Re: [Openvds-devel] The port 80 problem

[Simon Garner]

Hi Chris,

You're right, this does work. Adding a Port 80 directive to each VirtualHost
works (contrary to the Apache manual) and using this and UseCanonicalName On
will make SERVER_PORT = 80.

It doesn't solve the other two problems I discussed though, and the
configuration seems a bit fragile to me -- a user only has to forget the
Port 80 in each virtualhost or to set UseCanonicalName Off (which may be
their desired behaviour) and you'll get problems. So I'll stick with my way
for now.

I think Dave's suggestion for a process capabilities wrapper sounds great,
although I have no idea how to implement that myself.

Regards,

Simon

I've been meaning to submit this for a while, so I guess now is a good
time. Here (attached) is my httpd.conf that is updated for RH7.2 and
apache-1.3.20-16 and freevsd-1.4.9-2. It is preconfigured with the
appropriate Port directive in the virtual hosts. It is also configured
to use mod_watch (mrtg grapher for apache) and webalizer. Either comment
it out or install mod_watch (you won't regret it) and webalizer into
your skel-repo.
