Hello,

I'm looking for dedicated server and Cobalt RaQ3/4 seems very atractive.

I want to add some package like:
mod_perl , fastcgi to apache webserver
mysql
upgrade perl to v5.6

Can I install those software on RaQ without breaking something?

Is there any difference between the package found in cobalt sites like:
http://pkg.nl.cobalt.com/ and ftp://ftp.cobalt.com/pub
to those on the official site like http://www.mysql.com etc ?

Regards,
Rami

I would use the software packages from the cobalt server because these are designed to work with your Raq.

Also if you tried to install a package that was wrong, it would say that it was not designed for your machine so wouldnt mess it up :)

I installed mysql and php, as well as webalizer using the rpm packages and had no problems.

Good luck.

You can get away with compiling whatever you want into apache - just remember not to do a make install with apache. Compile it and copy the new binary over the existing one (which you should back up first just in case).

You mean recompling apache also ?

Dose backup /usr/sbin/httpd is enough ?
