first you are going to have a few unsolvable ( well just very very very very hard to solve) problems
RedHat Enterprise Linux is not really a FREE operating system
you HAVE!!!!!!!! to buy the REQUIRED yearly support contract
and for a server install that is anywhere from $799 ( or $349 entry level) to over $18,000 per YEAR every year
https://www.redhat.com/apps/store/server/
Second
RHEL 5.5 is 5 versions and many years out of date
the current in the older LEGACY RHEL5 is 5.10
with RHEL 6.5 the current operating system
if you do not buy the required support contract , you basically DO NOT install software
HOWEVER
there is a FREE rebuild of the redhat operating system
CentOS 6.5
http://centos.org/
or for OLD legacy hardware and software
the legacy CentOS 5.10
Quote:
Now I want to install and configure the apache server in my rhel 5.5 server.
|
upgrade to the current legacy 5.10 ( or install 6.5 )
or
if you are paying redhat EXTRA cash to lock it at 5.5
contact your redhat 24/7 tech support you are paying for
normally the Apache stack is AUTO installed as part of the normal server install
( see the install cd you have )
so it should already be installed
see the Install guide for the older rhel5
https://access.redhat.com/site/docum...erprise_Linux/
try going to this web address
it is the computer you are sitting in front of
http://localhost:80
for a paid for redhat install that is registered with redhat
and for some odd reason the apache stack was NOT installed ( this would be very odd)
Code:
su -
yum groupinstall " Web Server" "MySQL Database Server"
see the list from this command
