Troubleshooting
- Downloaded all dependencies of Apache from HP-UX Porting and Archive Center then install 46 packages one by one with swinstall -s [path]
result → former installed packages become corrupted when other packages are installed
- checked log with suggested command "swjob -a log ~~~"

swjob -a log utgis1-0179 @ utgis1:/

Hi @sjjung 

I understand, you would like to install HPUX apache Webserver.

This can be obtained  from below URL ( you need to login to this portal using HPE passport account )
https://myenterpriselicense.hpe.com/cwp-ui/product-download-info/HPUXWSATW512/5.12/sw_free?& 

Kindly note:  depothelper and/or any product downloading from 'hpux.connect.org.uk' portal  is non-hpe supported product and HPE wouldn't provide any techical support on error/issues on these products.

Regarding swverify error, you could try the below command and check if that fixes.
#swverify -F -x fix=true apr
