[Resolved] A duh! question about Apache

[Norman_Graham]

Hi all

The other day I compiled Apache 2.0.50 (on SuSE Linux 9.0 Pro). My first beginner's error was that I forgot to do --enable-so

I'm assuming this is going to cause me grief when I get to the next stage of compiling and testing PHP5 - like this weekend.

Quick question: can I just rehash the whole thing by doing:

./configure --enable-so
make
make install

Or should I go through some sort of uninstall routine first before trying again? I have searched this forum and also checked through the Apache docs, but I can't find a section entitled: 'You f**ked up! What now?'

Thanks guy and gals

The answer to my question is ... yes! I just reconfigured and experienced no difficulties.

Sorry folks - after years of Windoze, the idea of just recompiling and installing a piece of software that is already there is unsettling, and isn't it great that you can just do this with Linux.
