Apache2 & Openssl
Date: 11/26/06 (Apache) Keywords: browser, html, apache
Ok I have Apache2 and openssl working -- mostly. Apache starts without issue, and when I go to localhost:443 I have a little lock in my address bar. My problem is that files in my 'secure' htdocs folder (as specified in ssl.conf) do not exist, according to apache.
I've never installed a secure server so I may be missing something obvious - any help with this is greatly appreciated.

# SSL Protocol Adjustments:
# The safe and default but still SSL/TLS standard compliant shutdown
# approach is that mod_ssl sends the close notify alert but doesn't wait for
# the close notify alert from client. When you need a different shutdown
# approach you can use one of the following variables:
# o ssl-unclean-shutdown:
# This forces an unclean shutdown when the connection is closed, i.e. no
# SSL close notify alert is send or allowed to received. This violates
# the SSL/TLS standard but is needed for some brain-dead browsers. Use
# this when you receive I/O errors because of the standard approach where
# mod_ssl sends the close notify alert.
# o ssl-accurate-shutdown:
# This forces an accurate shutdown when the connection is closed, i.e. a
# SSL close notify alert is send and mod_ssl waits for the close notify
# alert of the client. This is 100% SSL/TLS standard compliant, but in
# practice often causes hanging connections with brain-dead browsers. Use
# this only for browsers where you know that their SSL implementation
# works correctly.
# Notice: Most problems of broken clients are also related to the HTTP
# keep-alive facility, so you usually additionally want to disable
# keep-alive for those clients, too. Use variable "nokeepalive" for this.
# Similarly, one has to force some clients to use HTTP/1.0 to workaround
# their broken HTTP/1.1 implementation. Use variables "downgrade-1.0" and
# "force-response-1.0" for this.

#
HTTPD.CONF
#
# Based upon the NCSA server configuration files originally by Rob McCool.
#
# This is the main Apache server configuration file. It contains the
# configuration directives that give the server its instructions.
# See
# the directives.
#
# Do NOT simply read the instructions in here without understanding
# what they do. They're here only as hints or reminders. If you are unsure
# consult the online docs. You have been warned.
#
# The configuration directives are grouped into three basic sections:
# 1. Directives that control the operation of the Apache server process as a
# whole (the 'global environment').
# 2. Directives that define the parameters of the 'main' or 'default' server,
# which responds to requests that aren't handled by a virtual host.
# These directives also provide default values for the settings
# of all virtual hosts.
# 3. Settings for virtual hosts, which allow Web requests to be sent to
# different IP addresses or hostnames and have them handled by the
# same Apache server process.
#
# Configuration and logfile names: If the filenames you specify for many
# of the server's control files begin with "/" (or "drive:/" for Win32), the
# server will use that explicit path. If the filenames do *not* begin
# with "/", the value of ServerRoot is prepended -- so "logs/foo.log"
# with ServerRoot set to "C:/Program Files/Apache Group/Apache2" will be interpreted by the
# server as "C:/Program Files/Apache Group/Apache2/logs/foo.log".
#
# NOTE: Where filenames are specified, you must use forward slashes
# instead of backslashes (e.g., "c:/apache" instead of "c:\apache").
# If a drive letter is omitted, the drive on which Apache.exe is located
# will be used by default. It is recommended that you always supply
# an explicit drive letter in absolute paths, however, to avoid
# confusion.
#
### Section 1: Global Environment
#
# The directives in this section affect the overall operation of Apache,
# such as the number of concurrent requests it can handle or where it
# can find its configuration files.
#
#
# ServerRoot: The top of the directory tree under which the server's
# configuration, error, and log files are kept.
#
# NOTE! If you intend to place this on an NFS (or otherwise network)
# mounted filesystem then please read the LockFile documentation (available
# at
# you will save yourself a lot of trouble.
#
# Do NOT add a slash at the end of the directory path.
#
ServerRoot "C:/Program Files/Apache Group/Apache2"
#
# ScoreBoardFile: File used to store internal server process information.
# If unspecified (the default), the scoreboard will be stored in an
# anonymous shared memory segment, and will be unavailable to third-party
# applications.
# If specified, ensure that no two invocations of Apache share the same
# scoreboard file. The scoreboard file MUST BE STORED ON A LOCAL DISK.
#
#ScoreBoardFile logs/apache_runtime_status
#
# PidFile: The file in which the server should record its process
# identification number when it starts.
#
PidFile logs/httpd.pid
#
# Timeout: The number of seconds before receives and sends time out.
#
Timeout 300
#
# KeepAlive: Whether or not to allow persistent connections (more than
# one request per connection). Set to "Off" to deactivate.
#
KeepAlive On
#
# MaxKeepAliveRequests: The maximum number of requests to allow
# during a persistent connection. Set to 0 to allow an unlimited amount.
# We recommend you leave this number high, for maximum performance.
#
MaxKeepAliveRequests 100
#
# KeepAliveTimeout: Number of seconds to wait for the next request from the
# same client on the same connection.
#
KeepAliveTimeout 15
##
## Server-Pool Size Regulation (MPM specific)
##
# WinNT MPM
# ThreadsPerChild: constant number of worker threads in the server process
# MaxRequestsPerChild: maximum number of requests a server process serves
ThreadsPerChild 250
MaxRequestsPerChild 0
#
# Listen: Allows you to bind Apache to specific IP addresses and/or
# ports, instead of the default. See also the
# directive.
#
# Change this to Listen on specific IP addresses as shown below to
# prevent Apache from glomming onto all bound IP addresses (0.0.0.0)

