Notes: The Apache2 2.2.29 source packages includes APR 1.4.8 and APR-UTIL 1.5.2?? Paths and prefixes must be specified since OS X does include some libraries by default. These are not necessarily the right versions for our purposes so we must explicitly specify the paths and libraries we wish to compile against. Steps to Complete on VM- Install latest updates
- Setup OS X environment, compile Apache2 and modules from source
- Show hidden files
defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles TRUE && killall Finder

Restart Apache Test to see if it’s loaded apachectl -t -D DUMP_MODULES apachectl -M h264_streaming_module (shared) h264_streaming_module (shared) If h264 module is not listed then verify settings. Test to see if it’s working as expected https://code.google.com/p/modwsgi/issues/detail?id=312Apple in MacOS X 10.8 and 10.9 and 10.10 breaks the ability to compile Apache modules. Try going to: cd /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Toolchains/ and do: ln -s XcodeDefault.xctoolchain OSX10.10.xctoolchain
sudo ln -s /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Toolchains/XcodeDefault.xctoolchain/ /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Toolchains/OSX10.10.xctoolchainIf installing locally here are some differences:
