<p>Once configured, the server information is obtained by

- <div class="note">
- Note that the configuration files are read by the
- module at run-time, and therefore the display may
- <em>not</em> reflect the running server's active

- was last reloaded. Also, the configuration files must be
- readable by the user as which the server is running (see the
- <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/mpm_common.html#user">User</a></code> directive), or
- else the directive settings will not be listed.
-
- <p>It should also be noted that if

+<h2><a name="limitations" id="limitations">Known Limitations</a></h2>
+ <p><code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_info.html">mod_info</a></code> provides its information by reading the
+ parsed configuration, rather than reading the original configuration
+ file. There are a few limitations as a result of the way the parsed

+ <li>Directives which are executed immediately rather than being
+ stored in the parsed configuration are not listed. These include
+ <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/core.html#serverroot">ServerRoot</a></code>,

+ <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/mod_so.html#loadfile">LoadFile</a></code>.</li>
+ <li>Directives which control the configuration file itself, such as
+ <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/core.html#include">Include</a></code>,
+ <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/core.html#ifmodule"><IfModule></a></code> and
+ <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/core.html#ifdefine"><IfDefine></a></code> are not
+ listed, but the included configuration directives are.</li>
+ <li>Comments are not listed. (This may be considered a feature.)</li>
+ <li>Configuration directives from <code>.htaccess</code> files are
+ not listed (since they do not form part of the permanent server
+ configuration).</li>
+ <li>Container directives such as
+ <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/core.html#directory"><Directory></a></code>
+ are listed normally, but <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_info.html">mod_info</a></code> cannot figure
+ out the line number for the closing
+ <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/core.html#directory"></Directory></a></code>.</li>
