packages/mod_authnz_crowd-current.spec # or '--target x86' for a 32 bit build
rm packages/mod_authnz_crowd-current.spec
echo "Your RPMS should be in..." && ls -R ~/rpmbuild/SRPMS ~/rpmbuild/RPMS
Last tested on CentOS 5.10.
Follow the instructions for CentOS 6, but:
- you must use a more recent version of libtool. libtool 2.2.6b is what CentOS 6 ships with at time of writing, and is known to work.

If you'd like to build a Debian for later installation:

sudo mk-build-deps -i -r
dpkg-buildpackage -us -us
echo "Your Debian package should be in..." && ls ../libapache2-mod-auth-crowd_*.deb
make install
