When trying to install using yum

We get error "Requires: httpd-mmn"

and in yum.conf we have below excluded

exclude=httpd nginx php mysql mairadb python-psutil python2-psutil

If we remove httpd from yum.conf that might over write existing package.

Please suggest shall we allow overwriting of httpd packages ?

Thank You !!

I was able to install mod_security, follow below steps:

get source code

wget https://www.modsecurity.org/tarball/2.9.1/modsecurity-2.9.1.tar.gz

change directory

cd /opt

extract

tar xzf modsecurity-2.9.1.tar.gz

cd modsecurity-2.9.1

./configure --with-apxs=/www/server/apache/bin/apxs --with-apr=/www/server/apache/bin/apr-1-config --with-apu=/www/server/apache/bin/apu-1-config
make
make install

Add module to apache module dir

ln -s /usr/local/modsecurity/lib/mod_security2.so /www/server/apache/modules/

Now you need to add following two lines too your httpd.conf file, so that it can load modsecurity module.

httpd.conf would be located at : /www/server/apache/conf

LoadModule security2_module modules/mod_security2.so
LoadModule unique_id_module modules/mod_unique_id.so
