  injection might load a module that isn't wanted.
  

Problem conclusion

• The core of Apache was updated to add an "IgnoreModule"
  directive. It takes a name argument, the same as the first
  parameter to a later "LoadModule"
  
  If a module is named via IgnoreModule, subsequent LoadModule
  directives for the same name will be short-circuited and have no
  affect.
  
  Usage is like:
  
  IgnoreModule oneagent_module
  
  The fix for this APAR is targeted for inclusion in fix pack
  9.0.5.27. For more information, see 'Recommended Updates for
