+
+ Apache HTTP Server 1.3.29 freigegeben
+
+ Wir, die Apache Software Foundation und das Apache HTTP Server Projekt,
+ freuen uns, die Freigabe der Version 1.3.29 des Apache HTTP Servers
+ ("Apache") bekannt zu geben. Diese Ankündigung führt die wesentlichen
+ Änderungen von 1.3.29 gegenüber 1.3.28 auf. Die Ankündigung ist auch in
+ englischer Sprache unter http://www.apache.org/dist/httpd/Announcement.txt
+ verfügbar.
+
+ Diese Version des Apache ist vornehmlich ein Bug-Fix- und Sicherheits-
+ Update. Eine kurze Zusammenfassung der Bug-Fixes ist am Ende des Dokumentes
+ aufgeführt. Die vollständige Liste der Änderungen ist in der CHANGES-
+ Datei zu finden. Apache 1.3.29 behebt insbesondere 1 Sicherheitslücke.
+
+ o CAN-2003-0542 (cve.mitre.org)
+ Behebung von Pufferüberläufen in mod_alias und mod_rewrite, welche
+ auftraten, falls reguläre Ausdrücke mit mehr als 9 speichernden
+ Klammernpaaren angewendet wurden.
+
+ Wir betrachten den Apache 1.3.29 als die beste verfügbare Version des
+ Apache 1.3 und wir empfehlen Benutzern älterer Versionen, insbesondere
+ der Familien 1.1.x und 1.2.x, umgehend die Aufrüstung. Für die 1.2.x-
+ Familie werden keine weiteren Releases mehr erstellt.
+
+ Apache 1.3.29 steht unter folgender Adresse zum Download bereit:
+
+ http://httpd.apache.org/download.cgi
+
+ Dieser Service nutzt das Mirror-Netzwerk, welches unter folgender
+ Adresse aufgeführt wird:
+
+ http://www.apache.org/mirrors/
+
+ Eine vollständige Auflistung aller bisherigen Änderungen finden Sie in
+ der Datei CHANGES_1.3.
+
+ Seit Apache 1.3.12 enthalten Binärdistributionen alle Apache-Standard-
+ module als Shared Objects (sofern es von der Plattform unterstützt
+ wird) sowie den kompletten Quelltext. Die Installation kann auf einfache
+ Weise mit dem beigefügten Installationsskript durchgeführt werden.
+ Eine vollständige Erläuterung finden Sie in den Dateien README.bindist
+ und INSTALL.bindist. Beachten Sie bitte, dass die Binärdistributionen
+ auf freiwilliger Basis angeboten werden und aktuelle Distributionen
+ nicht immer für spezielle Plattformen verfügbar sind.
+ Win32-Binärdistributionen basieren auf der Microsoft-Installer-
+ Technologie (.MSI). Obwohl die Entwickler diese Installationsmethode
+ fortlaufend stabilisieren, sollten Fragen dazu an die Newsgroup
+ news:comp.infosystems.www.servers.ms-windows gerichtet werden.
+
+ Eine Übersicht der seit 1.2 eingeführten neuen Features finden Sie unter
+
+ http://httpd.apache.org/docs/new_features_1_3.html
+
+ Ganz allgemein bietet der Apache 1.3 wesentliche Verbesserungen gegenüber
+ der Version 1.2, einschliesslich besserer Performance, Zuverlässigkeit
+ und Unterstützung von mehr Plattformen, darunter Windows NT und 2000 (die
+ unter die Bezeichnung "Win32" fallen), OS2, Netware und Plattformen mit
+ TPF-Thread-Unterstützung.
+
+ Apache ist der am häufigsten verwendete Webserver des bekannten
+ Universums. Mehr als die Hälfte aller Server im Internet laufen mit dem
+ Apache oder einem seiner Derivate.
+
+ WICHTIGER HINWEIS FÜR APACHE-NUTZER: Der Apache 1.3 wurde für
+ Unix-Systeme entwickelt. Obwohl die Portierungen auf nicht-Unix-
+ Plattformen (wie zum Beispiel Win32, Netware oder OS2) von akzeptabler
+ Qualität sind, ist der Apache 1.3 nicht für diese Plattformen optimiert.
+ Sicherheits-, Stabilitäts- und Performanceprobleme zu diesen nicht-Unix-
+ Portierungen betreffen aufgrund der Unix-Herkunft der Software im
+ Allgemeinen nicht die Unix-Version.
+
+ Der Apache 2.0 wurde durch die Einführung der Apache Portability Library
+ und der MPM-Module von Anfang an für mehrere Betriebssysteme konstruiert.
+ Nutzer von nicht-Unix-Plattformen sind dringend angehalten, aufgrund der
+ besseren Performance, Stabilität und Sicherheit auf den Apache 2.0 zu
+ wechseln.
+
+ Wesentliche Änderungen des Apache 1.3.29
+
+ Sicherheitslücken
+
+ o CAN-2003-0542 (cve.mitre.org)
+ Behebung von Pufferüberläufen in mod_alias und mod_rewrite, welche
+ auftraten, falls reguläre Ausdrücke mit mehr als 9 speichernden
+ Klammernpaaren angewendet wurden.
+
+ Neue Features
+
+ Neue Features, die sich auf bestimmte Plattformen beziehen:
+
+ * Die ident-Funktionalität gemäß RFC1413 ist nun sowohl für
+ Windows- wie auch für NetWare-Plattformen verfügbar. Dies
+ beinhaltet auch eine alternative Thread-sichere Implementation der
+ Socket-Timeout-Funktionalität bei der Abfrage des identd-Daemons.
+
+ Behobene Fehler
+
+ Die folgenden nennenswerten Fehler wurden im Apache 1.3.28 (oder
+ früher) gefunden und im Apache 1.3.29 behoben:
+
+ * Innerhalb von ap_bclose() wird nun durchweg ap_pclosesocket() für
+ Sockets und sp_pclosef() für Dateien aufgerufen. Ebenso wird nun
+ einheitlich closesocket() zum Schließen der (Dateideskriptoren von)
+ Sockets verwendet. Das vorherige Durcheinander von Dateideskriptoren
+ für Sockets und Dateien würde bei einigen Applikationen Probleme
+ verursachen, jetzt wo wir vorsorglich Dateideskriptoren schließen,
+ um Lecks zu vermeiden. PR 22805.
+
+ * Korrektur von mod_usertrack, um keine fälschlich zutreffenden
+ Übereinstimmungen mit dem Namen des user-tracking-Cookies zu
+ erhalten. PR 16661.
+
+ * Die Bildung von Subprozess-Zombies bei der Verwendung von CGI-Wrappern
+ wie suEXEC und cgiwrap wird verhindert. PR 21737.

