compiling applications with Centos
I am evaluating porting solaris (apache, mysql, ssl) servers to Linux. I set up a Centos server to test out apache programs to see how they work out of the box. Now I want to recompile Apache to incorporate the options we used when compiling under Solaris.
I see posts that say never, never compile from source but if I have options that were not compiled in, how can I do that? Also, many of the modules are dynamically loaded which is supposed to result in slower response from httpd. How can I see that my compile time options correspond to the compiled binary that centos provides? Also, some modules I try to install are asking where apxs is, but since I didn't compile it, I don't know.
What is the opinion about compiling?
Thank you
