[users@httpd] Re: Subversion and Apache versions

Thanks for the reply David (and others too)!

Ok I downloaded the Apache 2 RPM from that location. The RPM name of
that package is 'Apache'. Are you saying that installing this RPM
will prevent files being overwritten that belong to Apache 1.3.22?
After I install that RPM, what will be returned when I run 'rpm -q
apache'?

Thanks
Jason

Re: Subversion and Apache versions

Posted by David Summers <da...@summersoft.fay.ar.us>.
If you look at the file name it is apache-2.0.X-Y.i386.rpm.  If you look 
at the contents of it (rpm -qlp apache-2.0.X-Y.i386.rpm) you will see that 
it puts the apache 2.X files and configuration in the /usr/local/apache2 
directory with an initialization script of /etc/init.d/httpd2.

It is completely independent of the apache 1.X stuff and the server can be 
turned on and off (/etc/init.d/httpd2 [ start | stop ]) independently of 
the apache 1.X server.

When to packages are installed with the same name (but different version 
or releases) then "rpm -q apache" will show both packages installed.  
(Same thing when you install multiple kernel packages).

RPM was designed for that. :-)

 Have fun.

   - David
