125 <p>Esta directiva hace posible mejoras específicas a nivel de sistema operativo
126 y a través del tipo de Protocolo para un socket que escucha.
127 La premisa básica es que el kernel no envíe un socket al servidor
128 hasta que o bien los datos se hayan recibido o bien se haya almacenado
129 en el buffer una Respuesta HTTP completa.
130 Actualmente sólo están soportados
131 <a href="http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=accept_filter&sektion=9">
132 Accept Filters</a> sobre FreeBSD, <code>TCP_DEFER_ACCEPT</code> sobre Linux,
133 y AcceptEx() sobre Windows.</p>
135 <p>El uso de <code>none</code> para un argumento desactiva cualquier filtro
136 aceptado para ese protocolo. Esto es útil para protocolos que requieren que un
137 servidor envíe datos primeros, tales como <code>ftp:</code> o <code>nntp</code>:</p>
138 <div class="example"><p><code>AcceptFilter nntp none</code></p></div>
140 <p>Los nombres de protocolo por defecto son <code>https</code> para el puerto 443
141 y <code>http</code> para todos los demás puertos. Para especificar que se está
142 utilizando otro protocolo con un puerto escuchando, añade el argumento <var>protocol</var>
143 a la directiva <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/mpm_common.html#listen">Listen</a></code>.</p>
145 <p>Sobre FreeBDS los valores por defecto:</p>
146 <div class="example"><p><code>
147 AcceptFilter http httpready <br />
148 AcceptFilter https dataready
151 <p>El filtro <code>httpready</code> almacena en el buffer peticiones HTTP completas
152 a nivel de kernel. Una vez que la petición es recibida, el kernel la envía al servidor.
153 Consulta la página man de
154 <a href="http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=accf_http&sektion=9">
155 accf_http(9)</a> para más detalles. Puesto que las peticiones HTTPS
156 están encriptadas, sólo se utiliza el filtro
157 <a href="http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=accf_data&sektion=9">accf_data(9)</a>.</p>
159 <p>Sobre Linux los valores por defecto son:</p>
160 <div class="example"><p><code>
161 AcceptFilter http data <br />
162 AcceptFilter https data
165 <p>En Linux, <code>TCP_DEFER_ACCEPT</code> no soporta el buffering en peticiones http.
166 Cualquier valor además de <code>none</code> habilitará
167 <code>TCP_DEFER_ACCEPT</code> en ese socket. Para más detalles
168 ver la página man de Linux
169 <a href="http://homepages.cwi.nl/~aeb/linux/man2html/man7/tcp.7.html">
172 <p>Sobre Windows los valores por defecto son:</p>
173 <div class="example"><p><code>
174 AcceptFilter http data <br />
175 AcceptFilter https data
178 <p>Sobre Windows mpm_winnt interpreta el argumento AcceptFilter para conmutar la API
179 AcceptEx(), y no soporta el buffering sobre el protocolo http. Hay dos valores
180 que utilizan la API Windows AcceptEx() y que recuperan sockets de red
181 entre conexciones. <code>data</code> espera hasta que los datos han sido
182 transmitidos como se comentaba anteriormente, y el buffer inicial de datos y las
183 direcciones de red son recuperadas a partir de una única llamada AcceptEx().
184 <code>connect</code> utiliza la API AcceptEx() API, y recupera también
185 las direccciones de red, pero a diferencia de <code>none</code>
186 la opción <code>connect</code> no espera a la transmisión inicial de los datos.</p>
188 <p>Sobre Windows, <code>none</code> prefiere accept() antes que AcceptEx()
189 y no recuperará sockets entre las conexiones. Lo que es útil para los adaptadores de
190 red con un soporte precario de drivers, así como para algunos proveedores de red
191 tales como drivers vpn, o filtros de spam, de virus o de spyware.</p>

212 <p>Esta directiva controla si las peticiones que contienen información sobre la ruta
213 que sigue un fichero que existe (o un fichero que no existe pero en un directorio que
214 sí existe) serán aceptadas o denegadas. La información de ruta puede estar disponible
215 para los scripts en la variable de entorno <code>PATH_INFO</code>.</p>
217 <p>Por ejemplo, asumamos que la ubicación <code>/test/</code> apunta a
218 un directorio que contiene únicamente el fichero
219 <code>here.html</code>. Entonces, las peticiones tanto para
220 <code>/test/here.html/more</code> como para
221 <code>/test/nothere.html/more</code> recogen
222 <code>/more</code> como <code>PATH_INFO</code>.</p>
224 <p>Los tres posibles argumentos para la directiva
225 <code class="directive">AcceptPathInfo</code> son los siguientes:</p>
227 <dt><code>Off</code></dt><dd>Una petición sólo será aceptada si
228 se corresponde con una ruta literal que existe. Por lo tanto, una petición
229 con una información de ruta después del nombre de fichero tal como
230 <code>/test/here.html/more</code> en el ejemplo anterior devolverá
231 un error 404 NOT FOUND.</dd>
233 <dt><code>On</code></dt><dd>Una petición será aceptada si una
234 ruta principal de acceso se corresponde con un fichero que existe. El ejemplo
235 anterior <code>/test/here.html/more</code> será aceptado si
236 <code>/test/here.html</code> corresponde a un fichero válido.</dd>
238 <dt><code>Default</code></dt><dd>La gestión de las peticiones
239 con información de ruta está determinada por el <a href="../handler.html">controlador</a> responsable de la petición.
240 El controlador principal para para ficheros normales rechaza por defecto
241 peticiones <code>PATH_INFO</code>. Los controladores que sirven scripts, tales como <a href="mod_cgi.html">cgi-script</a> e <a href="mod_isapi.html">isapi-handler</a>, normalmente aceptan
242 <code>PATH_INFO</code> por defecto.</dd>
245 <p>El objetivo principal de la directiva <code>AcceptPathInfo</code>
246 es permitirte sobreescribir la opción del controlador
247 de aceptar or rechazar <code>PATH_INFO</code>. Este tipo de sobreescritura se necesita,
248 por ejemplo, cuando utilizas un <a href="../filter.html">filtro</a>, tal como
249 <a href="mod_include.html">INCLUDES</a>, para generar contenido
250 basado en <code>PATH_INFO</code>. El controlador principal normalmente rechazaría
251 la petición, de modo que puedes utilizar la siguiente configuración para habilitarla
254 <div class="example"><p><code>

