How to Compare two easy apache configurations or where I can get info about the conf.yaml parameters

[ITGabs]

Hi,

I am having multiple issues in different configurations behaviors and I am comparing the Yaml of two different configurations.

For example the first one in easyapache with suPHP 5.4.x that I thought was safe, can execute images as php like example.php.jpg and overwriting the php.ini defaults in every different folder

Now I have another after tunning mod_fcgid that improve performance and i am able to define different php.ini for configurations by user outside or inside the /home/ but I am still missing some features of the first configuration.

How I now what do that in the yaml

I am a bit lost with this values for example
Access: 0
Actions: 0
Alias: 0

The ideal will be some documentation about the vars into the Yaml file

Thanks!

being super-fast is not always the thing. i managed to be fast enough and secure using mod_ruid2 + suphp with suExec. you can search the forums and find this easyapache build. i think you will love it more. i switched from fcgi too.

Hello

The value of "0" indicates the Apache module is not enabled in the EasyApache build profile. Here is the example you provided:

Access: 0
Actions: 0
Alias: 0

This indicates that the Access, Actions, and Alias Apache modules are disabled in this profile. You can review a full list of Apache modules at:

List of Apache modules - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

To note, the following thread may be helpful to you if you are attempting to increase the security for suPHP:

Thank you.

Thanks Theoxgr, I know that the setup of mod_fcgid is a bit complex, RAM consuming and not so friendly but the performance, the low CPU usage and the FCGID wrappers are quite flexible and secure exactly what I need.

Thanks Michael, I thought the configuration of that yaml was more cryptic, but now is completely transparent and easy to read, after reading wikipedia a bit and comparing the yaml I can't find some yaml parameters like "bucketeer" but searching in google, I found exactly what I was expecting and pretty well documented

Re: How to Compare two easy apache configurations or where I can get info about the conf.yaml parame

Please keep in mind that some of the entries in the YAML file are actually reverse booleans. A reverse boolean is where 0 means true and 1 means false (whereas we typically have 0 mean false and 1 mean true). An example is the Asis module we provide Apache Module: Asis

Our EasyApache document notes which items are reverse booleans. Usually it's the ones marked as (default) in the table listed at EasyApache: Apache Modules

Good point, I see many (default) in that table, probably the table must include that reverse boolean behavior just to be sure
