Hi Team,

I have recently compiled apache http server 2.4.53 version with pcre 8.44. 
After successful build I am not able to start instance with below error

error while loading shared libraries: libpcre2-8.so.0: cannot open shared 
object file: No such file or directory

While looked at change log<https://www.apachelounge.com/Changelog-2.4.html> I 
could see below


Upgraded to pcre2 10.39 from pcre1 8.45  
(Changelog<http://www.pcre.org/changelog.txt>)

     For third-party modules (like mod_security) that cannot build

     with pcre2, pcre.dll is in /bin

Does it mean 2.4.53 will work only with PCRE2 modules and no more supporting 
PCRE 8.xx version? We are also compiling mod_security along with 2.4.53, what 
additional steps we need to perform with pcre2.

I would also like to know which file is pointing/referring to libpcre2-8.so.0 
module while starting the instance is it apachectl or httpd.conf?

Appreciate your help/response on this issue.

Thanks.

Regards,
Devendra
