Cannot PREFIX/bin/apachectl -k start
I was trying to install apache using the following url

Compiling and Installing - Apache HTTP Server

when I try to start http it prompts me the following error
Code:
oracle@localhost httpd-2.4.4]$ su -c '/usr/local/apache2/bin/apachectl -k start'
Password: 
/usr/local/apache2/bin/httpd:  error while loading shared libraries: libexpat.so.0: cannot open shared  object file: No such file or directory

I did the following to find out whether the file is in the directory or not

Code:
[oracle@localhost httpd-2.4.4]$ ls -lrth  /usr/lib/libexpat.so
lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 17 Apr 26 14:25 /usr/lib/libexpat.so -> libexpat.so.0.5.0

so how should I resolve the above error?

thanks

You shouldn't compile Apache yourself unless you have a specific need for a nonstandard configuration, or want a bugfix that's too new to be in the latest binary release. Using the binary installer and appropriate packages for your distribution tends to avoid these problems.

Please explain what you need.
