removing apache RPM

[Dutch Mafia-boy.]

I want to un-install the apache-1.3.23-11 RPM and install Apache 2 (httpd-2.0.42)....when I go "rpm -e apache"..this is the output I get. I tried to see if I could back them up....but couldn't find them. I just don't want to screw anything up...so what does the following mean and how can I accomplish my objective successfully??


error: removing these packages would break dependencies:
apache is needed by apacheconf-0.8.2-2
webserver is needed by mod_dav-1.0.3-5
webserver is needed by mod_perl-1.26-5
webserver is needed by mod_ssl-2.8.7-4
webserver is needed by webalizer-2.01_10-1

Just rpm -e those aswell.

mod-* packages you list are apache modules, and obviously the other package is associated with apache aswell.

Never tried but couldn't you just upgrade Apache like any other package with rpm -Uvh?

Did you get it to work?
I tried to remove apache yesterday and I couldn´t get it to work.
I hade problem with the mod_pearl. But when searhíng for it I could not find any. I looked in the RH8 install log and saw that I have installed pearl but when searching for it I can still not find it.
I tried rpm -q mod_pearl and rpm -q pearl but can not find any. But still it sais that if httpd is dependent of mod_pearl.

Is there any way to remove the httpd?

That would be mod_perl and not mod_pearl.
