Compiling LAMP from source - apache2 error "no MPM package installed"

I've compiled LAMP from source on a Ubuntu VPS. I had to remove a previously installed version of Apache then I manually compiled all the pack开发者_JAVA技巧ages, which seems to have worked up unto a point - when I try to run commands like "/etc/init.d/apache2 restart" I get the following error - No apache MPM package installed. I have deliberately not used apt-get to install anything and want to avoid this if possible. Anyone know how to resolve this error?

You need to recompile with --with-mpm=<MPM>, see apache documentation
