Apache httpd 2.4.53-1 with brotli compression library from Google, TLS 1.3 Final (RFC 8446), http2 (HTTP/2) support for Red Hat Enterprise Linux and CentOS 7/8, Alma Linux 8, Rocky Linux 8 added to repository. mod_http2 2.0.2 is built dynamically against OpenSSL 1.1.1m. Links:
Since 2.4.33 we added brotli compression library. Since 2.4.35 release we start building Apache httpd against OpenSSL 1.1.1*. Since 2.4.37 release TLS 1.3 final version (not to be confused with any draft versions) is supported and enabled by default. Since 2.4.43-4 release we built OpenSSL as a separate package that installs to the separate directory (/opt/codeit/openssl111) and does not affects system libraries. Please note that TLS 1.3 final version is supported in Chrome 70+ and Mozilla Firefox 63+. brotli support is already included in base RPM file. All you need is to add filters like
AddOutputFilterByType BROTLI_COMPRESS text/html text/plain text/xml text/css text/javascript application/javascript
Hi Alexander,
I just updated my httpd (CentOS7) from the CodeIT repository today. But the headers show Apache 2.4.53 with OpenSSL-1.1.1l (instead of OpenSSL-1.1.1m), like this:
Apache/2.4.53 (codeit) OpenSSL/1.1.1l mod_fcgid/2.3.9 mod_nss/1.0.14 NSS/3.28.4 PHP/7.4.28
Could there be a mistake? Any chance that you will be releasing something with OpenSSL-1.1.1n (instead of m), soon?
Thanks,
Jonah
Hi Jonah,
Please run
yum upgrade openssl111-libs
We already have openssl 1.1.1n from the very first day of its release.
Hi Alexander,
Thank you very much for your solution. I have successfully followed your instructions and it has solved my problem.
Thank you for taking care of these OpenSSL things for all of us,
Jonah
Oh dear! I’m so sorry! I was unaware you are located in Ukraine. Stay stafe.
We are now working from the relatively safe place, so builds are on-time for now.
Ukrainian Army performs well, so we can continue the builds now.
I am so relieved that you are safe, and not only for my own selfish reasons for using CodeIT repo. I am genuinely happy that you are alive and healthy because you are such good people who are performing a valuable service that is available to the public for free.
Dear Alex stay safe.
i do however have question.
on my almalinux 8 machine i enable the codeit repo and then try to disabable the httpd module:
i then get this error:

After that i get no update from codeit.
how can i fix this?

Dear Stefan,
