Impact
• Size Requirements: 65 - 75MB of disk space is recommended for installing HP
Apache.
• Bundle Requirements:
1. The mod_perl module is pre-enabled in this release and depends on a 64-bit Perl
version 5.6.1 that is included in this Operating Environment and is installed in
/opt/perl_64/bin/perl.
2. Webmin depends on Perl 5 or later and is not specific to either 32 or 64-bit
versions. Webmin expects Perl to be installed in /opt/perl/bin/perl. Refer to
the Webmin Notes located in the /opt/apache/hp_apache_docs directory for
more information.
3. Tomcat and JServ depend on the IPF version of Java 1.3 that is included in this
Operating Environment.
4. Building DSOs using apxs (Apache Extension Tool) depends on Perl which is
included in the HP-UX 11i v1.6 Operating Environment. The expected location
for Perl is /opt/perl/bin/perl. Either use this Perl, or change the path in the
apxs script to the Perl location installed on your machine.
5. Perl and Java details are contained in release notes and can be found after
installing the product in /opt/apache/hp_apache_docs/ or
http://yourserver.com/hp_apache_docs/.
• Installing over previous versions:
Before updating, make sure to stop your previous HP Apache binary by executing:
/opt/apache/bin/apachectl stop
Otherwise, the previous binary will continue running which prevents the new binary
from starting.
By default, swinstall does not reinstall filesets if the same revision already exists
on your system. If you want to reinstall the same revision (for example, if some files
are lost), you can change the installation options by choosing Options/Change
Option.
• Installing a product or a fileset may automatically install dependent filesets
necessary to run the selected items.
• If an HP or non-HP version of Apache is already on the system, swinstall preserves
the existing configuration files under /opt/apache/conf,
/opt/apache/conf/jserv, and /opt/tomcat/conf by renaming
[file]
to
[file].save
.. It also preserves certificates and certificate-related files under
/opt/apache/conf/ssl directories by renaming
[file]
to
[file].save
.. In this
way, you do not lose previous configuration information. However, the original
configuration file (
[file].save
) is over-written if you re-install Apache.
• Upon successful installation, swinstall runs HP Apache automatically.
Compatibility
Modules that were not distributed with HP Apache and user-developed modules for the
previous 32-bit version do not work with this 64-bit release. These modules must be
recompiled as a 64-bit binary to work with this release.
