Problem Symptoms:
Running into this problem when trying to start apache:

[start]
aleph@server(a20_1):~...apache/bin>./apachectl start
Syntax error on line 41 of /exlibris/aleph/u20_1/alephe/apache/conf/httpd.conf:
API module structure 'aleph_module' in file /exlibris/aleph/a20_1/aleph/exe/mod_aleph_22.so is garbled - expected signature 41503230 but saw 41503232 - perhaps this is not an Apache module DSO, or was compiled for a different Apache version?
./apachectl start: httpd could not be started
[end]

This is a clean Aleph 20 install

Cause:


Resolution:
The output of "httpd -v" on the server is:
Server version: Apache/2.0.61
Server built: Dec 11 2007 15:37:09

The output of "grep mod_aleph $alephe_root/apache/conf/httpd.conf" on the server is:
LoadModule aleph_module /exlibris/aleph/a20_1/aleph/exe/mod_aleph_22.so
<IfModule mod_aleph_22.c>
# <IfModule mod_aleph_2.c>
# <IfModule mod_aleph_2.c>

mod_aleph_2.c is for version 2.0.61 of Apache and mod_aleph_22.c is for version 2.2.15 of Apache.

To correct this change the configuration of httpd.conf to use mod_aleph_2.c.
