In Progress [ZC-7091] cPanel Apache and mod_auth_openidc

[woddy]

Hello,

is it possible to have mod_auth_openidc (zmartzone/mod_auth_openidc) module compiled for cPanel version of Apache?
I was trying to compile it by myself, unfortunately, I have got "Segmentation Fault" and I don't know how to fix it.

Thanks for the info.

Hello,

We don't have it right now but we do have a case for it open ZC-7091 - I can't give you a timeframe when we will have it though. We do have a tutorial on building your own RPM's if you hadn't seen it yet: How to Build and Install Custom RPMs | cPanel & WHM Documentation

Hi, thank you for your reply. I will wait for the official support of the module.

Hello. Any progress on the ticket please?

There haven't been any updates on this internal case yet but I will update this thread when there are.

Another year has gone by, is there any update here? I really need this, and I can't seem to find a workaround.

I checked the case and spoke with that team and there currently are not plans to implement this. The case is still open, but it's not actively being worked on at this time.

Is it possible that, if they can't implement this, that they can at least find a workaround? I've tried an awful lot of stuff to get this installed, and it is pretty stubborn.

Thanks!

The only workaround available would be to build a custom RPM as mentioned in Lauren's post.

If anyone else is seeking a workaround, I seem to have found one.

First, download the package for `ea-mod_auth_openidc` here: https://mirrorcache.opensuse.org/re...sit_kpoole/AgilisIT_CentOS-7_Standard/x86_64/
but do not install it. Installing it using rpm/yum will succeed, but it will also break apache.

Instead, extract the package:

$ mkdir test
$ cd test
$ wget https://mirrorcache.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/agilisit_kpoole/AgilisIT_CentOS-7_Standard/x86_64/ea-apache24-mod_auth_openidc-2.2.0-1.89.el7.x86_64.rpm
$ rpm2cpio ea-apache24-mod_auth_openidc-2.2.0-1.89.el7.x86_64.rpm | cpio -idmv
$ cp usr/lib64/apache2/modules/mod_auth_openidc.so  /etc/apache2/modules/
$ cp etc/apache2/conf.modules.d/mod_auth_openidc.conf /etc/apache2/conf.modules.d/
$ apachectl restart

The rpm wants to install the library module in /usr/lib64/apache2/modules which is not the path that ea-apache seems to want to use.

I'm still configuring it for use, but at least so far, this will load and continue to run.
