The Apache 1.3.x versions found an unpleasant bug in POSIX signal/errno
handling that is only fixed on 6.0 by MPEKXT3B.  There is no corresponding 5.5
patch, and so therefore Apache 1.3.x will not work reliably on 5.5.

The only HP-supported version of Apache/iX available at the current time is
1.3.4 for 6.0.

Bixby.org still has Apache 1.2.5 available which will run on 5.5, but that
version of Apache is just soooooo old you don't really want to use it for
anything more than limited experimentation.