319 <p>This directive specifies a default value for the media type
320 charset parameter (the name of a character encoding) to be added
321 to a response if and only if the response's content-type is either
322 <code>text/plain</code> or <code>text/html</code>. This should override
323 any charset specified in the body of the response via a <code>META</code>
324 element, though the exact behavior is often dependent on the user's client
325 configuration. A setting of <code>AddDefaultCharset Off</code>
326 disables this functionality. <code>AddDefaultCharset On</code> enables
327 a default charset of <code>iso-8859-1</code>. Any other value is assumed
328 to be the <var>charset</var> to be used, which should be one of the
329 <a href="http://www.iana.org/assignments/character-sets">IANA registered
330 charset values</a> for use in Internet media types (MIME types).
333 <div class="example"><p><code>
334 AddDefaultCharset utf-8
337 <p><code class="directive">AddDefaultCharset</code> should only be used when all
338 of the text resources to which it applies are known to be in that
339 character encoding and it is too inconvenient to label their charset
340 individually. One such example is to add the charset parameter
341 to resources containing generated content, such as legacy CGI
342 scripts, that might be vulnerable to cross-site scripting attacks
343 due to user-provided data being included in the output. Note, however,
344 that a better solution is to just fix (or delete) those scripts, since
345 setting a default charset does not protect users that have enabled
346 the "auto-detect character encoding" feature on their browser.</p>

551 <p>This directive enables the generation of
552 <code>Content-MD5</code> headers as defined in RFC1864
553 respectively RFC2616.</p>
555 <p>MD5 is an algorithm for computing a "message digest"
556 (sometimes called "fingerprint") of arbitrary-length data, with
557 a high degree of confidence that any alterations in the data
558 will be reflected in alterations in the message digest.</p>
560 <p>The <code>Content-MD5</code> header provides an end-to-end
561 message integrity check (MIC) of the entity-body. A proxy or
562 client may check this header for detecting accidental
563 modification of the entity-body in transit. Example header:</p>
565 <div class="example"><p><code>
566 Content-MD5: AuLb7Dp1rqtRtxz2m9kRpA==
569 <p>Note that this can cause performance problems on your server
570 since the message digest is computed on every request (the
571 values are not cached).</p>
573 <p><code>Content-MD5</code> is only sent for documents served
574 by the <code class="module"><a href="../mod/core.html">core</a></code>, and not by any module. For example,
575 SSI documents, output from CGI scripts, and byte range responses

640 <p><code class="directive"><Directory></code> and
641 <code></Directory></code> are used to enclose a group of
642 directives that will apply only to the named directory,
643 sub-directories of that directory, and the files within the respective
644 directories. Any directive that is allowed
645 in a directory context may be used. <var>Directory-path</var> is
646 either the full path to a directory, or a wild-card string using
647 Unix shell-style matching. In a wild-card string, <code>?</code> matches
648 any single character, and <code>*</code> matches any sequences of
649 characters. You may also use <code>[]</code> character ranges. None
650 of the wildcards match a `/' character, so <code><Directory
651 /*/public_html></code> will not match
652 <code>/home/user/public_html</code>, but <code><Directory
653 /home/*/public_html></code> will match. Example:</p>
655 <div class="example"><p><code>
656 <Directory /usr/local/httpd/htdocs><br />
657 <span class="indent">
658 Options Indexes FollowSymLinks<br />
664 <p>Be careful with the <var>directory-path</var> arguments:
665 They have to literally match the filesystem path which Apache httpd uses
666 to access the files. Directives applied to a particular
667 <code><Directory></code> will not apply to files accessed from
668 that same directory via a different path, such as via different symbolic
672 <p><a class="glossarylink" href="../glossary.html#regex" title="ver glosario">Regular
673 expressions</a> can also be used, with the addition of the
674 <code>~</code> character. For example:</p>
676 <div class="example"><p><code>
677 <Directory ~ "^/www/.*/[0-9]{3}">
680 <p>would match directories in <code>/www/</code> that consisted of
683 <p>If multiple (non-regular expression) <code class="directive"><Directory></code> sections
684 match the directory (or one of its parents) containing a document,
685 then the directives are applied in the order of shortest match
686 first, interspersed with the directives from the <a href="#accessfilename">.htaccess</a> files. For example,
689 <div class="example"><p><code>
690 <Directory /><br />
691 <span class="indent">
692 AllowOverride None<br />
694 </Directory><br />
696 <Directory /home/><br />

698 AllowOverride FileInfo<br />
703 <p>for access to the document <code>/home/web/dir/doc.html</code>
707 <li>Apply directive <code>AllowOverride None</code>
708 (disabling <code>.htaccess</code> files).</li>
710 <li>Apply directive <code>AllowOverride FileInfo</code> (for
711 directory <code>/home</code>).</li>
713 <li>Apply any <code>FileInfo</code> directives in
714 <code>/home/.htaccess</code>, <code>/home/web/.htaccess</code> and

718 <p>Regular expressions are not considered until after all of the
719 normal sections have been applied. Then all of the regular
720 expressions are tested in the order they appeared in the

723 <div class="example"><p><code>
724 <Directory ~ abc$><br />
725 <span class="indent">

731 <p>the regular expression section won't be considered until after
732 all normal <code class="directive"><Directory></code>s and
733 <code>.htaccess</code> files have been applied. Then the regular
734 expression will match on <code>/home/abc/public_html/abc</code> and
735 the corresponding <code class="directive"><Directory></code> will
738 <p><strong>Note that the default access for
739 <code><Directory /></code> is <code>Allow from All</code>.

