together with the <code>--enable-suexec</code> option to let
APACI accept your request for using the suEXEC feature.</dd>
+ <dt><code>--enable-suexec-capabilities</code></dt>
+
+ <dd><strong>Linux specific:</strong> Normally,
+ the <code>suexec</code> binary is installed "setuid/setgid
+ root", which allows it to run with the full privileges of the
+ root user. If this option is used, the <code>suexec</code>
+ binary will instead be installed with only the setuid/setgid
+ "capability" bits set, which is the subset of full root
+ priviliges required for suexec operation. Note that
+ the <code>suexec</code> binary may not be able to write to a log
+ file in this mode; it is recommended that the
+ <code>--with-suexec-syslog --without-suexec-logfile</code>
+ options are used in conjunction with this mode, so that syslog
+ logging is used instead.</dd>
+
<dt><code>--with-suexec-bin=<em>PATH</em></code></dt>
<dd>The path to the <code>suexec</code> binary must be hard-coded
"<code>suexec_log</code>" and located in your standard logfile
directory (<code>--logfiledir</code>).</dd>
+ <dt><code>--with-suexec-syslog</code></dt>
+
+ <dd>If defined, suexec will log notices and errors to syslog
+ instead of a logfile. This option must be combined
+ with <code>--without-suexec-logfile</code>.</dd>
+
<dt><code>--with-suexec-safepath=<em>PATH</em></code></dt>
<dd>Define a safe PATH environment to pass to CGI
<p>If for example, your web server is configured to run as:</p>
- <pre class="prettyprint lang-config">
-User www
-Group webgroup
- </pre>
+ <pre class="prettyprint lang-config">User www
+Group webgroup</pre>
<p>and <code class="program"><a href="./programs/suexec.html">suexec</a></code> is installed at
<p>The suEXEC wrapper will write log information
to the file defined with the <code>--with-suexec-logfile</code>
- option as indicated above. If you feel you have configured and
- installed the wrapper properly, have a look at this log and the
- error_log for the server to see where you may have gone astray.</p>

+ is used. If you feel you have configured and

+ The output of <code>"suexec -V"</code> will show the options