Listen 80
#
# Dynamic Shared Object (DSO) Support
#
# To be able to use the functionality of a module which was built as a DSO you
# have to place corresponding `LoadModule' lines at this location so the
# directives contained in it are actually available _before_ they are used.
# Statically compiled modules (those listed by `httpd -l') do not need
# to be loaded here.

#
#ExtendedStatus On
### Section 2: 'Main' server configuration
#
# The directives in this section set up the values used by the 'main'
# server, which responds to any requests that aren't handled by a
#definition. These values also provide defaults for
# anycontainers you may define later in the file.
#
# All of these directives may appear insidecontainers,
# in which case these default settings will be overridden for the
# virtual host being defined.
#
#
# ServerAdmin: Your address, where problems with the server should be
# e-mailed. This address appears on some server-generated pages, such
# as error documents. e.g. admin@your-domain.com
#
ServerAdmin test@test.com
#
# ServerName gives the name and port that the server uses to identify itself.
# This can often be determined automatically, but we recommend you specify
# it explicitly to prevent problems during startup.
#
# If this is not set to valid DNS name for your host, server-generated
# redirections will not work. See also the UseCanonicalName directive.
#
# If your host doesn't have a registered DNS name, enter its IP address here.
# You will have to access it by its address anyway, and this will make
# redirections work in a sensible way.
#
ServerName localhost:80
#
# UseCanonicalName: Determines how Apache constructs self-referencing
# URLs and the SERVER_NAME and SERVER_PORT variables.
# When set "Off", Apache will use the Hostname and Port supplied
# by the client. When set "On", Apache will use the value of the
# ServerName directive.
#
UseCanonicalName Off
#
# DocumentRoot: The directory out of which you will serve your
# documents. By default, all requests are taken from this directory, but
# symbolic links and aliases may be used to point to other locations.
#
DocumentRoot "C:/Program Files/Apache Group/Apache2/htdocs"
#
# Each directory to which Apache has access can be configured with respect
# to which services and features are allowed and/or disabled in that
# directory (and its subdirectories).
#
# First, we configure the "default" to be a very restrictive set of
# features.
#
Options FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride None

