I know it’s time intense to compile Apache HTTP and it need all dependency libraries on your server.
Compiling on a brand new server can take a long time in installing all the dependencies, libraries and if this is you regularly do then you can reduce the time by creating an RPM.
Here I share with you httpd 2.4.4 rpm, that’s tested on CentOS 6.4x86_64 and I don’t see any reason that won’t work on UNIX system x86_64.
- httpd-2.4.4-1.x86_64.rpm
- mod_ssl-2.4.4-1.x86_64.rpm
httpd-2.4.4-1.x86_64.rpm is a base package, which will install Apache httpd 2.4.4.
mod_ssl-2.4.4-1.x86_64.rpm is mod_ssl.so file, which will be installed under module directory
I uploaded this two rpm on Google Drive for faster download and you can download from the following a link.
Download Apache 2.4.4
Install Apache 2.4.4
# rpm –ivh httpd-2.4.4-1.x86_64.rpm
If you require SSL enabled on your web server, you must install mod_ssl.
#rpm –ivh mod_ssl-2.4.4-1.x86_64.rpm
What and where it will install?
httpd.conf - /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf apachectl - /usr/sbin/apachectl
It will take less than 5 minutes to install Apache HTTPD through RPM.

Hi, installed these rpms on rhel 6 and i got the below error on start. Could you please suggest the best way forward ?
Starting httpd: /usr/sbin/httpd: symbol lookup error: /usr/sbin/httpd: undefined symbol: apr_crypto_init
Looks like something wrong with libapr. Check this http://stackoverflow.com/questions/22048378/undefined-symbol-apr-crypto-init-during-apache-restart
Great idea, as our servers are given to us without the gcc compiler or pcre installed (and we are not allowed root access ), however it would be nice to be able to dictate the install directory for all that is delivered (including the apachectl script) and we dont use /etc for the base dir for any components.
Absolutely Kevin, thanks for visiting.
