LoadModule & AddModule in httpd.conf

[Prince of Code]

Hi all,
I would like to know what is the difference between LoadModule &
AddModule configuration directives in httpd.conf of Apache server.
I guess LoadModule is for loading dynamic modules which or in
object file and the later is to load dynamic modules which are in
source form like c source file. Is that right.


Looking for a elobrate explanation.

Thankz

Possibly there are people here, who can answer that off the top of
their head, but you are most likely better off asking in a more
appropriate newsgroup, like "alt.apache.con figuration".

[quote - AddModule directive]
The server can have modules compiled in which are not actively in use.
This directive can be used to enable the use of those modules.

Actually, Bent's response is right on. You should ask questions in the
appropriate newsgroup. Your question is an Apache configuration
question, not related to PHP coding at all. So you should be asking in
an Apache newsgroup (or list server).

Oh my, and I thought I gave you a polite advise, sorry you didn't
like it, let me try again.

Your post *is* off-topic. If not obvious from the name of the
newsgroup, then take the word of Jerry, from what I know is a regular
long time poster, who as such take part in defining the boundaries for
what is on topic and what is not.

Off-topic posting is not an advisable conduct for at least two reasons
that I can think of.

1.: Every newsgroup has a group of regulars with a special interest in
that particular topic, and they spend a great amount of time
discussing it and helping strangers with their questions. It is in
everybody's interest or one could wish, that this communication is not
cluttered by too much off-topic or unnecessary chit chat, beyond the
normal level of social interaction of course. *If* you don't respect
that, then those regulars, most likely being the best capable of
giving you top quality help and advice, *will* ignore you. You will
then for a time, be stuck with non-regular crowd, consisting of
insensitive pricks like me or ignorant whiners like you.

2.: In any newsgroup, Off-Topic questions are more likely to get
opinionated answers and perhaps inadvertently plain wrong answers, as
it is less likely for posters of that group to have in-depth
knowledge. It has a direct impact on the questioner, but may force
others, googleing for answer, to have to drudge through unsatisfactory
explanations, before coming to the good answers to questions, put to
the right people in the right place. Of course, to avoid all the
garbage, a wise place to start searching would be places related to
the topic of the question. As it is a wise place to start a search, it
is also a wise place to put the questions.

It was straight from the definition in the manual. I doubt any answer,
from a non-apache newsgroup, will be much different. For a more
elaborate answer, please ask in a newsgroup related to apache.
