How to Install and Configure the Apache Application Software from the Solaris 8 CD-ROM

The Apache binaries are included in three packages-SUNWapchr, SUNWapchu, and SUNWapchd-which form the SUNWCapache package metacluster. You must install the SUNWapchr package before you install the SUNWapchu package.

Place the Web server binaries on the local file system on each of your cluster nodes or on a cluster file system.

1. Run the pkginfo(1) command to determine if the Apache packages SUNWapchr, SUNWapchu, and SUNWapchd have been installed.

   If not, install as follows.

   # pkgadd -d Solaris 8 Product directory SUNWapchr SUNWapchu SUNWapchd ... Installing Apache Web Server (root) as SUNWapchr ... [ verifying class initd ] /etc/rc0.d/K16apache linked pathname /etc/rc1.d/K16apache linked pathname /etc/rc2.d/K16apache linked pathname /etc/rc3.d/S50apache linked pathname /etc/rcS.d/K16apache linked pathname ...

2. Disable the START and STOP run control scripts that were just installed as part of the SUNWapchr package.

   This step is necessary because the Sun Cluster HA for Apache data service starts and stops the Apache application after you have configured the data service. Perform the following steps.

   1. List the Apache run control scripts.

   2. Rename the Apache run control scripts.

   3. Verify that all the Apache-related scripts have been renamed.

   Note -

   The following example changes the first letter in the name of the run control script from uppercase to lowercase. However, you can rename the scripts to be consistent with your normal administration practices.
