If you can read this page, it means that the Apache HTTP server installed at this site is working properly. You should <b>replace this file</b> (located at <tt>/var/www/html/index.html</tt>) before continuing to operate your HTTP server. </p> <p> If you are a normal user of this web site and don't know what this page is about, this probably means that the site is currently unavailable due to maintenance. If the problem persists, please contact the site's administrator. </p> </div> <div class="section_header"> <div id="changes"></div> Configuration Overview </div> <div class="content_section_text"> <p> Debian's Apache2 default configuration is different from the upstream default configuration, and split into several files optimized for interaction with Debian tools. The configuration system is <b>fully documented in /usr/share/doc/apache2/README.Debian.gz</b>. Refer to this for the full documentation. Documentation for the web server itself can be found by accessing the <a href="/manual">manual</a> if the <tt>apache2-doc</tt> package was installed on this server. </p> <p> The configuration layout for an Apache2 web server installation on Debian systems is as follows: </p> <pre> /etc/apache2/ |-- apache2.conf | `-- ports.conf |-- mods-enabled | |-- *.load | `-- *.conf |-- conf-enabled | `-- *.conf |-- sites-enabled | `-- *.conf </pre> <ul> <li> <tt>apache2.conf</tt> is the main configuration file. It puts the pieces together by including all remaining configuration files when starting up the web server. </li> <li> <tt>ports.conf</tt> is always included from the main configuration file. It is used to determine the listening ports for incoming connections, and this file can be customized anytime. </li> <li> Configuration files in the <tt>mods-enabled/</tt>, <tt>conf-enabled/</tt> and <tt>sites-enabled/</tt> directories contain particular configuration snippets which manage modules, global configuration fragments, or virtual host configurations, respectively. </li> <li> They are activated by symlinking available configuration files from their respective *-available/ counterparts. These should be managed by using our helpers <tt> a2enmod, a2dismod, </tt> <tt> a2ensite, a2dissite, </tt> and <tt> a2enconf, a2disconf </tt>. See their respective man pages for detailed information. </li> <li> The binary is called apache2. Due to the use of environment variables, in the default configuration, apache2 needs to be started/stopped with <tt>/etc/init.d/apache2</tt> or <tt>apache2ctl</tt>. <b>Calling <tt>/usr/bin/apache2</tt> directly will not work</b> with the default configuration. </li> </ul> </div> <div class="section_header"> <div id="docroot"></div> Document Roots </div> <div class="content_section_text"> <p> By default, Debian does not allow access through the web browser to <em>any</em> file apart of those located in <tt>/var/www</tt>, <a href="http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/mod/mod_userdir.html" rel="nofollow">public_html</a> directories (when enabled) and <tt>/usr/share</tt> (for web applications). If your site is using a web document root located elsewhere (such as in <tt>/srv</tt>) you may need to whitelist your document root directory in <tt>/etc/apache2/apache2.conf</tt>. </p> <p> The default Debian document root is <tt>/var/www/html</tt>. You can make your own virtual hosts under /var/www. This is different to previous releases which provides better security out of the box. </p> </div> <div class="section_header"> <div id="bugs"></div> Reporting Problems </div> <div class="content_section_text"> <p> Please use the <tt>reportbug</tt> tool to report bugs in the Apache2 package with Debian. However, check <a href="http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?ordering=normal;archive=0;src=apache2;repeatmerged=0" rel="nofollow">existing bug reports</a> before reporting a new bug. </p> <p> Please report bugs specific to modules (such as PHP and others) to respective packages, not to the web server itself. </p> </div> </div> </div> <div class="validator"> </div> </body> </html>
