title: Apache httpd setup and installation
body: <p>This is my first time I am trying to install Apache HTTP server locally in my box as a regular user (non-root).</p>
  
  <p>I have downloaded Apache 2.4.1 version of Apache HTTP server [http://httpd.apache.org/download.cgi]. However when I am trying to build and install locally in my box I am getting below error:</p>
  
  <pre><code>httpd/httpd-2.4.1 1059&gt; ./configure
  checking for chosen layout... Apache
  checking for working mkdir -p... yes
  checking for grep that handles long lines and -e... /bin/grep
  checking for egrep... /bin/grep -E
  checking build system type... x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu
  checking host system type... x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu
  checking target system type... x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu
  
  Configuring Apache Portable Runtime library ...
  
  checking for APR... no
  configure: error: APR not found.  Please read the documentation.
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I am not sure what dependency it is looking for - I mean the download package does not contains it? What I need to do to build / deploy Apache HTTP server?</p>
  
  <p>Thanks in advance.</p>