919 memory-mapping if it needs to read the contents of a file during
920 delivery. By default, when the handling of a request requires
921 access to the data within a file -- for example, when delivering a
922 server-parsed file using <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_include.html">mod_include</a></code> -- Apache httpd
923 memory-maps the file if the OS supports it.</p>
925 <p>This memory-mapping sometimes yields a performance improvement.
926 But in some environments, it is better to disable the memory-mapping
927 to prevent operational problems:</p>
930 <li>On some multiprocessor systems, memory-mapping can reduce the
931 performance of the <code class="program"><a href="../programs/httpd.html">httpd</a></code>.</li>
932 <li>Deleting or truncating a file while <code class="program"><a href="../programs/httpd.html">httpd</a></code>

970 <p>This directive controls whether <code class="program"><a href="../programs/httpd.html">httpd</a></code> may use the
971 sendfile support from the kernel to transmit file contents to the client.
972 By default, when the handling of a request requires no access
973 to the data within a file -- for example, when delivering a
974 static file -- Apache httpd uses sendfile to deliver the file contents
975 without ever reading the file if the OS supports it.</p>
977 <p>This sendfile mechanism avoids separate read and send operations,
978 and buffer allocations. But on some platforms or within some
979 filesystems, it is better to disable this feature to avoid
980 operational problems:</p>
983 <li>Some platforms may have broken sendfile support that the build
984 system did not detect, especially if the binaries were built on
985 another box and moved to such a machine with broken sendfile
987 <li>On Linux the use of sendfile triggers TCP-checksum
988 offloading bugs on certain networking cards when using IPv6.</li>
989 <li>On Linux on Itanium, sendfile may be unable to handle files
990 over 2GB in size.</li>
991 <li>With a network-mounted <code class="directive"><a href="#documentroot">DocumentRoot</a></code> (e.g., NFS, SMB, CIFS, FUSE),
992 the kernel may be unable to serve the network file through

1068 <p>In the event of a problem or error, Apache httpd can be configured

1072 <li>output a simple hardcoded error message</li>
1074 <li>output a customized message</li>
1076 <li>redirect to a local <var>URL-path</var> to handle the

1083 <p>The first option is the default, while options 2-4 are
1084 configured using the <code class="directive">ErrorDocument</code>
1085 directive, which is followed by the HTTP response code and a URL
1086 or a message. Apache httpd will sometimes offer additional information
1087 regarding the problem/error.</p>
1089 <p>URLs can begin with a slash (/) for local web-paths (relative
1090 to the <code class="directive"><a href="#documentroot">DocumentRoot</a></code>), or be a
1091 full URL which the client can resolve. Alternatively, a message
1092 can be provided to be displayed by the browser. Examples:</p>
1094 <div class="example"><p><code>
1095 ErrorDocument 500 http://foo.example.com/cgi-bin/tester<br />
1096 ErrorDocument 404 /cgi-bin/bad_urls.pl<br />
1097 ErrorDocument 401 /subscription_info.html<br />
1098 ErrorDocument 403 "Sorry can't allow you access today"
1101 <p>Additionally, the special value <code>default</code> can be used
1102 to specify Apache httpd's simple hardcoded message. While not required
1103 under normal circumstances, <code>default</code> will restore
1104 Apache httpd's simple hardcoded message for configurations that would
1105 otherwise inherit an existing <code class="directive">ErrorDocument</code>.</p>
1107 <div class="example"><p><code>
1108 ErrorDocument 404 /cgi-bin/bad_urls.pl<br /><br />
1109 <Directory /web/docs><br />
1110 <span class="indent">
1111 ErrorDocument 404 default<br />
1116 <p>Note that when you specify an <code class="directive">ErrorDocument</code>
1117 that points to a remote URL (ie. anything with a method such as
1118 <code>http</code> in front of it), Apache HTTP Server will send a redirect to the
1119 client to tell it where to find the document, even if the
1120 document ends up being on the same server. This has several
1121 implications, the most important being that the client will not
1122 receive the original error status code, but instead will
1123 receive a redirect status code. This in turn can confuse web
1124 robots and other clients which try to determine if a URL is
1125 valid using the status code. In addition, if you use a remote
1126 URL in an <code>ErrorDocument 401</code>, the client will not
1127 know to prompt the user for a password since it will not
1128 receive the 401 status code. Therefore, <strong>if you use an
1129 <code>ErrorDocument 401</code> directive then it must refer to a local
1130 document.</strong></p>
1132 <p>Microsoft Internet Explorer (MSIE) will by default ignore
1133 server-generated error messages when they are "too small" and substitute
1134 its own "friendly" error messages. The size threshold varies depending on
1135 the type of error, but in general, if you make your error document
1136 greater than 512 bytes, then MSIE will show the server-generated
1137 error rather than masking it. More information is available in
1138 Microsoft Knowledge Base article <a href="http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;Q294807">Q294807</a>.</p>
1140 <p>Although most error messages can be overriden, there are certain
1141 circumstances where the internal messages are used regardless of the
1142 setting of <code class="directive"><a href="#errordocument">ErrorDocument</a></code>. In
1143 particular, if a malformed request is detected, normal request processing
1144 will be immediately halted and the internal error message returned.

1148 <p>If you are using mod_proxy, you may wish to enable
1149 <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/mod_proxy.html#proxyerroroverride">ProxyErrorOverride</a></code> so that you can provide
1150 custom error messages on behalf of your Origin servers. If you don't enable ProxyErrorOverride,

1247 associated to a request and the log message happens at a time when the
1248 Referer header has already been read from the client. If no output is
1249 produced, the default behaviour is to delete everything from the preceeding
1250 space character to the next space character. This means the log line is
1251 implicitly divided into fields on non-whitespace to whitespace transitions.
1252 If a format string item does not produce output, the whole field is
1253 ommitted. For example, if the remote address <code>%a</code> in the log
1254 format <code>[%t] [%l] [%a] %M </code> is not available, the surrounding
1255 brackets are not logged either. Space characters can be escaped with a
1256 backslash to prevent them from delimiting a field. The combination '% '
1257 (percent space) is a zero-witdh field delimiter that does not produce any
1260 <p>The above behaviour can be changed by adding modifiers to the format
1261 string item. A <code>-</code> (minus) modifier causes a minus to be logged if the
1262 respective item does not produce any output. In once-per-connection/request
1263 formats, it is also possible to use the <code>+</code> (plus) modifier. If an
1264 item with the plus modifier does not produce any output, the whole line is
1267 <p>A number as modifier can be used to assign a log severity level to a
1268 format item. The item will only be logged if the severity of the log
1269 message is not higher than the specified log severity level. The number can
1270 range from 1 (alert) over 4 (warn) and 7 (debug) to 15 (trace8).</p>
1272 <p>Some format string items accept additional parameters in braces.</p>

