Title: Upgrading Apache from 2.2 to 2.4 Author: Dirkjan Ochtman <[email protected]> Content-Type: text/plain Posted: 2016-01-17 Revision: 1 News-Item-Format: 1.0 Display-If-Installed: www-servers/apache With the 2.4 branch released by upstream almost 4 years ago, stable Gentoo systems will soon be upgraded from apache 2.2 to apache 2.4. When upgrading, some configuration changes will have to be made. Upstream has a handy guide: https://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/upgrading.html For more information on all the new features, start here: https://httpd.apache.org/docs/trunk/new_features_2_4.html After emerging Apache 2.4, you will also need to rebuild any third-party modules: emerge -av1 /usr/lib/apache2/modules --exclude=www-servers/apache === Remaining question: how do get the timing of the news item to line up with the stabilization? Or do we just start by sending out the news item, then file the stabilization bugs so that people at least have advance notice? Cheers, Dirkjan
