Re: New to apache (Apache Users)

I am a little surprised that they didn't recommend updating to 2.2.25 (the latest in the 2.2.x branch) or move up to 2.4.x branch. In any case.....

What OS are you using?

I don't have the changes/issues from 2.2.9 through 2.2.15 in my head....If you read the release notes for those versions, they should outline what changed and what may need to be changed on your system.

My experience is that doing just about any Apache upgrade usually breaks something. They way I do it is to read the release notes and make sure I understand the potential side effects of the update and then look into solutions to those potential problems so that if I do have a side effect, I have some chance of resolving it. I am not doing the upgrades on a production system so I don't have the speed urgency.

If it is a production system, can you clone it, try the upgrade, see if it works, and then switch over to the upgraded system??

Good Morning,
The person who installed apache for has left and we recently had a security audit done that recommended we upgrade our Apache 2.2.9 installation to 2.2.15 or later.
I have searched trying to find information on how to do this upgrade and whether or not it will break something and found nothing that made me comfortable doing this. Could you point me in the right direction for finding out how to do this upgrade.

I really appreciate any input you may have.
