Question Plesk on CentOS 6 and Apache 2.4

[Nick]

I found a support article from five months ago that stated Plesk wouldn't work on CentOS 6 with Apache 2.4 and was curious if that was still the case? If I'm running Onyx does that make any difference?

Is it safe to upgrade Apache 2.4 from Apache 2.2 on Plesk 12.5?

Yes. It's better and safer to use Apache from OS vendor repository. For CentOS 6 and Onyx I see:
