Overview
This is the Apache httpd compilation/installation procedure. It implies that httpd is compiled from source. If you plan to install httpd with yum, go directly to yum installation.
Procedure
Download
Download from http://httpd.apache.org/download.cgi and optionally place in the local archive directory.
wget http://mirror.cogentco.com/pub/apache//httpd/httpd-2.4.25.tar.gz
Older releases may not be on mirrors, but they can be downloaded directly from the apache web site: http://archive.apache.org/dist/httpd.
Extract
The sources can be extracted as a non-root user.
cd src gunzip < ../archive/httpd-2.4.25.tar.gz | tar xfv -