1630 <p>This directive enables DNS lookups so that host names can be
1631 logged (and passed to CGIs/SSIs in <code>REMOTE_HOST</code>).
1632 The value <code>Double</code> refers to doing double-reverse
1633 DNS lookup. That is, after a reverse lookup is performed, a forward
1634 lookup is then performed on that result. At least one of the IP
1635 addresses in the forward lookup must match the original
1636 address. (In "tcpwrappers" terminology this is called
1637 <code>PARANOID</code>.)</p>
1639 <p>Regardless of the setting, when <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_authz_host.html">mod_authz_host</a></code> is
1640 used for controlling access by hostname, a double reverse lookup
1641 will be performed. This is necessary for security. Note that the
1642 result of this double-reverse isn't generally available unless you
1643 set <code>HostnameLookups Double</code>. For example, if only
1644 <code>HostnameLookups On</code> and a request is made to an object
1645 that is protected by hostname restrictions, regardless of whether
1646 the double-reverse fails or not, CGIs will still be passed the
1647 single-reverse result in <code>REMOTE_HOST</code>.</p>
1649 <p>The default is <code>Off</code> in order to save the network
1650 traffic for those sites that don't truly need the reverse
1651 lookups done. It is also better for the end users because they
1652 don't have to suffer the extra latency that a lookup entails.
1653 Heavily loaded sites should leave this directive
1654 <code>Off</code>, since DNS lookups can take considerable
1655 amounts of time. The utility <code class="program"><a href="../programs/logresolve.html">logresolve</a></code>, compiled by
1656 default to the <code>bin</code> subdirectory of your installation

1840 <p>This directive allows inclusion of other configuration files
1841 from within the server configuration files.</p>
1843 <p>Shell-style (<code>fnmatch()</code>) wildcard characters can be used
1844 in the filename or directory parts of the path to include several files
1845 at once, in alphabetical order. In addition, if
1846 <code class="directive">Include</code> points to a directory, rather than a file,
1847 Apache httpd will read all files in that directory and any subdirectory.
1848 However, including entire directories is not recommended, because it is
1849 easy to accidentally leave temporary files in a directory that can cause
1850 <code class="program"><a href="../programs/httpd.html">httpd</a></code> to fail. Instead, we encourage you to use the
1851 wildcard syntax shown below, to include files that match a particular
1852 pattern, such as *.conf, for example.</p>
1854 <p>When a wildcard is specified for a <strong>file</strong> component of
1855 the path, and no file matches the wildcard, the
1856 <code class="directive"><a href="#include">Include</a></code>
1857 directive will be <strong>silently ignored</strong>. When a wildcard is
1858 specified for a <strong>directory</strong> component of the path, and
1859 no directory matches the wildcard, the
1860 <code class="directive"><a href="#include">Include</a></code> directive will
1861 <strong>fail with an error</strong> saying the directory cannot be found.
1864 <p>For further control over the behaviour of the server when no files or
1865 directories match, prefix the path with the modifiers <var>optional</var>
1866 or <var>strict</var>. If <var>optional</var> is specified, any wildcard
1867 file or directory that does not match will be silently ignored. If
1868 <var>strict</var> is specified, any wildcard file or directory that does
1869 not match at least one file will cause server startup to fail.</p>
1871 <p>When a directory or file component of the path is
1872 specified exactly, and that directory or file does not exist,
1873 <code class="directive"><a href="#include">Include</a></code> directive will fail with an
1874 error saying the file or directory cannot be found.</p>
1876 <p>The file path specified may be an absolute path, or may be relative
1877 to the <code class="directive"><a href="#serverroot">ServerRoot</a></code> directory.</p>
1881 <div class="example"><p><code>
1882 Include /usr/local/apache2/conf/ssl.conf<br />
1883 Include /usr/local/apache2/conf/vhosts/*.conf
1886 <p>Or, providing paths relative to your <code class="directive"><a href="#serverroot">ServerRoot</a></code> directory:</p>
1888 <div class="example"><p><code>
1889 Include conf/ssl.conf<br />
1890 Include conf/vhosts/*.conf
1893 <p>Wildcards may be included in the directory or file portion of the
1894 path. In the following example, the server will fail to load if no
1895 directories match conf/vhosts/*, but will load successfully if no
1896 files match *.conf.</p>
1898 <div class="example"><p><code>
1899 Include conf/vhosts/*/vhost.conf<br />
1900 Include conf/vhosts/*/*.conf
1903 <p>In this example, the server will fail to load if either
1904 conf/vhosts/* matches no directories, or if *.conf matches no files:</p>
1906 <div class="example"><p><code>
1907 Include strict conf/vhosts/*/*.conf

1933 <p>The Keep-Alive extension to HTTP/1.0 and the persistent
1934 connection feature of HTTP/1.1 provide long-lived HTTP sessions
1935 which allow multiple requests to be sent over the same TCP
1936 connection. In some cases this has been shown to result in an
1937 almost 50% speedup in latency times for HTML documents with
1938 many images. To enable Keep-Alive connections, set
1939 <code>KeepAlive On</code>.</p>
1941 <p>For HTTP/1.0 clients, Keep-Alive connections will only be
1942 used if they are specifically requested by a client. In
1943 addition, a Keep-Alive connection with an HTTP/1.0 client can
1944 only be used when the length of the content is known in
1945 advance. This implies that dynamic content such as CGI output,
1946 SSI pages, and server-generated directory listings will
1947 generally not use Keep-Alive connections to HTTP/1.0 clients.
1948 For HTTP/1.1 clients, persistent connections are the default
1949 unless otherwise specified. If the client requests it, chunked
1950 encoding will be used in order to send content of unknown
1951 length over persistent connections.</p>
1953 <p>When a client uses a Keep-Alive connection it will be counted
1954 as a single "request" for the <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/mpm_common.html#maxconnectionsperchild">MaxConnectionsPerChild</a></code> directive, regardless

2012 restrictions that are enclosed in the <code class="directive"><Limit></code> bracket <strong>will have no
2013 effect</strong>. The following example applies the access control

2035 <div class="warning">A <code class="directive"><a href="#limitexcept"><LimitExcept></a></code> section should always be

