And event ports. Big picture IMO: 1. in absence of --with-mpm=FOO, the default MPM is selected based on some really geeky gorp 2. The recommended solution is a. specify --enable-mpms-shared=all so that you have available anything known to work on your platform b. If you specifically want to use prefork or worker, ALSO add --with-mpm=prefork or --with-mpm=worker c.
