Yay! I got apache upgraded to 2.2 from 2.0. It was a lot easier after I was told by Aaron that Feisty has 2.2 in their apt-get repositories. I just had to update from Dapper to Feisty. Prior to updating I did have to comment out all of the repositories I had added to my /etc/apt/sources.list
. I was running into some broken wgets otherwise.
After commenting out the additional repository lines, I just followed the steps here and viola! apache2.2 comes up.
I did have to reinstall mod_jk for apache2.2 but that was a easy.
And the day is mine.
