Multiple Apache servers on on single Linux box redhat

[s***@gmail.com]

Hi
I need to configure multiple Apache Web Servers on redhat server.
I have copied and extracted Apache 2.2 into redhat server and extracted but not able to install because I don't understand setting prefix. Please let me explain about prefix configuration and how to set it. At the same time I would like to know is it possible to setup 4 Apache Web Servers on same machine if possible then how to.
Can we set up different versions of Apache HTTP Servers?


Thanks

Isn't there a package for Apache 2.2 in the Redhat package
manager? That would be a lot easier to setup.

I have no idea.

That could be done with virtual hosts.
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/vhosts/

The same installation and runtime can serve multiple sites that
way. Although possible, there usually is no need to run seperate
server daemons to run multiple sites.

In principle, that is possible.
You would have to point every instance to its own configuration
files using the -f command line flag.
