No, there's nothing wrong when Apache simply says 'It Worked!'.  You have
installed Apache.  The old, lengthy message confused many end users/customers
of the web sites which would upgrade from time to time, and sent them running
to the foundation with a post "HELP!  Apache took over my computer!"

The new message is equally confusing to end users/customers of those web sites,
but at least the customer isn't running here for help.  Perhaps the new message
is a little too terse, but we will never return to reporting that "Apache was
successfully installed" because that's what sent users running to us.

Hi all,
   I just installed apache2.2.0 from source code on my red hat linux
system.  Everything seemed to be ok.  I started apachectl and have an httpd
running on the system.  But, according to 'Apache Essentials' when I point
my browser at http://localhost/ I should get a screen from apache with an
apache logo and a statement saying not to call them about configuration
problems.  I don't.  I get a screen saying 'It works!'.  Is something wrong
with my installation? I did not check the signature on the source code. And I can't find the html scripts for either screen on my system.
