The default I am referring to, here is an excerpt from apache.org: "By default, make install will install all the files in /usr/local/apache2/bin, /usr/local/apache2/lib etc. You can specify an installation prefix other than /usr/local/apache2 using --prefix, for instance --prefix=$HOME."
I am trying to figure out why it did not create these directories, with or without the --prefix or --enable-layout options. ----- Original Message ----- From: timmy <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Tuesday, November 15, 2005 4:12 pm Subject: Re: [clug-talk] apache install > There aren't any 'apache' defaults.
