.TH apache-modconf 8
.SH NAME
apache-modconf \- reconfigure the Apache webserver modules list
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B apache-modconf
apache | apache-ssl | apache-perl [options]
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
This command is meant to be a simple interface between sysadmins
and apache (in all it's flavours) to administer which modules has to
be loaded or not. It automatically creates a new config file located
in /etc/apache{-perl,-ssl}/modules.conf and it will cleanup httpd.conf
from all the LoadModules entries that are Debian standards without
modifying any custom one. In order for apache-modconf to recognize
a module, this needs to have a correctly formatted .info file
in /usr/lib/apache/1.3/
.PP
.B Note:
apache-modconf obsoletes apacheconfig, apache-sslconfig and
apache-perlconfig
.SH OPTIONS
A summary of options are included below.
.TP
.B enable <module_name>
this will automatically enable the module in the selection list
and ask if the specified flavour of apache should be restarted.
module_name has to match the same as specified in the .info filename.
.PP
Example: apache-modconf apache enable mod_php4
.TP
.B disable <module_name> [quiet]
this will automatically disable the module in the selection list
and ask if the specified flavour of apache should be restarted.
The quite option will not prompt for any selection but it will just
do the work (useful only when called by other scripts).
.PP
Example: apache-modconf apache-ssl disable mod_perl quiet
.PP
.TP
.B query <module_name>
will return a non-empty string if the module is enabled in the
configuration.
.PP
Example: apache-modconf apache-perl query mod_ssl
.PP
.B Note:
use of the quiet options should be done very carefully since
a sysadmin should always be able to verify what has been changed
in the configuration.
.SH NOTES
In order for apache-modconf to be able to recognize a module,
the latter should be provided with an .info file installed
in /usr/lib/apache/1.3. The minimum requirement for a .info
file to be valid is its first line, that should contain
the LoadModule information. Ex:
.PP
LoadModule: urlcount_module /usr/lib/apache/1.3/mod_urlcount.so
.PP
at this point in time no other entries are processed.
.SH AUTHOR
This program and manual page was written by Fabio M. Di Nitto
