./configure: error: the HTTP gzip module requires the zlib library.

It seems that you encountered an error during the configuration process. The error message suggests that the HTTP gzip module requires the zlib library, which might be missing on your system. To resolve this issue, you can follow these steps:

1. Make sure you have zlib library installed on your system. You can check if it is installed by running the following command:

   dpkg -l | grep zlib

If it is not installed, you can install it using the package manager specific to your operating system. For example, if you are using Ubuntu, you can run:

   sudo apt-get install zlib1g-dev

2. Once the zlib library is installed, rerun the `./configure` command for your software.

   ./configure

This should now detect the zlib library and proceed with the configuration process without any errors.

If you continue to face issues, please provide more details about your system and software you are trying to configure, so that I can assist you further.
