  1. I've installed apache2 using apt-get into /etc/apache2.
  2. Later I manually compiled and installed httpd2.4 into /usr/local/apache2/.

I've seen post like: My httpd.conf is empty which says that basically apache2.conf is in current use while httpd.conf is preserved for historic reason.

And before installing httpd, the apache2 works fine.

So my question:

Are Apache2 and httpd the same thing?

  • I think so, but which code did you compile? – rekire Apr 09 '13 at 18:31
  • @rekire httpd2.4 from official site. – gongzhitaao Apr 09 '13 at 18:35
  • The version number also looks like apache. However I would recomment to uninstall the old version and reinstall the self compiled version. Maybe there is some kind of version conflict. – rekire Apr 09 '13 at 18:38
  • in centos or redhat they are httpd services. In ubuntu you will see it as apache2. SImilarly to restart apache in Ubuntu you would say /etc/init.d/apache2 restart while in centos and redhat it will be httpd – Masood Alam Apr 11 '13 at 20:08
