Is this correct? Then I can slowly migrate my configuration file over to the new installation directories? Yes, and yes. This is how you would for example set up the light/heavy server system where you have two copies of Apache running at the same time: a non-modperl server listening on port 80 serves requests for static pages itself, while passing requests for dynamic pages to a modperl server listening on a different port. It's in the Guide: http://perl.apache.org/guide. Don't try to run both Apaches at the same time on the same socket! 73, Ged.

Go ahead and rebuild with the latest sources in a new directory. None of your existing files will be touched until you do '#make install' and your existing configuration files in .../apache/conf won't be overwritten at all. Of course you have backups anyway, don't you? 73, Ged.
RE: Simple configuration question
Following the example to the T in http://perl.apache.org/guide/install.html#mod_perl_and_apache_ssl_openss, if I add APACHE_PREFIX=/usr/local/apache_ssl it shouldn't even touch anything I have in my original installation at /usr/local/apache. Is this correct? Then I can slowly migrate my configuration file over to the new installation directories?