+ <!-- Notes about changes: -->
+ <!-- - If adding a relative link to another part of the -->
+ <!-- documentation, *do* include the ".html" portion. There's a -->
+ <!-- good chance that the user will be reading the documentation -->
+ <!-- on his own system, which may not be configured for -->
+ <!-- multiviews. -->
+ <!-- - When adding items, make sure they're put in the right place -->
+ <!-- - verify that the numbering matches up. -->
+ <!-- - *Don't* use <PRE></PRE> blocks - they don't appear -->
+ <!-- correctly in a reliable way when this is converted to text -->
+ <!-- with Lynx. Use <DL><DD><CODE>xxx<BR>xx</CODE></DD></DL> -->
+ <!-- blocks inside a <P></P> instead. This is necessary to get -->
+ <!-- the horizontal and vertical indenting right. -->
+ <!-- - Don't forget to include an HR tag after the last /P tag -->
+ <!-- but before the /LI in an item. -->
+
+ <p>If you are reading a text-only version of this FAQ, you may
+ find numbers enclosed in brackets (such as "[12]"). These refer
+ to the list of reference URLs to be found at the end of the
+ document. These references do not appear, and are not needed,
+ for the hypertext version.</p>
+
+ <h2>The Questions</h2>
+ <!-- Stuff to Add: -->
+ <!-- - can't bind to port 80 -->
+ <!-- - permission denied -->
+ <!-- - address already in use -->
+ <!-- - mod_auth & passwd lines "user:pw:.*" - ++1st colon onward is -->
+ <!-- treated as pw, not just ++1st to \-\-2nd. -->
+ <!-- - SSL: -->
+ <!-- - Can I use Apache-SSL for free in Canada? -->
+ <!-- - Why can't I use Apache-SSL in the U.S.? -->
+ <!-- - How can I found out how many visitors my site gets? -->
+ <!-- - How do I add a counter? -->
+ <!-- - How do I configure Apache as a proxy? -->
+ <!-- - What browsers support HTTP/1.1? -->
+ <!-- - What's the point of vhosts-by-name is there aren't any -->
+ <!-- HTTP/1.1 browsers? -->
+ <!-- - Is there an Apache for W95/WNT? -->
+ <!-- - Why does Apache die when a vhost can't be DNS-resolved? -->
+ <!-- - Why do I get "send lost connection" messages in my error -->
+ <!-- log? -->
+ <!-- - specifically consider .pdf files which seem to cause this -->
+ <!-- a lot when accessed via the plugin ... and also mention -->
+ <!-- how range-requests can cause bytes served < file size -->
+ <!-- - Why do directory indexes appear as garbage? (A: -lucb) -->
+ <!-- - How do I add a footer to all pages offered by my server? -->
+ <!-- - Fix midi question; a bigger problem than midi vs. x-midi is -->
+ <!-- the simple fact that older versions of Apache (and new ones -->
+ <!-- that have been upgraded without upgrading the mime.types -->
+ <!-- file) don't have the type listed at all. -->
+ <!-- - RewriteRule /~fraggle/* /cgi-bin/fraggle.pl does not work -->
+ <!-- - how do I disable authentication for a subdirectory? -->
+ <!-- (A: you can't but "Satisfy any; Allow from all" can be close -->
+ <!-- - '400 malformed request' on Win32 might mean stale proxy; see -->
+ <!-- PR #2300. -->
+ <!-- - how do I tell what version of Apache I am running? -->

