Hi all,
A couple things I'd like to ask for some help or pointers to
thorough documentation on..
I'm lost on so many levels right now concerning FPSE's and Apache..
I decided I was going to learn how to "build" websites through Frontpage
as something amusing to do on the side, and to help out a friend on
maintaining already built sites. I have Apache installed on MdK 9 just
fine, and I can publish with FP2k2 and access the sites just fine from
other machines. No big deal so far..here's where my questions begin.
1) Upgrading Apache. I downloaded a newer version of Apache and followed
the instructions..or did I? Where does Apache "live" on a stock install
of MDK9? If I point it to anywhere it doesn't matter, the scripts finish
fine and say it was successful, but when I run a http -v it still tells
me 1.3.26 and NOT the version I was hoping it had upgraded to.
2) Frontpage Server Extensions. What a pain. (to me) Again here's a
question of where does what live at default? But with this one I
actually managed to point it to the correct httpd somehow, but this also
involves DOWNGRADING the current version which I would prefer to avoid.
I can start the install, go through the configuration, but at the very
end where it asks for the user and group so it can chmod it errors out
saying there is no active local server on 8080, it fails out, I run a
httpd -v and it shows me the version the FPSE downgraded it to.
So to sum it up..
How would I PROPERLY upgrade Apache? Where does it live? /etc/httpd ?
How do I PROPERLY install the FPSE's and KEEP the current version of
Apache that I am running and not have this error out on me during the
config?
ANY help would be greatly appreciated, and I will be glad to do whatever
to clarify issues further if someone does deem me worthy to help ;p
