Flagi USE

USE flags for www-servers/apache The Apache Web Server

+suexec-caps Install suexec with capabilities instead of SUID
debug Enable extra debug codepaths, like asserts and extra output. If you want to get meaningful backtraces see https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Project:Quality_Assurance/Backtraces
doc Add extra documentation (API, Javadoc, etc). It is recommended to enable per package instead of globally
gdbm Add support for sys-libs/gdbm (GNU database libraries)
ldap Add LDAP support (Lightweight Directory Access Protocol)
selinux !!internal use only!! Security Enhanced Linux support, this must be set by the selinux profile or breakage will occur
ssl Add support for SSL/TLS connections (Secure Socket Layer / Transport Layer Security)
static Link in apache2 modules statically rather then plugins
suexec Install suexec with apache
suexec-syslog Log suexec to syslog instead of to a separate file
systemd Enable use of systemd-specific libraries and features like socket activation or session tracking
threads Add threads support for various packages. Usually pthreads

Emerge

Multi-Processing Module

To use the Apache event or worker MPM, enable the Apache threads USE flag:

FILE /etc/portage/package.useApache threads support
www-servers/apache threads

To use the Apache event MPM, add the following to make.conf:

FILE /etc/portage/make.confApache event MPM
APACHE2_MPMS="event"

To use the Apache worker MPM, add the following to make.conf:

FILE /etc/portage/make.confApache worker MPM
APACHE2_MPMS="worker"

If no Multi-Processing Module (MPM) is selected, the default MPM is used. The default MPM depends on platform capabilities (like threads support), read more in the official Apache docs.

Then emerge www-servers/apache:

root #emerge --ask www-servers/apache

Globalny support

Enabling the apache2 global USE flag provides support for Apache in other packages. This may cause www-servers/apache to be installed automatically if a package depending on Apache has been emerged.

FILE /etc/portage/make.confAdding Apache to system USE flags
USE="apache2"

After configuring USE variables, update the system so the changes take effect:

root #emerge --ask --changed-use --deep @world

Konfiguracja

Pliki

There are two main files that configure Apache2's behavior on the system:

  • Gentoo's Apache2 init script configuration file /etc/conf.d/apache2
  • Apache2 server's conventional configuration file /etc/apache2/httpd.conf

/etc/conf.d/apache2

The apache2 file located in /etc/conf.d is Gentoo's init script configuration file. The only active line in this file is the APACHE2_OPTS variable line:

FILE /etc/conf.d/apache2
APACHE2_OPTS="-D DEFAULT_VHOST -D INFO -D SSL -D SSL_DEFAULT_VHOST -D LANGUAGE"

This line defines options that will be interpreted by the various configuration files using the <IfDefine option-name> statement to activate or deactivate some part of the whole configuration. This will be returned to later in the article.

/etc/apache2/httpd.conf

The httpd.conf file is Apache server's conventional configuration file. In fact this file is only an entry point for configuration. The whole configuration is split in many files in the /etc/apache2/ directory, that are assembled together using the Include directive. For example, the statement Include /etc/apache2/modules.d/*.conf, in httpd.conf, aims at including all the files in /etc/apache2/modules.d/ which name ends with .conf.

Taking into account what has been said in the subsection above, and as module configuration files (files in /etc/apache2/modules.d) almost always start with the <IfDefine module-name>, the content of one file inside /ect/apache2/modules.d, will ONLY be assembled with the rest of the configuration, if the matching option is set using a -D module-name flag in the APACHE2_OPTS variable in the /etc/conf.d/apache2 file. The 00_default_settings.conf configuration file is an exception to this rule as it doesn't start with an IfDefine statement and therefore is always included in the resulting configuration.

Defaults

After a fresh install of an Apache server, the configuration resulting from the assemblage of the different configuration files is as follows. Start with the entry point /etc/apache2/httpd.conf.

First sign of life

Start the server, as described in the Usage section.

As visible in the initial configuration above, the pre-installed virtual host's DocumentRoot directory is /var/www/localhost/htdocs, its server name is localhost. In addition an index.html file is provided in the DocumentRoot directory, thus to check whether everything is correctly installed or not, point a browser to https://localhost/.

