Hi, I'm a novice. Going to try building mod_fcgid. Steps I've done:

The source for mod_fcgid is distributed in a .dsw project workspace file which i converted to a solution and plan to build it using VS2008 (Visual Studio 9.0).
Instructions are located here:http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/httpd/mod_fcgid/trunk/README-FCGID

My version of Apache/httpd is 2.4
Code:
C:\Apache24>httpd -v
Server version: Apache/2.4.55 (Win64)


Quote:
On windows you can overlay mod_fcgid source files into the httpd source
file tree, and make the following changes for an in-tree build;

* Manually add the project mod_fcgid.dsp to the Apache.dsw workspace.
* Ensure the BuildBin project includes the mod_fcgid project dependency.
* Add mod_fcgid project dependencies of libhttpd, libapr and libaprutil.
* Remove /D "FCGID_APXS_BUILD" from the # ADD CPP lines of
modules\fcgid\mod_fcgid.dsp.
* Replace /I "$(APACHE2_HOME)/include" with /I "../../modules/loggers"
for both # ADD CPP lines of modules\fcgid\mod_fcgid.dsp.
* Remove the libraries libapr[-1].lib libaprutil[-1].lib libhttpd.lib
and the /libpath:"$(APACHE2_HOME)\lib" flag from the # ADD LINK32
lines of modules\fcgid\mod_fcgid.dsp.

Note that mod_fcgid.so needs to be added to the module installation
lines in Makefile.win, or you must manually copy the .so module from
modules\fcgid\Release after compiling.

I don't have the Apache.dsw workspace which means I downloaded a binary for Apache from ApacheHaus or Apache Lounge, not the source code. Oops; go back and download the source code for Apache. Instructions are located here:https://httpd.apache.org/docs/current/platform/win_compiling.html

I'll see if I can figure this out within a week.

You could take a look at the following HOWTO - https://www.apachelounge.com/viewtopic.php?t=8609

This variant covers building Apache (including mod_fcgid) from scratch on Windows, using CMake bundled with Visual Studio (albeit a later version).
