Re: Stable Version of Httpd

[Harsimranjit singh Kler <simran4u2@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi 
Thanks for reply
i have these setting for build::

Server version: Apache/2.2.17 (Unix)

Server built:   Apr 19 2011 21:11:59

Server's Module Magic Number: 20051115:25

Server loaded:  APR 1.4.2, APR-Util 1.3.10

Compiled using: APR 1.4.2, APR-Util 1.3.10

Architecture:   64-bit

Server MPM:     Worker

  threaded:     yes (fixed thread count)

forked:     yes (variable process
count


1)i am using worker mpm and had done lot performance  tests to set parameters like start server,ServerLimit  ,MaxClients  etc.So now i can use same parameter values or again i have to go through that tests for values?

2)I have plan to use SSL as well so all required ssl libs are available and compatible?

3) Using modjk any change for that?


thanks

2.4.1 is current stable version, transition to 2.4 from 2.2 is fairly painless, some things have changed,
remove NameVirtualHost, SSLMutex, LockFile settings, if you build from source with no specific MPM, by default you;ll use the event MPM,  it's not a problem, but if you used to use prefork and start with 20 servers,upgrade and only see 5 or 6, thats why, but its nothing to worry about, it scales well itself.

You will need to rebuild all external modules of course given its a new major (like php, mod_perl etc)
