Httpd-2.4 rpms for CentOS 6 can be found. These are from the Software Collections that are built to run alongside the base packages. Unfortunately, this collection is only for X8664. The repos in /etc/yum.repos.d do not contain a definition to reach this collection so you will have to create one. Into a file named /etc/yum.repos.d/CentOS-SCL.repo copy the following: SCL name=CentOS-6 - SCL software collections alongside #mirrorlist=baseurl=gpgcheck=1 enabled=1 gpgkey=file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-CentOS-6 I had to comment out the mirrorlist and edit the baseurl because processing of mirrorlist resulted in converting SCL to scl which didn't match any directory on the server.
