How to reinstall Apache

Question

How do I reinstall Apache?

Answer

1. Access the server's command line as the 'root' user via SSH or "Terminal" in WHM.

2. Remove the existing package.

   RHEL-Based Systems

   # rpm -e --nodeps --justdb ea-apache24

   Ubuntu

   # apt purge ea-apache24*  

   # mv /etc/apache2{,.bak}

3. Reinstall Apache.

   # /usr/local/bin/ea_install_profile --install /etc/cpanel/ea4/profiles/cpanel/default.json

Note: If you have saved a custom profile, you should use /etc/cpanel/ea4/profiles/custom/$profilename.json, where $profilename is the profile's name, instead of /etc/cpanel/ea4/profiles/cpanel/default.json.
