Hi there.
We have an old Crux server installation, 2.4 to be exactly running Apache.
Did server as installed by an Ex-employee on an archaic hardware which from time to time crash, so before everything stop working we would like to 'replicate' everything in another server, this time a virtual one.
After some compilation issues we manage to install and configure CRUX but we need to install the same software versions installed in the another server like Apache, version apache 2.2.8-1, the only problem here is that I could not find the package nowhere anymore.
Since all ports are in git since 2006, you can find it here: http://crux.nu/gitweb/?p=ports/opt.git;a=history;f=apache;hb=2.7
In essence I would like to know how to get this version of apache or get a similar one or in what way could I import and export that configuration from my production server to the new one.
Not knowing exactly what you need and the requirements it's hard to be specific in what you should do. I would, however, recommend a fresh install of 2.8 and then run/port your application. I really doubt you would run into any show-stopping bugs by using the latest apache port (2.2.23). I don't really use apache much but 2.2.23 is of the same branch as 2.2.8 and should therefore only contain bugfixes/securityfixes. -- Fredrik Rinnestam