2046 <div class="warning">When using

2118 redirects the original request to a CGI script. A subrequest is Apache httpd's
2119 mechanism to find out what would happen for some URI if it were requested.
2120 For example, <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_dir.html">mod_dir</a></code> uses subrequests to look for the
2121 files listed in the <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/mod_dir.html#directoryindex">DirectoryIndex</a></code>
2124 <p><code class="directive">LimitInternalRecursion</code> prevents the server
2125 from crashing when entering an infinite loop of internal redirects or
2126 subrequests. Such loops are usually caused by misconfigurations.</p>
2128 <p>The directive stores two different limits, which are evaluated on
2129 per-request basis. The first <var>number</var> is the maximum number of
2130 internal redirects, that may follow each other. The second <var>number</var>
2131 determines, how deep subrequests may be nested. If you specify only one
2132 <var>number</var>, it will be assigned to both limits.</p>

2156 <p>The <code class="directive">LimitRequestBody</code> directive allows
2157 the user to set a limit on the allowed size of an HTTP request
2158 message body within the context in which the directive is given
2159 (server, per-directory, per-file or per-location). If the client
2160 request exceeds that limit, the server will return an error
2161 response instead of servicing the request. The size of a normal
2162 request message body will vary greatly depending on the nature of
2163 the resource and the methods allowed on that resource. CGI scripts
2164 typically use the message body for retrieving form information.

2359 <p>The <code class="directive"><Location></code> directive
2360 limits the scope of the enclosed directives by URL. It is similar to the
2361 <code class="directive"><a href="#directory"><Directory></a></code>
2362 directive, and starts a subsection which is terminated with a
2363 <code></Location></code> directive. <code class="directive"><Location></code> sections are processed in the
2364 order they appear in the configuration file, after the <code class="directive"><a href="#directory"><Directory></a></code> sections and
2365 <code>.htaccess</code> files are read, and after the <code class="directive"><a href="#files"><Files></a></code> sections.</p>
2367 <p><code class="directive"><Location></code> sections operate
2368 completely outside the filesystem. This has several consequences.
2369 Most importantly, <code class="directive"><Location></code>
2370 directives should not be used to control access to filesystem
2371 locations. Since several different URLs may map to the same
2372 filesystem location, such access controls may by circumvented.</p>
2374 <p>The enclosed directives will be applied to the request if the path component
2375 of the URL meets <em>any</em> of the following criteria:
2378 <li>The specified location matches exactly the path component of the URL.
2380 <li>The specified location, which ends in a forward slash, is a prefix
2381 of the path component of the URL (treated as a context root).
2383 <li>The specified location, with the addition of a trailing slash, is a
2384 prefix of the path component of the URL (also treated as a context root).
2388 In the example below, where no trailing slash is used, requests to
2389 /private1, /private1/ and /private1/file.txt will have the enclosed
2390 directives applied, but /private1other would not.
2392 <div class="example"><p><code>
2393 <Location /private1>
2397 In the example below, where a trailing slash is used, requests to
2398 /private2/ and /private2/file.txt will have the enclosed
2399 directives applied, but /private2 and /private2other would not.
2401 <div class="example"><p><code>
2402 <Location /private2<em>/</em>>
2406 <div class="note"><h3>When to use <code class="directive"><Location></code></h3>
2408 <p>Use <code class="directive"><Location></code> to apply
2409 directives to content that lives outside the filesystem. For
2410 content that lives in the filesystem, use <code class="directive"><a href="#directory"><Directory></a></code> and <code class="directive"><a href="#files"><Files></a></code>. An exception is
2411 <code><Location /></code>, which is an easy way to
2412 apply a configuration to the entire server.</p>
2415 <p>For all origin (non-proxy) requests, the URL to be matched is a
2416 URL-path of the form <code>/path/</code>. <em>No scheme, hostname,
2417 port, or query string may be included.</em> For proxy requests, the
2418 URL to be matched is of the form
2419 <code>scheme://servername/path</code>, and you must include the
2422 <p>The URL may use wildcards. In a wild-card string, <code>?</code> matches
2423 any single character, and <code>*</code> matches any sequences of
2424 characters. Neither wildcard character matches a / in the URL-path.</p>
2426 <p><a class="glossarylink" href="../glossary.html#regex" title="ver glosario">Regular expressions</a>
2427 can also be used, with the addition of the <code>~</code>
2428 character. For example:</p>
2430 <div class="example"><p><code>
2431 <Location ~ "/(extra|special)/data">
2434 <p>would match URLs that contained the substring <code>/extra/data</code>
2435 or <code>/special/data</code>. The directive <code class="directive"><a href="#locationmatch"><LocationMatch></a></code> behaves
2436 identical to the regex version of <code class="directive"><Location></code>, and is preferred, for the
2437 simple reason that <code>~</code> is hard to distinguish from
2438 <code>-</code> in many fonts.</p>
2440 <p>The <code class="directive"><Location></code>
2441 functionality is especially useful when combined with the
2442 <code class="directive"><a href="#sethandler">SetHandler</a></code>
2443 directive. For example, to enable status requests, but allow them
2444 only from browsers at <code>example.com</code>, you might use:</p>
2446 <div class="example"><p><code>
2447 <Location /status><br />
2448 <span class="indent">
2449 SetHandler server-status<br />
2450 Require host example.com<br />
2455 <div class="note"><h3>Note about / (slash)</h3>
2456 <p>The slash character has special meaning depending on where in a
2457 URL it appears. People may be used to its behavior in the filesystem
2458 where multiple adjacent slashes are frequently collapsed to a single
2459 slash (<em>i.e.</em>, <code>/home///foo</code> is the same as
2460 <code>/home/foo</code>). In URL-space this is not necessarily true.
2461 The <code class="directive"><a href="#locationmatch"><LocationMatch></a></code>
2462 directive and the regex version of <code class="directive"><Location></code> require you to explicitly specify multiple
2463 slashes if that is your intention.</p>
2465 <p>For example, <code><LocationMatch ^/abc></code> would match
2466 the request URL <code>/abc</code> but not the request URL <code>
2467 //abc</code>. The (non-regex) <code class="directive"><Location></code> directive behaves similarly when used for
2468 proxy requests. But when (non-regex) <code class="directive"><Location></code> is used for non-proxy requests it will
2469 implicitly match multiple slashes with a single slash. For example,
2470 if you specify <code><Location /abc/def></code> and the
2471 request is to <code>/abc//def</code> then it will match.</p>