+ <h3>A. Background</h3>
+
+ <ol>
+ <li>
+ <a id="what" name="what"><strong>What is
+ Apache?</strong></a>
+
+ <p>The Apache httpd server</p>
+
+ <ul>
+ <li>is a powerful, flexible, HTTP/1.1 compliant web
+ server</li>
+
+ <li>implements the latest protocols, including HTTP/1.1
+ (RFC2616)</li>
+
+ <li>is highly configurable and extensible with
+ third-party modules</li>
+
+ <li>can be customised by writing 'modules' using the
+ Apache module API</li>
+
+ <li>provides full source code and comes with an
+ unrestrictive license</li>
+
+ <li>runs on Windows NT/9x, Netware 5.x and above, OS/2, and most
+ versions of Unix, as well as several other operating
+ systems</li>
+
+ <li>is actively being developed</li>
+
+ <li>encourages user feedback through new ideas, bug
+ reports and patches</li>
+
+ <li>
+ implements many frequently requested features,
+ including:<br />
+ <br />
+
+
+ <dl>
+ <dt>DBM databases for authentication</dt>
+
+ <dd>allows you to easily set up password-protected
+ pages with enormous numbers of authorized users,
+ without bogging down the server.</dd>
+
+ <dt>Customized responses to errors and problems</dt>
+
+ <dd>Allows you to set up files, or even CGI scripts,
+ which are returned by the server in response to
+ errors and problems, e.g. setup a script to intercept
+ <strong>500 Server Error</strong>s and perform
+ on-the-fly diagnostics for both users and
+ yourself.</dd>
+
+ <dt>Multiple DirectoryIndex directives</dt>
+
+ <dd>Allows you to say <code>DirectoryIndex index.html
+ index.cgi</code>, which instructs the server to
+ either send back <code>index.html</code> or run
+ <code>index.cgi</code> when a directory URL is
+ requested, whichever it finds in the directory.</dd>
+
+ <dt>Unlimited flexible URL rewriting and
+ aliasing</dt>
+
+ <dd>Apache has no fixed limit on the numbers of
+ Aliases and Redirects which may be declared in the
+ config files. In addition, a powerful rewriting
+ engine can be used to solve most URL manipulation
+ problems.</dd>
+
+ <dt>Content negotiation</dt>
+
+ <dd>i.e. the ability to automatically serve clients
+ of varying sophistication and HTML level compliance,
+ with documents which offer the best representation of
+ information that the client is capable of
+ accepting.</dd>
+
+ <dt>Virtual Hosts</dt>
+
+ <dd>A much requested feature, sometimes known as
+ multi-homed servers. This allows the server to
+ distinguish between requests made to different IP
+ addresses or names (mapped to the same machine).
+ Apache also offers dynamically configurable
+ mass-virtual hosting.</dd>
+
+ <dt>Configurable Reliable Piped Logs</dt>
+
+ <dd>You can configure Apache to generate logs in the
+ format that you want. In addition, on most Unix
+ architectures, Apache can send log files to a pipe,
+ allowing for log rotation, hit filtering, real-time
+ splitting of multiple vhosts into separate logs, and
+ asynchronous DNS resolving on the fly.</dd>