Na stronie powinna widnieć wiadomość "It works!", czyli wszystko działa.

Uwaga
Out of the box, Firefox has a feature designed to help users who mis-typing URLs in the browser bar. If a URL fails to resolve, Firefox tries a couple of alterations of the URL to try find what the user 'might have' really intended, appending a .com or prefixing a www. to the host name portion of the URL to see if they resolve.

This feature, which was introduced in the early versions of Firefox, is somewhat annoying for developers. The feature means that when a server running on localhost fails to respond, Firefox decides to try localhost.com or www.localhost.com. This often resolves to a not found page.

To disable this feature:

  1. Enter about:config in the browser bar
  2. Click "I'll be careful" and enter the special configuration page
  3. Enter browser.fixup.alternate.enabled in the search box that appears
  4. Right click on the browser.fixup.alternate.enabled that appears in the filtered list below and choose toggle to set the value to false.

Enabling mod_security

ModSecurity is a rule-based web application firewall that monitors web service traffic, to block attacks exploiting known vulnerabilities.

Install www-apache/mod_security:

root #emerge --ask www-apache/mod_security

Enable the SECURITY module in the apache2 file's APACHE2_OPTS variable:

FILE /etc/conf.d/apache2Enabling the security module
APACHE2_OPTS="... -D SECURITY"

Control this module by editing /etc/apache2/modules.d/79_modsecurity.conf and /etc/apache2/modules.d/80_modsecurity-crs.conf files. The file /usr/share/doc/mod_security-*/modsecurity.conf-recommended.bz2 contains the recommended configuration https://github.com/SpiderLabs/ModSecurity/wiki/Reference-Manual#A_Recommended_Base_Configuration. Copy the basic configuration to the /etc/apache2/modules.d/79_modsecurity.conf and tweak the settings according to your needs. Unpack the file /usr/share/doc/modsecurity-crs-*/crs-setup.conf.example.bz2 to a suitable location, e.g. /etc/conf.d/crs-setup.conf, tweak it, and include the unpacked file in /etc/apache2/modules.d/80_modsecurity-crs.conf. Finally, restart Apache. Look for the errors in the Apache log files of your sites and act accordingly.

Włączanie supportu PHP

Install PHP with the apache2 USE flag and enable the module:

FILE /etc/conf.d/apache2Enabling the PHP module
APACHE2_OPTS="... -D PHP"

Before testing if the PHP module works, check that the file /etc/apache2/modules.d/70_mod_php.conf exists and contains the following definition:

FILE /etc/apache2/modules.d/70_mod_php.confVerifying the PHP module will be loaded
<IfDefine PHP>
	# The mod_php.so symlink is controlled by
	# eselect-php. However, the module name changed from
	# php5_module to php7_module so we can't blindly load whatever
	# is there. Instead we let eselect-php manage a small
	# configuration file that loads the appropriate module.
	#
	# This is relative to ServerRoot (see httpd.conf).
	Include ../../../var/lib/eselect-php/mod_php.conf
 
	# Tell apache that mod_php should handle PHP files.
	#
	# NOTE: Avoiding AddHandler/AddType for security (bug
	# #538822). Please read the related news item!
	<FilesMatch "\.(php|php[57]|phtml)$">
		SetHandler application/x-httpd-php
	</FilesMatch>
 
	# PHP source files which are meant to be displayed as
	# syntax-highlighted source code.
	<FilesMatch "\.phps$">
		SetHandler application/x-httpd-php-source
	</FilesMatch>
 
	DirectoryIndex index.php index.phtml
</IfDefine>

Jeśli nie istnieje, stwórz go.

By zweryfikować poprawność działania modułów PHP, stwórz stronę testową:

FILE /var/www/localhost/htdocs/index.phpTest PHP
<html>
 <body>
  <?php phpinfo(); ?>
 </body>
</html>

Now, suppress or rename /var/www/localhost/htdocs/index.html and open the test page: https://localhost/

A table describing the PHP settings should be visible.

Modify PHP versions

To change the version of PHP handled by Apache, first list the available versions for the apache2 Server Application Programming Interface (SAPI):

root #eselect php list apache2
 [1]   php5.3
 [2]   php5.4 *
 [3]   php5.5

Change it to the version of choice:

root #eselect php set apache2 N

Substitute N in the example above to the requested number in the output of eselect php list apache2 as displayed earlier on.

