Carsten, I use the first method you describe. It's always been pretty simple to modify the pathnames before.
I can see how the multiple source trees/build targets would work, but the problem is that some systems would require 4 build targets. I'd like to keep it simple by have just 1 build target, and then configuring it to local needs, if necessary. When I execute the config test, I cd to the bin directory and just give the command # ./apachectl configtest That way there is no doubt as to which apachectl is being executed.

Hi, what do you do exactly ? - Do you build it with configure --prefix=/apps/apache_2.4.48 - make - make install and then copy it to the two target directories ? - Or do you build it two times modifiying the --prefix appropriately ? I would strongly suggest to install it the second way. Or maybe even to have two source tress (unless disk space is a severe issue). Where do you execute the apachectl configtest ?
