Answer 1

Process of generating RPM from source file: 1) download source file with.gz extention. 2) install rpm-build and rpmdevtools from yum install. (rpmbuild folder will be generated...SPECS,SOURCES,RPMS.. folders will should be generated inside the rpmbuild folder). 3) copy the source code.gz to SOURCES folder.(rpmbuild/SOURCES) 4)Untar the tar ball by using the following command. go to SOURCES folder :rpmbuild/SOURCES where tar file is present. command: e.g tar -xvzf httpd-2.22.tar.gz httpd-2.22 folder will be generated in the same path. Check if apr and apr-util and there in httpd-2.22/srclib folder. If apr and apr-util doesnt exist download latest version from apache site ,untar it and put it inside httpd-2.22/srclib folder. Also make sure you have pcre install in your system .

5)go to extracted folder and then type below command: ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/apache2 --with-included-apr --enable-proxy --enable-proxy-balancer --with-mpm=worker --enable-mods-static=all 6)run below command once the configure is successful: make 7)after successfull execution od make command run: checkinstall in tha same folder. (if you dont have checkinstall software please download latest version from site) Also checkinstall software has bug which can be solved by following way::::: locate checkinstallrc and then replace TRANSLATE = 1 to TRANSLATE=0 using vim command. Also check for exclude package: EXCLUDE="/selinux" 8)checkinstall will ask for option (type R if you want tp build rpm for source file) 9)Done .rpm file will be built in RPMS folder inside rpmbuild/RPMS file... ALL the BEST ....