- Email validation & quick Rails vs. PHP
Date: 12/16/06 (PHP Community) Keywords: php, software, database, web, apache
Was playing with the idea of regEx'ing out the domain of an email address and then doing a gethostbyname() to verify that the email address is valid. I know in some cases this won't work, but was curious if anyone has ever tried something similar. Just trying to come up with more validation measures to protect my employeer and their customers from malicious users.
As for Rails VS. PHP
Rail cons
I am on the final stage of deploying a website built in rails and it's been a fun/frustrating learning experience because I've had to build it with a legacy schema that was mangled along the same lines as scope creep (non-standard keys, non-uniform structure (integer keys here, varchar keys there, variables inside join tables, and a lot of orphaned tables forcing the client software to do what the database should be doing [out of query joins or excessive join tables]). For the most part there is a lot of good things about Rails but it's not an end all, be all tool like some people make it out to be. Multi-page/multi-object (ex. user data mixed w/ purchase data) forms are difficult, breaking the rails way of data validation. Debugging has some nice benefits, but is poorly documented and so far I have not found a Rails equivalent to DBG symbolic debugging.... the best appears to be a rails inline assert/breakpoint object that halts the entire system to allow you a glimpse of the system state at that moment but not the ability to step in/out/over.
Lastly there is no mod_perl or mod_php like Apache component so getting Rails on a current server implementation is somewhere between entertaining to unbelievably frustrating. Further more, though rails has a couple different natively supporting webservers (light, webbrick, mongrel) they aren't as well tested or as versatile as Apache. And lastly there is little to no documentation or guidelines, so if you got to do something out of the ordinary, life gets interesting.
Rails pro's
On the plus side, Rails is rich in features, its easier to write C binary packages then PHP, the ActiveRecord & ActiveMailer packages are extremely versatile and thanks to standard Obj. Oriented mantra's, base/parent methods can be supplemented or completely overridden. Otherwise it's a great rapid development platform and practically promotes itself to being used in series with another scripting language if Apache 2.0's mod_proxy or similar httpd proxy service is used. `httdoc/{rails sub-dir/ &| php sub-dir/ & /static content dir}` Prototype and Scriptalicious (spelling) being embedded and wrapped by Rails helpers make Ajax/Web 2.0 stuff a breeze as well. So if you got a simple project on queue and the time to burn stumbling through Rails, I'd recommended checking it out to see if it can compliment and augment your portfolio. Just be prepared to earn your paycheck for the first couple projects. So for speed and minor enhancements to static content, PHP dominates while for complicated, Ajax heavy applications, Rails feels like a good choice.- Apache questions
Date: 12/17/06 (PHP Community) Keywords: php, hosting, apache
I have just changed hosting providers and am having a minor problem with files matching before my mod_rewrite rules get to rewrite.
www.mydomain.com/foobar/stuff
is matching and executing foobar.php and I don't want it to.
I've tried changing DefaultType to text/plain so it wouldn't execute as php.
I've tried turning off ModSpeling in case that had an effect.
Other info: I'm using apache 2.x and php 5.2 as a fast cgi

I do have a DreamHost account, mostly for dabbling around and trying out stuff, and love all their features (and low prices).

But although I've never had any problems so far, hearing every now and then about down times or bad customer service makes me a bit reluctant to recommend them to a client for hosting their small business website.
Opinions, anyone?
Thanks! :-)- Web Development/Design in Linux?
Date: 02/11/07 (WebDesign) Keywords: php, mysql, sql, web, linux, apache
I hate to be a bit obtuse. However, I wanted to gather people's thoughts on using Linux as a web development/design platform.
Are there any users out there that have used Linux and/or Windows in this capacity?
If so, what web dev/design tools for Linux do you find helpful and/or comparable to Windows-based applications (outside of GIMP, Apache, MySQL, LDAP and PHP-Eclipse, of course)?
Finally, if your user requirements for a website gave you the choice of either Mono or PHP, which would you pick and why?
Thanks in advance!

