Apache httpd.h file missing on MacOSX after Mavericks Upgrade (** Updated for Yosemite **)

Question

I am trying to run the passenger-install-apache2-module command and I keep getting this error:

ext/apache2/mod_passenger.c:25:10: fatal error: \'httpd

Answer 1

During the mavericks upgrade several configuration files were saved as previous and replaced by the install including:

/etc/apache2/httpd.conf~previous
/etc/group~previous
/etc/php.ini.default-5.2-previous
/etc/sshd_config~previous
/etc/syslog.conf~previous

Answer 2

Another, related issue, is to do with /usr/share/httpd/build/config_vars.mk you can see that cc is set incorrectly, and CC should read CC = /usr/bin/cc, likewise CPP should read CC = /usr/bin/cc -E

Answer 3

I was having the same error. You need to:

1. Update/install xcode.
2. run xcode-select --install from the command line to reinstall the command line tools.

It worked for me, hopefully for you too!

The update also commented out the line:

Include /private/etc/apache2/extra/httpd-vhosts.conf

So once I uncommented that it all loaded as normal.

** UPDATE FOR YOSEMITE **

In your /etc/apache2/httpd.conf file you'll need to change:

<Directory /> AllowOverride none Require all denied </Directory>

To:

<Directory /> AllowOverride none Require all granted </Directory>
