Hello,

Need to get mod_flvx to load, but giving me issues.

1. Downloaded from https://www.apachehaus.net/modules/mod_flvx/ [64bit]
2. Copied the mod_flvx.so file to /usr/lib/apache2/modules
3. Here is where I run into issues: I have tried several variants but no luck.
        created a mod_flvx.conf in /etc/apache2/mods-available and /etc/apache2/conf-available each time using a2enmod mod_flvx.conf or just flvx
        Using a2enmod doesn even show the module as even available for enable.

       The other way tried was two lines in /etc/apache2/apache2.conf :

LoadModule flvx_module /usr/lib/apache2/modules/mod_flvx.so
AddHandler flv-stream .flv

followed by service apache2 reload and even restart. [with root]

Here I get hard error on reload:

Output of config test was:
apache2: Syntax error on line 229 of /etc/apache2/apache2.conf: Cannot load /usr/lib/apache2/modules/mod_flvx.so into server: /usr/lib/apache2/modules/mod_flvx.        so: invalid ELF header
Action 'configtest' failed.

I know many people have had success with this mod in Apache 2.2, any ideas how to get it working in Apache 2.4? Very appreciated. And any pointers on proper handler config a bonus. Thanks!

That module you downloaded is for Windows and will not work on Linux.

You will most likely have to download the source and build it yourself unless by some strange coincidence it can be installed thru app-get

Ahhhh, of all things. To think I missed the fine-print. Normally I would expect a .dll format for windows not .so ; so my assumption was Linux. Nice. Yet helpful. Thanks for the quick response, at least I wasn't going totally crazy with this!
