THE NUMBER ONE HTTP SERVER ON THE INTERNET¶

The Apache HTTP Server Project is an effort to develop and maintain an
open-source HTTP server for modern operating systems including UNIX and Windows.
The goal of this project is to provide a secure, efficient and extensible server
that provides HTTP services in sync with the current HTTP standards.

The Apache HTTP Server ("httpd") was launched in 1995 and it has been the most
popular web server on the Internet since April 1996. It has celebrated its 25th
birthday as a project in February 2020.

The Apache HTTP Server is a project of The Apache Software Foundation.


APACHE HTTPD 2.4.59 RELEASED 2024-04-04¶

The Apache Software Foundation and the Apache HTTP Server Project are pleased to
announce the release of version 2.4.59 of the Apache HTTP Server ("httpd").

This latest release from the 2.4.x stable branch represents the best available
version of Apache HTTP Server.

Apache HTTP Server version 2.4.43 or newer is required in order to operate a TLS
1.3 web server with OpenSSL 1.1.1.

APACHE HTTPD 2.2 END-OF-LIFE 2018-01-01¶

As previously announced, the Apache HTTP Server Project has discontinued all
development and patch review of the 2.2.x series of releases.

The Apache HTTP Server Project had long committed to provide maintenance
releases of the 2.2.x flavor through June of 2017. The final release 2.2.34 was
published in July 2017, and no further evaluation of bug reports or security
risks will be considered or published for 2.2.x releases.