2666 <p>When a particular level is specified, messages from all
2667 other levels of higher significance will be reported as well.
2668 <em>E.g.</em>, when <code>LogLevel info</code> is specified,
2669 then messages with log levels of <code>notice</code> and
2670 <code>warn</code> will also be posted.</p>
2672 <p>Using a level of at least <code>crit</code> is
2677 <div class="example"><p><code>
2681 <div class="note"><h3>Note</h3>
2682 <p>When logging to a regular file messages of the level
2683 <code>notice</code> cannot be suppressed and thus are always
2684 logged. However, this doesn't apply when logging is done
2685 using <code>syslog</code>.</p>
2688 <p>Specifying a level without a module name will reset the level
2689 for all modules to that level. Specifying a level with a module
2690 name will set the level for that module only. It is possible to
2691 use the module source file name, the module identifier, or the
2692 module identifier with the trailing <code>_module</code> omitted
2693 as module specification. This means the following three specifications
2696 <div class="example"><p><code>
2697 LogLevel info ssl:warn<br />
2698 LogLevel info mod_ssl.c:warn<br />
2699 LogLevel info ssl_module:warn<br />
2702 <p>It is also possible to change the level per directory:</p>
2704 <div class="example"><p><code>
2706 <Directory /usr/local/apache/htdocs/app><br />
2707 LogLevel debug<br />
2712 Per directory loglevel configuration only affects messages that are
2713 logged after the request has been parsed and that are associated with
2714 the request. Log messages which are associated with the connection or
2715 the server are not affected.

2798 <p>The <code class="directive">Mutex</code> directive sets the mechanism,
2799 and optionally the lock file location, that httpd and modules use
2800 to serialize access to resources. Specify <code>default</code> as
2801 the first argument to change the settings for all mutexes; specify
2802 a mutex name (see table below) as the first argument to override
2803 defaults only for that mutex.</p>
2805 <p>The <code class="directive">Mutex</code> directive is typically used in
2806 the following exceptional situations:</p>
2809 <li>change the mutex mechanism when the default mechanism selected
2810 by <a class="glossarylink" href="../glossary.html#apr" title="ver glosario">APR</a> has a functional or performance
2813 <li>change the directory used by file-based mutexes when the
2814 default directory does not support locking</li>
2817 <div class="note"><h3>Supported modules</h3>
2818 <p>This directive only configures mutexes which have been registered
2819 with the core server using the <code>ap_mutex_register()</code> API.
2820 All modules bundled with httpd support the <code class="directive">Mutex</code>
2821 directive, but third-party modules may not. Consult the documentation
2822 of the third-party module, which must indicate the mutex name(s) which
2823 can be configured if this directive is supported.</p>
2826 <p>The following mutex <em>mechanisms</em> are available:</p>
2828 <li><code>default | yes</code>
2829 <p>This selects the default locking implementation, as determined by
2830 <a class="glossarylink" href="../glossary.html#apr" title="ver glosario">APR</a>. The default locking implementation can
2831 be displayed by running <code class="program"><a href="../programs/httpd.html">httpd</a></code> with the
2832 <code>-V</code> option.</p></li>
2834 <li><code>none | no</code>
2835 <p>This effectively disables the mutex, and is only allowed for a
2836 mutex if the module indicates that it is a valid choice. Consult the
2837 module documentation for more information.</p></li>
2839 <li><code>posixsem</code>
2840 <p>This is a mutex variant based on a Posix semaphore.</p>
2842 <div class="warning"><h3>Warning</h3>
2843 <p>The semaphore ownership is not recovered if a thread in the process
2844 holding the mutex segfaults, resulting in a hang of the web server.</p>
2848 <li><code>sysvsem</code>
2849 <p>This is a mutex variant based on a SystemV IPC semaphore.</p>
2851 <div class="warning"><h3>Warning</h3>
2852 <p>It is possible to "leak" SysV semaphores if processes crash
2853 before the semaphore is removed.</p>
2856 <div class="warning"><h3>Security</h3>
2857 <p>The semaphore API allows for a denial of service attack by any
2858 CGIs running under the same uid as the webserver (<em>i.e.</em>,
2859 all CGIs, unless you use something like <code class="program"><a href="../programs/suexec.html">suexec</a></code>
2860 or <code>cgiwrapper</code>).</p>
2864 <li><code>sem</code>
2865 <p>This selects the "best" available semaphore implementation, choosing
2866 between Posix and SystemV IPC semaphores, in that order.</p></li>
2868 <li><code>pthread</code>
2869 <p>This is a mutex variant based on cross-process Posix thread
2872 <div class="warning"><h3>Warning</h3>
2873 <p>On most systems, if a child process terminates abnormally while
2874 holding a mutex that uses this implementation, the server will deadlock
2875 and stop responding to requests. When this occurs, the server will
2876 require a manual restart to recover.</p>
2877 <p>Solaris is a notable exception as it provides a mechanism which
2878 usually allows the mutex to be recovered after a child process
2879 terminates abnormally while holding a mutex.</p>
2880 <p>If your system implements the
2881 <code>pthread_mutexattr_setrobust_np()</code> function, you may be able
2882 to use the <code>pthread</code> option safely.</p>
2886 <li><code>fcntl:/path/to/mutex</code>
2887 <p>This is a mutex variant where a physical (lock-)file and the
2888 <code>fcntl()</code> function are used as the mutex.</p>
2890 <div class="warning"><h3>Warning</h3>
2891 <p>When multiple mutexes based on this mechanism are used within
2892 multi-threaded, multi-process environments, deadlock errors (EDEADLK)
2893 can be reported for valid mutex operations if <code>fcntl()</code>
2894 is not thread-aware, such as on Solaris.</p>
2898 <li><code>flock:/path/to/mutex</code>
2899 <p>This is similar to the <code>fcntl:/path/to/mutex</code> method
2900 with the exception that the <code>flock()</code> function is used to
2901 provide file locking.</p></li>
2903 <li><code>file:/path/to/mutex</code>
2904 <p>This selects the "best" available file locking implementation,
2905 choosing between <code>fcntl</code> and <code>flock</code>, in that
2909 <p>Most mechanisms are only available on selected platforms, where the
2910 underlying platform and <a class="glossarylink" href="../glossary.html#apr" title="ver glosario">APR</a> support it. Mechanisms
2911 which aren't available on all platforms are <em>posixsem</em>,
2912 <em>sysvsem</em>, <em>sem</em>, <em>pthread</em>, <em>fcntl</em>,
2913 <em>flock</em>, and <em>file</em>.</p>
2915 <p>With the file-based mechanisms <em>fcntl</em> and <em>flock</em>,
2916 the path, if provided, is a directory where the lock file will be created.
2917 The default directory is httpd's run-time file directory relative to
2918 <code class="directive"><a href="#serverroot">ServerRoot</a></code>. Always use a local disk
2919 filesystem for <code>/path/to/mutex</code> and never a directory residing
2920 on a NFS- or AFS-filesystem. The basename of the file will be the mutex
2921 type, an optional instance string provided by the module, and unless the
2922 <code>OmitPID</code> keyword is specified, the process id of the httpd
2923 parent process will be appended to to make the file name unique, avoiding
2924 conflicts when multiple httpd instances share a lock file directory. For
2925 example, if the mutex name is <code>mpm-accept</code> and the lock file
2926 directory is <code>/var/httpd/locks</code>, the lock file name for the
2927 httpd instance with parent process id 12345 would be
2928 <code>/var/httpd/locks/mpm-accept.12345</code>.</p>
2930 <div class="warning"><h3>Security</h3>
2931 <p>It is best to <em>avoid</em> putting mutex files in a world-writable
2932 directory such as <code>/var/tmp</code> because someone could create
2933 a denial of service attack and prevent the server from starting by
2934 creating a lockfile with the same name as the one the server will try
2938 <p>The following table documents the names of mutexes used by httpd
2939 and bundled modules.</p>

