Hi Kaushal,

I think your problem may be that you installed from a 'tar' file and not a RPM.

Did you do a 'rpm -i apache-2.0.45....' or just do a tar xf apache-2.0.45.tar

If you just did the tar, then the RPM database will not be updated to show you have installed the apache package. So when you query for the apache package it will report that it is not installed.

search for all possible .rpms

rpm -qa | grep -i apache

If you installed from source, it won't be listed, but you might have a prior version installed by RPM that may cause you pain in the future.

If you installed Apache 2.x from a RPM package, it will be listed as httpd-x.x.x in the RPM database, rather than apache-x.x.x. The apache-x.x.x RPMs are for the Apache 1.3 branch. An "rpm -qa | grep httpd" will show any Apache 2.x packages installed.
