Author Who stole httpd from my bin directory?

Here's an odd one. Just installed download Apache 2.2.0 (first time with
2.2.x but have install 2.xx many times and never had a problem)

../configure --prefix=/usr/local/apache2 \
--enable-so \
--enable-rewrite

However couldn't fire up apache and then realise that the file "httpd" is
missing from:
/usr/local/apache2/bin/

I looked at apachectl shell script and it definitely expects httpd to be in
the above bin directory.

Own up... which one of you buggers stole it because I want it back right
now.

Cheers

Phil

Went through install process adding the extra line below:

../configure --prefix=/usr/local/apache2 \
--enable-so \
--enable-rewrite \
--sbindir=/usr/local/apache2/bin

.... and I am glad to report httpd has decided to make an appearance this
time.

Cheers

I would defeinetely recommend creating, saving, and storing a
config.layout path for your apache installation, it makes configuring a
whole bunch easier once you got one created.

Sorry. Give me root, and I'll put it back.