Wirtualne hosty

For each virtual host, provide a DocumentRoot directory that is reachable and accessible by the Apache daemon. Add a virtual host configuration file (VirtualHost.conf) in the /etc/apache2/vhosts.d directory which uses this DocumentRoot and the virtual host server name. Do not forget to add an entry for this domain name in /etc/hosts.

To assign the apache user/group ownership on the virtual host files, use chown like in the following example:

root #chown apache:apache /var/www/nazwa_strony

Below are two example virtual host definitions, one for domainname1.com and one for domainname2.com. Notice the different DocumentRoot and ServerName directives even though the host itself (*:80) remains the same:

CODE Example virtual host definitions
<VirtualHost *:80>
    ServerAdmin email@site.com
    DocumentRoot /var/www/website1
    ServerName domainname1.com
</VirtualHost>
  
<VirtualHost *:80>
    ServerAdmin email@site.com
    DocumentRoot /var/www/website2
    ServerName domainname2.com
</VirtualHost>

It is recommended to provide an IP based virtual host definition as well. This allows the administrator to put up a message for users that try to reach a site through its IP address:

CODE IP-based virtual host
<VirtualHost *:80>
    ServerAdmin email@site.com
    DocumentRoot /var/www/html
    ServerName xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
</VirtualHost>

After inserting virtual hosts, the server needs to be (gracefully) restarted for the new sites to become active.

Enabling PHP through fcgid

Install www-apache/mod_fcgid and dev-lang/php. The PHP package requires cgi to be set as a USE flag:

root #emerge --ask www-apache/mod_fcgid dev-lang/php

Edit the mod_fcgid.conf file:

FILE /etc/apache2/modules.d/20_mod_fcgid.conf
<IfDefine FCGID>
LoadModule fcgid_module modules/mod_fcgid.so
SocketPath /var/run/fcgidsock
SharememPath /var/run/fcgid_shm
  
AddHandler php-fcgid .php
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php
Action php-fcgid /fcgid-bin/php-fcgid-wrapper
# max request 128mb
FcgidMaxRequestLen 134217728
<Location /fcgid-bin/>
        SetHandler fcgid-script
        Options +ExecCGI
</Location>
</IfDefine>

Stwórz potrzebny katalog:

root #mkdir /var/www/localhost/htdocs/fcgid-bin

Stwórz symlink dla wrappera PHP:

root #ln -s /usr/bin/php-cgi /var/www/localhost/htdocs/fcgid-bin/php-fcgid-wrapper

Włącz moduł FCGID:

FILE /etc/conf.d/apache2Włączanie modułu FCGID
APACHE2_OPTS="... -D FCGID"

Finally restart Apache and check the phpinfo() site created earlier. The value of Server API should be CGI/FastCGI

Enabling PHP-FPM through mod_proxy_fcgi in Apache 2.4

The following pre-requisites must be satisfied to enable PHP-FPM through mod_proxy_fcgi:

  • >= PHP 5.3
  • >= Apache 2.4

Furthermore, there are a few restrictions on the availability of functionality within Apache 2.4:

The following configuration will only work with Apache 2.4.10 and newer. It relies on the FilesMatch directive and be placed within the main server config or VirtualHosts. The location of the UNIX socket is determined by the listen directive in the php-fpm.conf configuration file, allowing for specifying separate pools per site or function.

In the following example, FilesMatch is placed within the PHP module config file of Apache:

FILE /etc/apache2/modules.d/70_mod_php.confUsing PHP-FPM (recommended for Apache 2.4.10 and newer)
<IfDefine PHP>
        <FilesMatch "\.php$">
                SetHandler "proxy:unix:/var/run/php-fpm/www.sock|fcgi://localhost"
        </FilesMatch>
  
	# Set it to handle the files
	<IfModule mod_mime.c>
		AddHandler application/x-httpd-php .php .php5 .phtml
		AddHandler application/x-httpd-php-source .phps
	</IfModule>
  
	DirectoryIndex index.php index.phtml
 </IfDefine>

Or, you can use ProxPassMatch -- the only option if the Apache version is between 2.4.0 and 2.4.8, inclusive.

