- Apache
- Version 2.0 (and up)
-
- What is it?
- -----------
-
- Apache is an HTTP server designed as a plug-in replacement for
- the NCSA server version 1.3 (or 1.4). It fixes numerous bugs in
- the NCSA server and includes many frequently requested new
- features, and has an API which allows it to be extended to meet
- users' needs more easily.
-
- The Latest Version
- ------------------
-
- Details of the latest version can be found on the Apache HTTP
- server project page under http://httpd.apache.org/.
-
- Documentation
- -------------
-
- The documentation available as of the date of this release is
- also included, in HTML format, in the htdocs/manual/ directory.
- For the most up-to-date documentation can be found on
- http://httpd.apache.org/docs/.
-
- Installation
- ------------
-
- Apache 2.0 uses autoconf for configuration and installation. To create
- Apache's autoconf script, you will need libtool 1.3.3 or higher, and
- autoconf 2.13 or newer. Those tools will not be required if you are just
- using a package downloaded from apache.org, they are only required for
- developers.
-
- To configure Apache 2.0 run the following commands.
-
- ./buildconf (not required unless you are a developer)
- ./configure [autoconf arguments] [apache arguments]
- make
- make install
-
- The buildconf script is very important. Just running autoconf will not
- leave the directory tree in a usable state.