+ <a id="why" name="why"><strong>How and why was Apache
+ created?</strong></a>
+
+ <p>The <a
+ href="http://httpd.apache.org/ABOUT_APACHE.html">About
+ Apache</a> document explains how the Apache project evolved
+ from its beginnings as an outgrowth of the NCSA httpd
+ project to its current status as one of the fastest, most
+ efficient, and most functional web servers in
+ existence.</p>
+ <hr />
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <a id="name" name="name"><strong>Why the name
+ "Apache"?</strong></a>
+
+ <p>The name 'Apache' was chosen from respect for
+ the Native American Indian tribe of Apache (Ind&eacute;),
+ <a href="http://www.indians.org/welker/apache.htm">well-known
+ for their superior skills in warfare strategy and their
+ inexhaustible endurance</a>. For more information on the
+ Apache Nation, we suggest searching
+ <a href="http://www.google.com/search?q=Apache+Nation">Google</a>,
+ <a href="http://www.northernlight.com/nlquery.fcg?qr=Apache+Nation"
+ >Northernlight</a>, or
+ <a href="http://www.alltheweb.com/cgi-bin/asearch?query=Apache+Nation"
+ >AllTheWeb</a>.</p>
+
+ <p>Secondarily, and more popularly (though incorrectly) accepted,
+ it's a considered cute name which stuck. Apache is "<strong>A
+ PA</strong>t<strong>CH</strong>y server". It was based on
+ some existing code and a series of "patch files".</p>
+
+ <hr />
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <a id="compare" name="compare"><strong>OK, so how does
+ Apache compare to other servers?</strong></a>
+
+ <p>For an independent assessment, see <a
+ href="http://webcompare.internet.com/">Web
+ Compare</a>.</p>
+
+ <p>Apache has been shown to be substantially faster, more
+ stable, and more feature-full than many other web servers.
+ Although certain commercial servers have claimed to surpass
+ Apache's speed (it has not been demonstrated that any of
+ these "benchmarks" are a good way of measuring WWW server
+ speed at any rate), we feel that it is better to have a
+ mostly-fast free server than an extremely-fast server that
+ costs thousands of dollars. Apache is run on sites that get
+ millions of hits per day, and they have experienced no
+ performance difficulties.</p>
+ <hr />
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <a id="tested" name="tested"><strong>How thoroughly tested
+ is Apache?</strong></a>
+
+ <p>Apache is run on over 6 million Internet servers (as of
+ February 2000). It has been tested thoroughly by both
+ developers and users. The Apache Group maintains rigorous
+ standards before releasing new versions of their server,
+ and our server runs without a hitch on over one half of all
+ WWW servers available on the Internet. When bugs do show
+ up, we release patches and new versions as soon as they are
+ available.</p>

