I am trying to create a tar ball with Apache, Tomcat = and my application to be deployed later on a server with the same kernel as the building machine.

When building Apache HTTP server, there is an option = “—prefix” passed to “configure” script that indicates where will the = result of the build end up.

Does it gets hardcoded into the code? Can I move = later the build server to another directory and just adjust configuration = files?

For example, if I build with = –prefix=3D/myproject/build/http, would it be possible later on to move the location of the HTTP server to = another directory? (E.g. /opt/http)

In other words, do I need to distribute HTTP source = code and build it when I install my application, or can I build it ahead of time = and just configure it at installation time?

Thank you.
