Well, when I run make install it stops and says that apache is not a group neither a user.
Do I have to follow any apache installation procedure that I don't know?
I installed apache2 from Debian distribution just using apt-get install apache2 from the root user.

Is there anyway to fix this?

Thanks,

Carles.

It is possible that your web user is not called apache but something else instead. Have you checked the Debian docs in the Wiki?

Under Debain, Apache normally runs as www-data under group www-data

Here's a ./configure that works for me under debian;

./configure --with-webdir=/var/www/zm --with-cgidir=/usr/lib/cgi-bin/ --with-webuser=www-data --with-webgroup=www-data

correct, that was the problem
Thanks!