+
+ <ol>
+ <li>
+ <a id="what2do" name="what2do"><strong>"Why can't I ...?
+ Why won't ... work?" What to do in case of
+ problems</strong></a>
+
+ <p>If you are having trouble with your Apache server
+ software, you should take the following steps:</p>
+
+ <ol>
+ <li>
+ <strong>Check the errorlog!</strong>
+
+ <p>Apache tries to be helpful when it encounters a
+ problem. In many cases, it will provide some details by
+ writing one or messages to the server error log.
+ Sometimes this is enough for you to diagnose &amp; fix
+ the problem yourself (such as file permissions or the
+ like). The default location of the error log is
+ <samp>/usr/local/apache/logs/error_log</samp>, but see
+ the <a
+ href="../mod/core.html#errorlog"><samp>ErrorLog</samp></a>
+ directive in your config files for the location on your
+ server.</p>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <strong>Check the <a
+ href="http://httpd.apache.org/docs/misc/FAQ.html">FAQ</a>!</strong>
+
+
+ <p>The latest version of the Apache Frequently-Asked
+ Questions list can always be found at the main Apache
+ web site.</p>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <strong>Check the Apache bug database</strong>
+
+ <p>Most problems that get reported to The Apache Group
+ are recorded in the <a
+ href="http://bugs.apache.org/">bug database</a>.
+ <em><strong>Please</strong> check the existing reports,
+ open <strong>and</strong> closed, before adding
+ one.</em> If you find that your issue has already been
+ reported, please <em>don't</em> add a "me, too" report.
+ If the original report isn't closed yet, we suggest
+ that you check it periodically. You might also consider
+ contacting the original submitter, because there may be
+ an email exchange going on about the issue that isn't
+ getting recorded in the database.</p>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <strong>Ask in a user support group.</strong>
+
+ <p>A lot of common problems never make it to the bug
+ database because there's already high Q&amp;A traffic
+ about them in the <a
+ href="http://httpd.apache.org/userslist.html">Users
+ mailing list</a> or <a
+ href="news:comp.infosystems.www.servers.unix"><samp>comp.infosystems.www.servers.unix</samp></a>
+ and related newsgroups. These newsgroups are also
+ available via <a
+ href="http://groups.google.com/groups?group=comp.infosystems.www.servers">
+ Google</a>. Many Apache users, and some of the developers,
+ can be found roaming their virtual halls, so it is suggested
+ that you seek wisdom there. The chances are good that
+ you'll get a faster answer there than from the bug
+ database, even if you <em>don't</em> see your question
+ already posted.</p>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <strong>If all else fails, report the problem in the
+ bug database</strong>
+
+ <p>If you've gone through those steps above that are
+ appropriate and have obtained no relief, then please
+ <em>do</em> let The Apache Group know about the problem
+ by <a
+ href="http://httpd.apache.org/bug_report.html">logging
+ a bug report</a>.</p>
+
+ <p>If your problem involves the server crashing and
+ generating a core dump, please include a backtrace (if
+ possible). As an example,</p>
+
+ <dl>
+ <dd><code># cd <em>ServerRoot</em><br />
+ # dbx httpd core<br />
+ (dbx) where</code></dd>
+ </dl>
+
+ <p>(Substitute the appropriate locations for your
+ <samp>ServerRoot</samp> and your <samp>httpd</samp> and
+ <samp>core</samp> files. You may have to use
+ <code>gdb</code> instead of <code>dbx</code>.)</p>

+ <a id="compatible" name="compatible"><strong>How compatible
+ is Apache with my existing NCSA 1.3 setup?</strong></a>
+
+ <p>Apache attempts to offer all the features and
+ configuration options of NCSA httpd 1.3, as well as many of
+ the additional features found in NCSA httpd 1.4 and NCSA
+ httpd 1.5.</p>
+
+ <p>NCSA httpd appears to be moving toward adding
+ experimental features which are not generally required at
+ the moment. Some of the experiments will succeed while
+ others will inevitably be dropped. The Apache philosophy is
+ to add what's needed as and when it is needed.</p>
+
+ <p>Friendly interaction between Apache and NCSA developers
+ should ensure that fundamental feature enhancements stay
+ consistent between the two servers for the foreseeable
+ future.</p>
+ <hr />
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <a id="year2000" name="year2000"><strong>Is Apache Year
+ 2000 compliant?</strong></a>
+
+ <p>Yes, Apache is Year 2000 compliant.</p>
+
+ <p>Apache internally never stores years as two digits. On
+ the HTTP protocol level RFC1123-style addresses are
+ generated which is the only format a HTTP/1.1-compliant
+ server should generate. To be compatible with older
+ applications Apache recognizes ANSI C's
+ <code>asctime()</code> and RFC850-/RFC1036-style date
+ formats, too. The <code>asctime()</code> format uses
+ four-digit years, but the RFC850 and RFC1036 date formats
+ only define a two-digit year. If Apache sees such a date
+ with a value less than 70 it assumes that the century is
+ <samp>20</samp> rather than <samp>19</samp>.</p>
+
+ <p>Although Apache is Year 2000 compliant, you may still
+ get problems if the underlying OS has problems with dates
+ past year 2000 (<em>e.g.</em>, OS calls which accept or
+ return year numbers). Most (UNIX) systems store dates
+ internally as signed 32-bit integers which contain the
+ number of seconds since 1<sup>st</sup> January 1970, so the
+ magic boundary to worry about is the year 2038 and not
+ 2000. But modern operating systems shouldn't cause any
+ trouble at all.</p>
+
+ <p>Users of Apache 1.2.x should upgrade to a current
+ version of Apache 1.3 (see <a
+ href="../new_features_1_3.html#misc">year-2000 improvements
+ in Apache 1.3</a> for details).</p>
+
+ <p>The Apache HTTP Server project is an open-source
+ software product of the Apache Software Foundation. The

