The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Upgrading Apache with RPM

Asked by Fatlog in Apache Web Server

Tags: rpm, upgrade

hi,

i am trying to upgarde Apache. a pervious question i asked informed me that the best way to achieve this is to probably rpm upgarde the package. i've read up a bit on rpm but i'm not yet comfortable with it. i retrieved the file i need and tried to rpm upgrade it but its failing on a few dependencies. i know i can try to blindly upgrade it with -nodeps but i'm not too comfortable dong that. so could someone take me by the hand! and take me through each step. the output from the attempted rpm -upgarde is below...

also. what does the suggested resolution tell me? can i run an up2date on this package?

[root@www user]# rpm --upgrade httpd-2.0.52-3.i386.rpm
