Apache 2.0.52 and solaris 9

[sassione]

I have solaris 9 with apache 1.3.27 installed. I need to remove apache 1.3.27 and install apache-2.0.52 so I could install Subversion. I know I need to install apache, openssl, db-4.2, expat,gdbm,libiconv,libxml2 and zlib. Can Any one give me an overview of the steps that I should be taken to accomplish the task.
I am planning to download the apache-2.052-sol9-sparc-local.gz binary from sunfreeware sites.
1-Do need to pkagdd apache and also after I am done, I need to ./configure , ./make and ./make install. or just pkgadd will do the install and the configuration.
2- How do I backup apache 1.3.27, if I need to restore back.
Any help will be appreciated.

Wow ! u know so many things, but the simple pkgadd command..! "I need to install apache, openssl, db-4.2, expat,gdbm,libiconv,libxml2 and zlib."

1. add all d packages u mentioned with pkgadd, nothing more than that.

2. Not necessary to uninstall the existing apache as its on different path.

good luck..

if you are rebuilding from source you dont need pkgadd. after the 'make install', apache will be installed in the --prefix-dir you specified.