[Cross-Posted to several list] My apologies if you see it multiple times.- PHP webmail / Dreamhost
Date: 02/18/07 (PHP Community) Keywords: php, web, hosting, apache
I have Dreamhost for my mail and hosting package, but I abhore Squirrelmail. So I'm researching other PHP webmail systems that I can install without too much trouble, because I'm not very familiar with installing things from the source.
I loved Horde when I had them on my previous host, so I'm trying to install that. I haven't quite gotten to the install part yet - I'm on the Prerequisites part! I've been starting to install PHP5 (with these and these instructions) and I'm trying to make sure I get all the extra packages downloaded and whatnot before I start with the configure script. But I'm confused at a few things.
1. Dreamhost says they like PHP to run as CGI but the Horde instructions say to configure it with --with=apache or -apxs or -apxs2. Neither of the install steps tutorials have it listed; would something bad happen if I ran it with -apxs?
2. The tutorials also have --without-pear in the configuring, but I think I need it for Horde. Would I need to download additional packages before installing or can I just wait and install it afterwards?
3. The Horde instructions say I need PECL modules but I absolutely cannot get fileinfo to install. It's late and I lost the error message, but since I'm doing everything from scratch, can someone tell me what I should be setting up beforehand and seeing (or not seeing) during installation?
Thanks all.- Stupid Error
Date: 03/15/07 (PHP Community) Keywords: php, mysql, sql, apache
Can someone point out what I am not seeing here?
I am using WAMP (Winblows-Apache-MySQL-PHP) on a server that I am forced to work on. I uncommented the mod_rewrite line in httpd.conf.
From php_info():Loaded Modules core mod_win32 mpm_winnt http_core mod_so mod_php5 mod_actions mod_alias mod_asis
mod_auth_basic mod_authn_default mod_authn_file mod_authz_default mod_authz_groupfile
mod_authz_host mod_authz_user mod_autoindex mod_cgi mod_dir mod_env mod_imagemap
mod_include mod_isapi mod_log_config mod_mime mod_negotiation mod_rewrite mod_setenvif mod_userdir
AllowOverride is set to All by default, which means that the server will indeed look for .htaccess files.
To test, I set up a dummy .htaccess file, which is in the root dir:Options +FollowSymlinks RewriteEngine on RewriteBase / RewriteRule ^page/([A-Za-z-]+)$ /index.php?test=$1 [QSA,L]
And the end result is a 404 error. I've tried every possible combo of rewrite syntax, rules, conditions, etc.
Does anyone have any ideas here?? I've never tried mod_rewrite on winblows, but the OS shouldn't matter as long as I'm running Apache and not IIS.- Tomcat caching .. or?
Date: 03/16/07 (Web Development) Keywords: browser, jsp, apache
Very strange issue. I don't manage the server myself, but can request changes to its configuration.
The server is Apache Tomcat/5.5.9. We usually just write JSP files in Dreamweaver and upload them to the server.
Now here's the issue: Whenever we update a JSP file on the site and then go to view it in the browser, with equal probability we may see the old version of the file or the new one. If we make another change to the file, we may see any of the 3. This isn't a "local" caching issue because if I at the same time try this from another machine on another network, I get the same results.
We have attempted to delete the "cache" folder, but this doesn't generally help.
Any ideas?- Jobs...

Moderator, if this isn't allowed on this forum just let me know.
I get a lot of emails daily for various web dev and programming positions available. I found a good job, but I keep my resume up. Ya never know.
Just feel guilty constantly deleting them when I know someone may need them. Figured I'd at least post them for any coder friends that may be looking for something. I lj-cut it so it wouldn't be too obtrusive.
If these are just found to be crap, let me know and I'll stop passing them on. But some of them at least appear to have potential. They're all fresh over the past 24 hours.
To whoever is currently looking, hope these help! If it's ok, I'll send periodic digests of these if anyone finds them worthwhile.