2993 parent process id from the lock file name.</p>
2995 <p>In the following example, the mutex mechanism for the MPM accept
2996 mutex will be changed from the compiled-in default to <code>fcntl</code>,
2997 with the associated lock file created in directory
2998 <code>/var/httpd/locks</code>. The mutex mechanism for all other mutexes

3018 <p>A single <code class="directive">NameVirtualHost</code> directive
3019 identifies a set of identical virtual hosts on which the server will
3020 further select from on the basis of the <em>hostname</em>
3021 requested by the client. The <code class="directive">NameVirtualHost</code>
3022 directive is a required directive if you want to configure
3023 <a href="../vhosts/">name-based virtual hosts</a>.</p>
3025 <p>This directive, and the corresponding <code class="directive">VirtualHost</code>,
3026 <em>must</em> be qualified with a port number if the server supports both HTTP
3027 and HTTPS connections.</p>
3029 <p>Although <var>addr</var> can be a hostname, it is recommended
3030 that you always use an IP address or a wildcard. A wildcard
3031 NameVirtualHost matches only virtualhosts that also have a literal wildcard
3032 as their argument.</p>
3034 <p>In cases where a firewall or other proxy receives the requests and
3035 forwards them on a different IP address to the server, you must specify the
3036 IP address of the physical interface on the machine which will be
3037 servicing the requests. </p>
3039 <p> In the example below, requests received on interface 192.0.2.1 and port 80
3040 will only select among the first two virtual hosts. Requests received on
3041 port 80 on any other interface will only select among the third and fourth
3042 virtual hosts. In the common case where the interface isn't important
3043 to the mapping, only the "*:80" NameVirtualHost and VirtualHost directives

3426 <p>This directive is used to control how Apache httpd finds the
3427 interpreter used to run CGI scripts. The default setting is
3428 <code>Script</code>. This causes Apache httpd to use the interpreter pointed to
3429 by the shebang line (first line, starting with <code>#!</code>) in the
3430 script. On Win32 systems this line usually looks like:</p>
3432 <div class="example"><p><code>

3442 <p>Setting <code>ScriptInterpreterSource Registry</code> will
3443 cause the Windows Registry tree <code>HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT</code> to be
3444 searched using the script file extension (e.g., <code>.pl</code>) as a
3445 search key. The command defined by the registry subkey
3446 <code>Shell\ExecCGI\Command</code> or, if it does not exist, by the subkey
3447 <code>Shell\Open\Command</code> is used to open the script file. If the
3448 registry keys cannot be found, Apache httpd falls back to the behavior of the
3449 <code>Script</code> option.</p>

3452 <p>Be careful when using <code>ScriptInterpreterSource
3453 Registry</code> with <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/mod_alias.html#scriptalias">ScriptAlias</a></code>'ed directories, because
3454 Apache httpd will try to execute <strong>every</strong> file within this
3455 directory. The <code>Registry</code> setting may cause undesired
3456 program calls on files which are typically not executed. For
3457 example, the default open command on <code>.htm</code> files on
3458 most Windows systems will execute Microsoft Internet Explorer, so
3459 any HTTP request for an <code>.htm</code> file existing within the
3460 script directory would start the browser in the background on the
3461 server. This is a good way to crash your system within a minute or
3465 <p>The option <code>Registry-Strict</code> which is new in Apache HTTP Server
3466 2.0 does the same thing as <code>Registry</code> but uses only the
3467 subkey <code>Shell\ExecCGI\Command</code>. The
3468 <code>ExecCGI</code> key is not a common one. It must be
3469 configured manually in the windows registry and hence prevents
3470 accidental program calls on your system.</p>

