Hi,

Just got a new server with Redhat 8.0 which as Apache 2.0.40

I need to upgrade to 2.0.43.

Is it difficult to do?

I went to apache's web site, download, compiled, and installed and it 
seemed to go ok, but when I checked to see what version of Apache was 
running it was still 2.0.40. I gather it is because the default 
location for files on the install were different the 2.0.40 install.

I did specify to install in /usr/sbin, which seems to be where Red Hat 
has apache installed.

Obviously I don't expect to get step by step instructions from anyone 
on here about how to upgrade Apache, but I just want to see if I am 
over my head. I am not a hard-core hacker.

Is there a simple way to uninstall the older version?

Matt
