changing Apache

Hi can anyone advise me here
I wanted to downgrade Apache/2.4.27 To Apache:2.4.16

I used this code:
cd /usr/local/directadmin/custombuild
echo "apache:2.4.16:" > custom_versions.txt
./build apache

I can see in custom_versions.txt

[root@svr1 custombuild]# cat custom_versions.txt
apache:2.4.16:

but checking httpd -v showing Apache/2.4.27 ???

[root@svr1 ~]# /usr/sbin/httpd -v
Server version: Apache/2.4.27 (Unix)
Server built: Oct 5 2017 01:50:41

even under sys info DA showing Apache 2.4.27 Running

have i missed somthing?? should i have run..

cd /usr/local/directadmin/custombuild
./build apache
./build php n
./build rewrite_confs

any help thanks PSD

Hi, the correct commands should be:

cd /usr/local/directadmin/custombuild
echo "apache2.4:2.4.16:" > custom_versions.txt
./build apache
./build php n
./build rewrite_confs

Hi thanks for the quick reply

I have already run
echo "apache:2.4.16:" > custom_versions.txt
./build apache

should i continue with
./build php n
./build rewrite_confs

or start over

echo "apache2.4:2.4.16:" > custom_versions.txt
./build apache
./build php n
./build rewrite_confs

thanks....Anyone...with a reply...

It must be that Apache fails to build. What are the 10-20 bottom lines of ./build apache command?

hi thanks for reply

Thanks Alex for reply....

./build versions | grep -i apache

[root@svr1 custombuild]# ./build versions | grep -i apache

Latest version of Apache: 2.4.27
Installed version of Apache: 2.4.27

Code:
./build version

[root@svr1 custombuild]# ./build version

That should be


in custom_versions.txt

Then rebuild apache.

apache2.4:2.4.16:

Now apache Stopped Phil

OK, that's the issue. In this case you'd better install the actual Apache version. Or at lease you could try and comment the line:


in /etc/httpd/conf/extra/httpd-phpmodules.conf. Or change the PHP mode to different from the current.

I don't guarantee that it does not break anything.

I'd rather say that you need somebody to fix it for you, as there might other errors occur. The forums is not a live chat and I won't guide you on the matter in a real time manner at these hours.

sorry alex i did not mean to double post, just got in a panic anyhow

I removed
cd /usr/local/directadmin/custombuild
rm -i custom_versions.txt

and ./build apache its back on now.... thank you...ill look on another path for the old site.

Why do you need 2.4.16? What issue do you face? Probably we have a better solution.

after the HDD crash datacentre installed new drive with centos7 lastest updates, one site won't run it comes up with:
Unable to resize photos. Please check file/folder permissions. and dosent load

the old working config for this site was
CONFIG OLD DRIVE
Apache 2.2.31
DirectAdmin 1.51.4
Exim 4.77
MySQL 5.1.65
Named 9.9.5
ProFTPd 1.3.3c
dovecot 2.2.26.0
Php 5.3.29
CentOS 5.11 64-bit
with mod_ruid2

I didnt know you can run mod_ruid2 should with PHP-FPM, just found post
http://forum.directadmin.com/showthread.php?t=55086&highlight=mod_ruid2+with+php-fpm

this may solve ??? thanks again alex...

If you run Apache with mod_php then you need to enable mod_ruid2 in order to solve the issue with permissions.