+ <a id="submit_patch" name="submit_patch"><strong>How do I
+ submit a patch to the Apache Group?</strong></a>
+
+ <p>The Apache Group encourages patches from outside
+ developers. There are 2 main "types" of patches: small
+ bugfixes and general improvements. Bugfixes should be
+ submitting using the Apache <a
+ href="http://httpd.apache.org/bug_report.html">bug report
+ page</a>. Improvements, modifications, and additions should
+ follow the instructions below.</p>
+
+ <p>In general, the first course of action is to be a member
+ of the <samp>dev@httpd.apache.org</samp> mailing list. This
+ indicates to the Group that you are closely following the
+ latest Apache developments. Your patch file should be
+ generated using either '<code>diff&nbsp;-c</code>' or
+ '<code>diff&nbsp;-u</code>' against the latest CVS tree. To
+ submit your patch, send email to
+ <samp>dev@httpd.apache.org</samp> with a
+ <samp>Subject:</samp> line that starts with
+ <samp>[PATCH]</samp> and includes a general description of
+ the patch. In the body of the message, the patch should be
+ clearly described and then included at the end of the
+ message. If the patch-file is long, you can note a URL to
+ the file instead of the file itself. Use of MIME
+ enclosures/attachments should be avoided.</p>
+
+ <p>Be prepared to respond to any questions about your
+ patches and possibly defend your code. If your patch
+ results in a lot of discussion, you may be asked to submit
+ an updated patch that incorporates all changes and
+ suggestions.</p>

+ <a id="domination" name="domination"><strong>Why has Apache
+ stolen my favourite site's Internet address?</strong></a>
+
+ <p>The simple answer is: "It hasn't." This misconception is
+ usually caused by the site in question having migrated to
+ the Apache Web server software, but not having migrated the
+ site's content yet. When Apache is installed, the default
+ page that gets installed tells the Webmaster the
+ installation was successful. The expectation is that this
+ default page will be replaced with the site's real content.
+ If it doesn't, complain to the Webmaster, not to the Apache
+ project -- we just make the software and aren't responsible
+ for what people do (or don't do) with it.</p>
+ <hr />
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <a id="apspam" name="apspam"><strong>Why am I getting spam
+ mail from the Apache site?</strong></a>
+
+ <p>The short answer is: "You aren't." Usually when someone
+ thinks the Apache site is originating spam, it's because
+ they've traced the spam to a Web site, and the Web site
+ says it's using Apache. See the <a
+ href="#domination">previous FAQ entry</a> for more details
+ on this phenomenon.</p>
+
+ <p>No marketing spam originates from the Apache site. The
+ only mail that comes from the site goes only to addresses
+ that have been <em>requested</em> to receive the mail.</p>

