RE: [opensuse] upgrading Apache (Suse 10.0)
Not exactly what you want, but there is apache repository here: <http://software.opensuse.org/download/Apache/> It contains 2.2.x, not 2.0.x though. ~~~~~ Thank you Sunny. Since I'll be upgrading a production server using the older version of Apache, will the upgrade 'break' anything, for example SSL, PHP5, the Apache modules, and will it work the config files, especially the virtual host files? With this big version difference, I'd hate to break something.

James, I'm not an apache expert, so you will need to check the release notes and what have been changed between the versions. I was just running the "old" version, as shipped with 10.0. Nothing fancy, couple of static pages and files. Then I hit a limitation, that before ver. 2.2 apache was not able to serve files bigger than 2G, so I just this repo, upgraded, and was fine. As a common sense - w/o proper testing on a different box I would not advise you to start a production migration. -- Svetoslav Milenov (Sunny) Even the most advanced equipment in the hands of the ignorant is just a pile of scrap. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

james: In order to avoid breaking stuff you should do the following. add this repositories: http://software.opensuse.org/download/Apache/SUSE_Linux_10.0/ http://software.opensuse.org/download/server:/php/server_apache_SuSE_Linux_1... the remove your old PHP installation **completely** ( in case you are using the version included in 10.0 of course) then reinstall apache2-mod_php5 apache2-prefork, the needed PHP modules... ( you may need to upgrade more stuff depending what other software in your system uses libapr* ) and no, you will not break virtual host configuration as it is backward compatible. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
