Why did you use

./configure --with-layout=GNU \
--prefix=/usr/local/apache2.2.3

This confused the pants off me, my first time installing APACHE I didn't use this command. However i'm at this step so far, I had GCC so it went relatively smooth, and make. now i am trying the aforementioned step.

./configure --with-layout=GNU \
--prefix=/usr/local/apache2.2.3

This step is failing on me, it says configure it not a file?

Should I be including my file that apach is in?

root@localhost:/usr/local/apache2.2.3/bin# apachectl start
it outputs:
apachectl: command not found

Everything else to this point has gone very smoothly,so i am a tad bit confused.

You need to use a path to the executable even when you're in that directory (unless your path includes '.'). From the same directory, try:
Code:
./apachectl start

I have PHP and mysql on my computer currently, which files do i put with the server files, if any at all..

And also, do i need a phpmadmin, or can i do all my SQL on shell then transport the DB's to my site?

Anyone know of any tricks, for someone without a DNS name, but with an External domain i own, on a companies server. The trick i want to accomplish is, create, host DB's on my server, but have the server i pay for be my actual mirror into the world.

unless someone knows how to make it work with the server I have.

If so wonderful Thanks for all the help especially to Alar, whom without my apache would still be a tarball.
