I can’t comment on the Mod_rewrite and mod_delete as I don’t use them on my server. As for using (attempting to use) the 2.2. config file — don’t do it. There are some important differences which will cause thing to fail. Diff the two config files and then pick “2.2 old stuff” and put it in the 2.4 config file. For example: 2.2 Deny from all vs 2.4 Require all denied T.T.F.N. William H.
