Greetings comrades! I'm currently administering a rather impressive system and I've been tasked with upgrading & patching many applications that have been needing upgrades for some time now. One of them happens to be httpd Apache that's currently running on RHEL 5 @ version 2.2.3 ( httpd-2.2.3-53.el5_7.3 ). I've worked with Red Hat in the past but I'm a bit rusty, and I haven't encountered a task like this yet. All I want to do is upgrade from version 2.2.3 to 2.2.22, ideally overwriting the existing version and retaining all data / conf files / directory structure. Here's a small list of where I'm at so far: Downloaded the current version httpd 2.2.22 from Apache.org Verified with md5 checksum Configured as ./configure - -prefix /etc/httpd/ Make Make install Apache installs the new version to the existing /etc/httpd/ directory, but the command ' service httpd start ' still runs the old version of Apache. Also this command, httpd -V, still outputs the old version of Apache as 2.2.3; Is there more tweaking needed in the OS to tell Apache where the new install is? I shouldn't need to remove the old version first, then install the new version should I?