3609 port from the incoming request. For optimal reliability and

4018 <p>In many situations Apache httpd must construct a <em>self-referential</em>
4019 URL -- that is, a URL that refers back to the same server. With
4020 <code>UseCanonicalName On</code> Apache httpd will use the hostname and port
4021 specified in the <code class="directive"><a href="#servername">ServerName</a></code>
4022 directive to construct the canonical name for the server. This name
4023 is used in all self-referential URLs, and for the values of
4024 <code>SERVER_NAME</code> and <code>SERVER_PORT</code> in CGIs.</p>
4026 <p>With <code>UseCanonicalName Off</code> Apache httpd will form
4027 self-referential URLs using the hostname and port supplied by
4028 the client if any are supplied (otherwise it will use the
4029 canonical name, as defined above). These values are the same
4030 that are used to implement <a href="../vhosts/name-based.html">name-based virtual hosts</a>,
4031 and are available with the same clients. The CGI variables
4032 <code>SERVER_NAME</code> and <code>SERVER_PORT</code> will be
4033 constructed from the client supplied values as well.</p>
4035 <p>An example where this may be useful is on an intranet server
4036 where you have users connecting to the machine using short
4037 names such as <code>www</code>. You'll notice that if the users
4038 type a shortname, and a URL which is a directory, such as
4039 <code>http://www/splat</code>, <em>without the trailing
4040 slash</em> then Apache httpd will redirect them to
4041 <code>http://www.domain.com/splat/</code>. If you have
4042 authentication enabled, this will cause the user to have to
4043 authenticate twice (once for <code>www</code> and once again
4044 for <code>www.domain.com</code> -- see <a href="http://httpd.apache.org/docs/misc/FAQ.html#prompted-twice">the
4045 FAQ on this subject for more information</a>). But if
4046 <code class="directive">UseCanonicalName</code> is set <code>Off</code>, then
4047 Apache httpd will redirect to <code>http://www/splat/</code>.</p>
4049 <p>There is a third option, <code>UseCanonicalName DNS</code>,
4050 which is intended for use with mass IP-based virtual hosting to
4051 support ancient clients that do not provide a
4052 <code>Host:</code> header. With this option Apache httpd does a
4053 reverse DNS lookup on the server IP address that the client
4054 connected to in order to work out self-referential URLs.</p>
4056 <div class="warning"><h3>Warning</h3>
4057 <p>If CGIs make assumptions about the values of <code>SERVER_NAME</code>
4058 they may be broken by this option. The client is essentially free
4059 to give whatever value they want as a hostname. But if the CGI is
4060 only using <code>SERVER_NAME</code> to construct self-referential URLs
4061 then it should be just fine.</p>

4082 <p>In many situations Apache httpd must construct a <em>self-referential</em>
4083 URL -- that is, a URL that refers back to the same server. With
4084 <code>UseCanonicalPhysicalPort On</code> Apache httpd will, when
4085 constructing the canonical port for the server to honor
4086 the <code class="directive"><a href="#usecanonicalname">UseCanonicalName</a></code> directive,
4087 provide the actual physical port number being used by this request
4088 as a potential port. With <code>UseCanonicalPhysicalPort Off</code>
4089 Apache httpd will not ever use the actual physical port number, instead
4090 relying on all configured information to construct a valid port number.</p>
4092 <div class="note"><h3>Note</h3>

4132 <p><code class="directive"><VirtualHost></code> and
4133 <code></VirtualHost></code> are used to enclose a group of
4134 directives that will apply only to a particular virtual host. Any
4135 directive that is allowed in a virtual host context may be
4136 used. When the server receives a request for a document on a
4137 particular virtual host, it uses the configuration directives
4138 enclosed in the <code class="directive"><VirtualHost></code>
4139 section. <var>Addr</var> can be:</p>
4142 <li>The IP address of the virtual host;</li>
4144 <li>A fully qualified domain name for the IP address of the
4145 virtual host (not recommended);</li>
4147 <li>The character <code>*</code>, which is used only in combination with
4148 <code>NameVirtualHost *</code> to match all IP addresses; or</li>
4150 <li>The string <code>_default_</code>, which is used only
4151 with IP virtual hosting to catch unmatched IP addresses.</li>
4154 <div class="example"><h3>Example</h3><p><code>
4155 <VirtualHost 10.1.2.3><br />
4156 <span class="indent">
4157 ServerAdmin webmaster@host.example.com<br />
4158 DocumentRoot /www/docs/host.example.com<br />

4161 TransferLog logs/host.example.com-access_log<br />
4163 </VirtualHost>
4167 <p>IPv6 addresses must be specified in square brackets because
4168 the optional port number could not be determined otherwise. An
4169 IPv6 example is shown below:</p>
4171 <div class="example"><p><code>
4172 <VirtualHost [2001:db8::a00:20ff:fea7:ccea]><br />
4173 <span class="indent">
4174 ServerAdmin webmaster@host.example.com<br />
4175 DocumentRoot /www/docs/host.example.com<br />
4176 ServerName host.example.com<br />
4177 ErrorLog logs/host.example.com-error_log<br />
4178 TransferLog logs/host.example.com-access_log<br />
4180 </VirtualHost>
4183 <p>Each Virtual Host must correspond to a different IP address,
4184 different port number or a different host name for the server,
4185 in the former case the server machine must be configured to
4186 accept IP packets for multiple addresses. (If the machine does
4187 not have multiple network interfaces, then this can be
4188 accomplished with the <code>ifconfig alias</code> command -- if
4189 your OS supports it).</p>
4191 <div class="note"><h3>Note</h3>
4192 <p>The use of <code class="directive"><VirtualHost></code> does
4193 <strong>not</strong> affect what addresses Apache httpd listens on. You
4194 may need to ensure that Apache httpd is listening on the correct addresses
4195 using <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/mpm_common.html#listen">Listen</a></code>.</p>
4198 <p>When using IP-based virtual hosting, the special name
4199 <code>_default_</code> can be specified in
4200 which case this virtual host will match any IP address that is
4201 not explicitly listed in another virtual host. In the absence
4202 of any <code>_default_</code> virtual host the "main" server config,
4203 consisting of all those definitions outside any VirtualHost
4204 section, is used when no IP-match occurs.</p>
4206 <p>You can specify a <code>:port</code> to change the port that is
4207 matched. If unspecified then it defaults to the same port as the
4208 most recent <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/mpm_common.html#listen">Listen</a></code>
4209 statement of the main server. You may also specify <code>:*</code>
4210 to match all ports on that address. (This is recommended when used
4211 with <code>_default_</code>.)</p>
4213 <p>A <code class="directive"><a href="#servername">ServerName</a></code> should be
4214 specified inside each <code class="directive"><VirtualHost></code> block. If it is absent, the
4215 <code class="directive"><a href="#servername">ServerName</a></code> from the "main"
4216 server configuration will be inherited.</p>
4218 <p>If no matching virtual host is found, then the first listed
4219 virtual host that matches the IP address will be used. As a
4220 consequence, the first listed virtual host is the default virtual

4227 than the user that starts the server.</p>
