The Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6) provides some performance advantages over IPv4 as well as additional features. On both the Apache and NGINX web servers, IPv6 is enabled by default. However, many users do not take full advantage of all IPv6 capabilities. This guide explains how to configure and use IPv6 on both the Apache and NGINX web server. It also introduces some useful IPv6 tools.
PHP is one of the building blocks of the modern internet. It is a free, open-source scripting language that typically runs on a web server and can be integrated into regular HTML code. PHP is fast, flexible, and can interact with databases, forms, and file systems. This guide provides a brief introduction to PHP and explains how to install, configure, upgrade, and test it.
HTTP/2 is an update to the original Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) specification offering improvements in efficiency and latency. The new version, which adds several useful features, is compatible with browsers that only support HTTP/1. HTTP/2 has many advantages and no significant drawbacks, so upgrading to the new version is recommended. This guide explains how to configure and use HTTP/2 on an Apache server and how to test it is working.
AlmaLinux OS is a stable open-source Linux distribution that provides a new alternative to CentOS. As a downstream fork of the Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) codebase, AlmaLinux guarantees ongoing free availability. CloudLinux experts originally built and designed AlmaLinux, but it is now a community-led project. AlmaLinux supports the same software applications that CentOS does, including the Apache web server. This guide explains how to install, configure, and use Apache on AlmaLinux.
The Apache HTTP Web Server — usually just called Apache — is one of the most widely used open-source web servers. It comes with a long history of success in a wide range of applications. In this guide, you can see how to install Apache on Ubuntu 20.04 and learn how to get started using it.
Bise is a command-line program that generates simple reports about a website’s regular readership size, as a concept distinct from total hits or unique visitors. It uses raw web server access logs as its input data, and bases its output on a number of user-configurable metrics.
The Apache HTTP Web Server (Apache) is an open source web application for deploying web servers. This guide explains how to install and configure an Apache web server on CentOS 8.
mod_fcgid is an Apache module that uses the FastCGI protocol to provide an interface between Apache and Common Gateway Interface (CGI) programs. CGI helps a web server handle dynamic content generation and processing for scripting languages like PHP. This dynamic functionality is commonly used when running content management systems like WordPress on a LAMP stack.

In instances where running the mod_php module to run PHP scripts on Apache is not sufficient, PHP can be run as a CGI binary. Combined with the itk multi-processing module (MPM), PHP scripts can be run as user processes in a per-virtual host setup. This guide will walk users through the process of setting up Apache and PHP CGI.

The WSGI specification provides a standard and efficient method for dynamic web applications to communicate with web servers. mod_wsgi provides a method for simply deploying WSGI applications with Apache. WSGI is used to deploy applications written with frameworks and tools like Django, Web.py, Werkzug, Chery.py, TurboGears, and Flask. This guides outline this installation and configuration process for WSGI with Apache on Ubuntu 12.04.

This tutorial explains how to install and configure the Apache web server on Debian 6 (Squeeze).
In some cases, administrators find that while Apache meets most of their general-purpose web serving needs, other web or application servers are better suited for certain tasks. Fortunately, it’s easy to configure Apache to pass certain requests to other web server processes. These secondary (or tertiary) web servers may be running on the same Linode or separate nodes (perhaps via private networking). Our examples use lighttpd as a secondary web server, but they apply to any web server or application you’d like to proxy HTTP requests to.
This tutorial explains how to install and configure the Apache web server on Fedora 14. All configuration will be done through the terminal; make sure you are logged in as root via SSH. If you have not followed the Setting Up and Securing a Compute Instance guide, it is recommended that you do so prior to beginning this guide. Also note that if you’re looking to install a full LAMP stack, you may want to consider using our LAMP guide for Fedora 14.
This tutorial explains how to install and configure the Apache web server on Ubuntu 10.10 (Maverick). All configuration will be done through the terminal; make sure you are logged in as root via SSH. If you have not followed the Setting Up and Securing a Compute Instance guide, it is recommended that you do so prior to beginning this guide. Also note that if you’re looking to install a full LAMP stack, you may want to consider using our LAMP guide for Ubuntu 10.10.
In most cases, we recommend using the mod_php module to run PHP scripts with the Apache HTTP server. This embeds a PHP interpreter in the web server process and makes running PHP applications easy. The embedded interpreter approach, however, is not without challenges. When the PHP interpreter is embedded in the web server process, PHP scripts are executed by and with the permissions of the web server’s user. In smaller deployments, this is perfectly acceptable, but in larger deployments and operations it can create security risks. While Apache’s itk message passing module (mpm) makes it possible to run Apache processes under user processes in a per-virtual host setup, this is incompatible with the embedded interpreter. The itk module is compatible with PHP running as a CGI process.
In most cases, we recommend using the mod_php module to run PHP scripts with the Apache HTTP server. This embeds a PHP interpreter in the web server process and makes running PHP applications easy. The embedded interpreter approach, however, is not without challenges; it forces all scripts to be executed with the permissions of a shared user account, and is incompatible with some other Apache modules and processes. For example, in our experience mod_php is incompatible with the mod_rails or Phusion Passenger method of running Ruby On Rails. In these cases, if you want to run PHP and Rails applications within a single instance of Apache, you must run PHP scripts as CGI processes, using the method outlined below.
