Preface this with new to this subject but:
We have always used an apache instance that was a bundled solution, such at IBM version, and now want to build our own. The build process is well documented, that is not the issue, the deployment is the issue.
what I did was use a prefix like /opt/BaseBuild and that works as expected but now when I copy that Apache to a new home, say /opt/WebSite/Apache1 and try to start it, it keeps pointing to /opt/BaseBuild.
I tried editing all the config files to use the new home, but it looks like the path the logs/files/libraries are all hard coded to the orignal path and noticed that If you remove/ rename the orginal path, Apache will no longer start.
Assume I am going about this wrong, and want to really build a deployable version of Apache to be used many times with a minor change in the path on many servers.
A google does not really show how to do this, so either I am doing it wrong, or this is not common practice, but still something I need to do.
Here is a sample config command:
./configure --prefix=/ opt/BaseBuild --with-suexec-bin=bin/suexec --enable-mods-shared=all --with-mpm=worker --enable-ssl --with-ssl --enable-proxy --enable-cache --enable-disk-ache --with-ldap --enable-ldap --enable-authnz-ldap --enable-cgid
--enable-authn-anon --enable-file-cache --enable-authn-alias --disable-imagemapc
Then you make, and Make install.
Thanks.
