Hello Muduli,

I'm assuming you're talking about Apache 2.4, but it shouldn't really
matter I'd think.

If I understand your question correctly, the default installation directory
for Apache is /usr/local/apache2. Is that what you want to change? If
so, you can change that using configure and passing the --prefix= option
to it, like so:
./configure --prefix=/var/http/domain1.web

I'm thinking this might not be what you're talking about though, because
you use /var/http/abc as an example, not /usr/local/apache2.

Here's a list of the various configuration options. Maybe there's
something there that will help you:
https://httpd.apache.org/docs/current/programs/configure.html

Thanks!

Thanks for the info.

Let me clear the scenario.

For installation of http 2.4:


1. Untar the gz file

2. Compile it with putting the installation dir name. ./configure –prefix=/http/testdomain …etc

3. Then make and make install

If I want to change the /http/testdomain directory should I compile and install it again ? or is there any short way to change the installation dir directly without any compilation ?

Hi,

Any one knows how to modify the installation path in apache http in lunix.

i.e. to change the installation path from /var/http/abc to /var/http/domain1web

Yes, a priori you should be able to:
1. stop old httpd instance,
2. move old httpd instance,
3. rename/replace each reference to "/http/testdomain" in httpd
configuration file(s), that is the main httpd.conf and all possibly
its Include'd files,
4. start new httpd instance.

You should probably backup the files changed in 3. before..

Regards,
Yann.
