I'm developing an Apache2 module that requires and external library. I'm able to build the module and generate the DSO (.so file). However, whenever the server tries to load the module, I get undefined symbol errors and the server fails to start.

I think it is because the shared object of the library is not being loaded. But I'm not sure how I can tell Apache to load it (or where to find it). Any ideas?

Answering myself here!

Need to add a LoadFile directive in the .load file of the module before LoadModule. 

LoadFile /usr/lib/xx.so
LoadModule yy_module /usr/lib/apache2/modules/mod_yy.so

I should note that apparently the order is important here and the dependencies should be loaded first before the Apache2 module itself.
