Only apache 2.4 installed in /usr works fine but not in "/usr/local/apache2" please help me.

[Padmahas Bn <padmahas@xxxxxxxxx>]

I noticed that apr installed without --prefix option installs apr to /usr/local by default.

I also noticed apr-utils requires "--with-apr=/usr/local/apr" option to configure.

And another thing is apache2.4 installed with "--prefix=/usr" option will install inside /usr path, merging things with already existing folders and creating folders which doesn't exist.

And the installation which is only made this way is working fine and I can see result in 127.0.0.1.

Can some one explain why I cannot start server from /usr/local/apache2 ?

Please help me.