FILE /etc/apache2/modules.d/70_mod_php.confUsing PHP-FPM (recommended for Apache 2.4.8 and older)
<IfDefine PHP>
        # Send all requested PHP files to PHP-FPM via fcgi://PHP_FPM_LISTEN_ADDRESS:PHP_FPM_LISTEN_PORT/DOCUMENT_ROOT/$1
        ProxyPassMatch ^/(.*\.php)$ fcgi://127.0.0.1:9000/var/www/localhost/htdocs/$1
  
	# Set it to handle the files
	<IfModule mod_mime.c>
		AddHandler application/x-httpd-php .php .php5 .phtml
		AddHandler application/x-httpd-php-source .phps
	</IfModule>
  
	DirectoryIndex index.php index.phtml
 </IfDefine>

By default the listen directive is not set to a socket. First create the directory for the socket file:

root #mkdir /var/run/php-fpm

Next, update the php-fpm.conf file as follows:

FILE php-fpm.confUpdating listen directive
; Set permissions for unix socket, if one is used. In Linux, read/write
; permissions must be set in order to allow connections from a web server. Many
; BSD-derived systems allow connections regardless of permissions.
; Default Values: user and group are set as the running user
;                 mode is set to 0666
listen.owner = apache
listen.group = apache
;listen.mode = 0666
 
 ; The address on which to accept FastCGI requests.
 ; Valid syntaxes are:
 ;   'ip.add.re.ss:port'    - to listen on a TCP socket to a specific address on
 ;                            a specific port;
 ;   'port'                 - to listen on a TCP socket to all addresses on a
 ;                            specific port;
 ;   '/path/to/unix/socket' - to listen on a unix socket.
 ; Note: This value is mandatory.
 ;listen = 127.0.0.1:9000
listen = /var/run/php-fpm/www.sock

Then enable both the PHP and PROXY modules:

FILE /etc/conf.d/apache2Enabling PHP and proxy modules
APACHE2_OPTS="... -D PHP -D PROXY"

Web frameworks and Apache

Some of the web frameworks that can work with Apache are covered on the wiki:

HTTPS with TLS certificates from Let’s Encrypt

It is important that any public-facing web server provide "secure" HTTPS access. Often, sites providing HTTPS will be configured to redirect HTTP requests to the HTTPS equivalent URL.

Let’s Encrypt is a not-for-profit certificate authority that issues free TLS certificates. certbot is a utility available in the Gentoo repository for easily requesting and installing TLS certificates, and automatically setting up HTTPS access for Apache.

See the Let's Encrypt article for information about using certbot. The EFF also have specific instructions on using certbot on Gentoo to configure Apache.

Usage

Services

OpenRC

Start the Apache server:

root #/etc/init.d/apache2 start

Add Apache to the default runlevel:

root #rc-update add apache2 default

Restart the Apache service:

root #/etc/init.d/apache2 restart

Reload Apache configuration files:

root #/etc/init.d/apache2 reload

Systemd

Start the Apache server:

root #systemctl start apache2

Add Apache to the default runlevel:

root #systemctl enable apache2

Restart the Apache service:

root #systemctl restart apache2

Troubleshooting

Resources

The Apache server can be difficult to configure properly. Below are some resources that may be helpful when issues occur:

Testing

Verifying IP interfaces and ports on which Apache2 is running on and listening to:

root #netstat -tulpen | grep apache
tcp     0     0 0.0.0.0:80      0.0.0.0:*     LISTEN     0     10932720     4544/apache2        
tcp     0     0 0.0.0.0:443     0.0.0.0:*     LISTEN     0     10932716     4544/apache2

Testing if a connection to a Apache server is working on localhost:

user $telnet localhost 80
Trying 127.0.0.1...
Connected to localhost.
Escape character is '^]'.

Interrupt the connection test with Ctrl+c and Enter.

apr_sockaddr_info_get() failed for <System_Hostname>

Error: 

apache2: apr_sockaddr_info_get() failed for System_Hostname

Resolution:

When this occurs, add the host name to the /etc/hosts file:

FILE /etc/hostsAdding a Hostname for Apache
127.0.0.1 localhost System_Hostname
