You have to search path to httpd command. For that purpose you can use command: whereis httpd
Command returns:
httpd: /opt/apache/bin/httpd /opt/apache/man/man8/http you can use httpd command.
/opt/apache/bin/ -v

Server version: Apache/1.3.19(Unix)

paul blue commentr works for me, thanks a lot

you can find the apache version running on linux by typing the following command
httpd -v

root at ***:/usr/local/apache/conf# apache2 -v
server version: apache/2.2.8 (ubuntu)
server built: jun 25 2008 13:54:13

thanks, both great suggestions

thanks

it works to findout version.

the path of the http command depends on your server.

for me it's

cd /usr/bin
./httpd -v

otherwise you can do what estabol recomended.

create a php file named "phpinfo.php" and put the phpinfo(); command in there.

php.about /od/learnphp/p/php_info.htm

i ran "httpd -v" to check the apache version of my linux machine, but it did not work. it showed following:

httpd -v
-bash: httpd: command not found

could you tell me what is wrong and what is the solution?

thank you,

thanks but i want to know where the apache related folder placed and clearly about the execution of the apache server...

regards,

Thanks!

Noticed that this command will work only if you are in the bin directory of apache
eg /XYZ/apache/bin

what distribution are you using. I think command is good for fedora or redhat distributions?

you can also find out by creating a phpinfo.php file and it will show you what apache server version you have on your server:

displayed command not found when executing command"httpd -v"
