Hi,

From my understanding Apache run in Prefork by default but in Easyapache I can see that MPM Prefork is uncheck. What mode does Apache actually run if both Prefork and Worker is uncheck here? and what purpose does it do if I check Prefork? I'm confused. Thanks for any answers you can give.

If you do not select any MPMs (such as Prefork or Worker), EasyApache builds with the Prefork MPM.

You do not have to select the option for Prefork in EasyApache. If you select it, it will not change the result of the EasyApache build, UNLESS you also select another MPM.

I am in the process of expanding our documentation on the Apache MPMs, and I will make sure that the default behavior is clear.