- "You don't have permission to access.."
Date: 04/25/07 (Apache) Keywords: php, mysql, sql, apache
I'm running Apache 2.2 from wamp (so I have PHP5 and MySQL 5, though I don't think it has anything to do with them) on Windows XP. Anyway.
I can access everything fine using "localhost", and a friend told me that I could access my server by just using my computer's name. So I named my computer "nemo-serv" (all my electrical devices are named after characters from Finding Nemo, my laptop is Nemo,) and then could use nemo-serv fine, just like localhost.
Then I changed something, and I just get a "You don't have permission to access this directory" when using nemo-serv, though localhost is still fine. I really have no idea what I changed that could have done this, but I was hoping you guys would be able to point me in the right direction.
Thanks ^^- Redirecting with mod_rewrite and a map
Date: 05/20/07 (Web Development) Keywords: html, apache
I'm trying to do some redirections using apache mod_rewrite with a map file, and I have it working in part, when in the case where the URL is in the map it should redirect and it currently does that, however I am trying to figure out how to make it do nothing when the URL is NOT in the map and this has not (yet) worked for me.
Here is the basic form of the rewrite configuarions,
RewriteMap vhost txt:/var/www/html/vhost.map
RewriteCond %{HTTP_COOKIE} !^(MY_REDIRECT)
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} (.*.host.org)
RewriteRule . ${vhost:%1} [R,CO=MY_REDIRECT:ZLIO_REDIRECT:host.org:1]

Date: 05/23/07 (PHP Community) Keywords: database, linux, apache
Have all these pdfs on a linux server here at work. They are associated by id numbers in a database. Sometimes the pdfs are assigned a wrong number so I have a script that changes where they are stored and what number they have in the database. Everytime I try to do it though I get an error on rename (which I'm also using to move files). Says permission denied.The files are owned by the "tech" user and the user trying to rename them is "apache". But I the pdfs are set to 777 so I don't understand why it doesn't have permission. Any suggestions?

- Graphical interface for MySQL?
Date: 06/08/07 (MySQL Communtiy) Keywords: php, mysql, sql, web, apache
I have what is probably an easy question, but I've been Googling and don't quite know where to go.
I write and test MySQL queries on a virtual Apache server on my PC before transferring it to the live server on a website. At the moment, I write the MySQL through a command-line interface, which makes it very difficult (almost impossible) to go back and edit the query if I need to change things or have made mistakes. It seems to take much longer to develop things than it should!
At work, I use Teradata SQL and we have a nice graphical interface where we can type in SQL, edit it easily, save SQL to re-use and all those good things. It's much easier to develop in and also easier to copy and paste the query into other files, such as Excel or PHP.
Can anyone recommend a good equivalent program for MySQL?- Development Server on Ubuntu Desktop
Date: 06/10/07 (Webmaster View) Keywords: php, mysql, software, browser, html, database, sql, linux, apache
Last month,I did a clean install of Ubuntu Feisty Fawn on my home computer removing the "dapper drake". But it is only now, I got a chance to sit down and install all necessary packages to set up my development server again.
With Dapper Drake, I had to use alien to convert MySQL5 rpm to .deb, because there was no version 5 in the repositories. Anyway, Feisty has all newest versions of software.
This is what I did for setting up my development server:
For installing MySQL server I ran the command: sudo apt-get install mysql-server. Then I installed the following:
MySQL Administrator: It is a Graphical User Interface for administrating MySQL: sudo apt-get install mysql-admin
MySQL Query Browser is a GUI for managing databases: sudo apt-get install mysql-query-browser
Apache: sudo apt-get install apache2
Apache Manual: sudo apt-get install apache2-doc
PHP: sudo apt-get install php5
PHP module for Apache: sudo apt-get install libapache2-mod-php5
Enabling public_html directories for users
Well, I am the only user in my computer. But I can create and edit files without running sudo if I have a public_html directory at my home. sudo a2enmod userdir. I then restarted Apache and created a 'public_html' directory in my home. Now I can access it with http://localhost/~username/.
Enable mod_rewrite
- sudo a2enmod rewrite.
- Edit Apache configuration: sudo gedit /etc/apache2/sites-available/default
- Change line 12: “AllowOverride none” to “AllowOverride all”
- save and close
- Restart Apache
(Thanks to mod_rewrite for Apache2 in Ubuntu Feisty Fawn 7.04)
How to restart Apache?
sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 force-reload.
Todo:
- Install IEs4Linux.
- Install Opera.
- Install Komodo Edit.
- Install gftp.
