I installed a new version of Apache server, I used options like --with-PACKAGE to configure Apache to use a custom path for a package, but Apache is already installed. How can I change the path of a package?

    The standard way of doing this with ./configure is like so:

    ./configure ... --with-PACKAGE=<folder>

    For example:

    ./configure --with-ssl=/usr/local

    If your package has just moved to another location (i.e. it’s no longer in its old location), just restarting Apache will do that. If it doesn’t, inspect the output of ldd:

    ldd /path/to/httpd

    Sometimes /usr/local/lib is not enabled by default for the linker; you can add this to /etc/ld.so.conf or /etc/ld.so.conf.d/ – depending on your preference. Afterwards you have to run lconfig to commit the changes.