+ <li>
+ <a id="redist" name="redist"><strong>May I include the

+ distribution in the file <code>LICENSE</code>. You can also

+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <a id="regex" name="regex"><strong>What are "regular
+ expressions"?</strong></a>
+
+ <p>Regular expressions are a way of describing a pattern -
+ for example, "all the words that begin with the letter A"
+ or "every 10-digit phone number" or even "Every sentence
+ with two commas in it, and no capital letter Q". Regular
+ expressions (aka "regex"s) are useful in Apache because
+ they let you apply certain attributes against collections
+ of files or resources in very flexible ways - for example,
+ all .gif and .jpg files under any "images" directory could
+ be written as /\/images\/.*(jpg|gif)$/.</p>
+
+ <p>The best overview around is probably the one which comes
+ with Perl. We implement a simple subset of Perl's regex
+ support, but it's still a good way to learn what they mean.
+ You can start by going to the <a
+ href="http://www.perl.com/doc/manual/html/pod/perlre.html">CPAN
+ page on regular expressions</a>, and branching out from
+ there.</p> <hr />
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <a id="binaries" name="binaries"><b>Why isn't there a
+ binary for my platform?</b></a>
+
+ <p>The developers make sure that the software builds and
+ works correctly on the platforms available to them; this
+ does <i>not</i> necessarily mean that <i>your</i> platform
+ is one of them. In addition, the Apache HTTP server project
+ is primarily source oriented, meaning that distributing
+ valid and buildable source code is the purpose of a
+ release, not making sure that there is a binary package for
+ all of the supported platforms.</p>
+
+ <p>If you don't see a kit for your platform listed in the
+ binary distribution area (&lt;URL:<a
+ href="http://httpd.apache.org/dist/httpd/binaries/">http://httpd.apache.org/dist/httpd/binaries/</a>&gt;),
+ it means either that the platform isn't available to any of
+ the developers, or that they just haven't gotten around to
+ preparing a binary for it. As this is a voluntary project,
+ they are under no obligation to do so. Users are encouraged
+ and expected to build the software themselves.</p>
+
+ <p>The sole exception to these practices is the Windows
+ package. Unlike most Unix and Unix-like platforms, Windows
+ systems do not come with a bundled software development
+ environment, so we <i>do</i> prepare binary kits for
+ Windows when we make a release. Again, however, it's a
+ voluntary thing and only a limited number of the developers
+ have the capability to build the InstallShield package, so
+ the Windows release may lag somewhat behind the source
+ release. This lag should be no more than a few days at
+ most.</p>

+
+ <p>If you have installed <a
+ href="http://www.isc.org/bind.html">BIND-8</a> then this is
+ normally due to a conflict between your include files and
+ your libraries. BIND-8 installs its include files and
+ libraries <code>/usr/local/include/</code> and
+ <code>/usr/local/lib/</code>, while the resolver that comes
+ with your system is probably installed in
+ <code>/usr/include/</code> and <code>/usr/lib/</code>. If
+ your system uses the header files in
+ <code>/usr/local/include/</code> before those in
+ <code>/usr/include/</code> but you do not use the new
+ resolver library, then the two versions will conflict.</p>
+
+ <p>To resolve this, you can either make sure you use the
+ include files and libraries that came with your system or
+ make sure to use the new include files and libraries.
+ Adding <code>-lbind</code> to the
+ <code>EXTRA_LDFLAGS</code> line in your

+
+ <p>If the server won't compile on your system, it is

+
+ <ul>
+ <li><strong>The <samp>Configure</samp> script doesn't
+ recognize your system environment.</strong><br />
+ This might be either because it's completely unknown or
+ because the specific environment (include files, OS

+ this happens, you may need to port the server to your OS
+ yourself.</li>
+
+ <li><strong>Your system's C compiler is
+ garbage.</strong><br />
+ Some operating systems include a default C compiler that
+ is either not ANSI C-compliant or suffers from other
+ deficiencies. The usual recommendation in cases like this
+ is to acquire, install, and use <samp>gcc</samp>.</li>
+
+ <li><strong>Your <samp>include</samp> files may be

+ In some cases, we have found that a compiler
+ installation or system upgrade has left the C header
+ files in an inconsistent state. Make sure that your
+ include directory tree is in sync with the compiler and
+ the operating system.</li>
+
+ <li><strong>Your operating system or compiler may be out
+ of revision.</strong><br />
+ Software vendors (including those that develop operating

+ </ul>
+
+ <p>The Apache Group tests the ability to build the server

+ workarounds, either one will solve the problem:</p>
+
+ <ul>
+ <li>Remove the definition of <code>struct iovec</code>

+ <a id="broken-gcc" name="broken-gcc"><strong>I'm using gcc

+
+ <p>GCC parses your system header files and produces a
+ modified subset which it uses for compiling. This behavior
+ ties GCC tightly to the version of your operating system.
+ So, for example, if you were running IRIX 5.3 when you
+ built GCC and then upgrade to IRIX 6.2 later, you will have
+ to rebuild GCC. Similarly for Solaris 2.4, 2.5, or 2.5.1
+ when you upgrade to 2.6. Sometimes you can type "gcc -v"
+ and it will tell you the version of the operating system it
+ was built against.</p>
+
+ <p>If you fail to do this, then it is very likely that
+ Apache will fail to build. One of the most common errors is
+ with <code>readv</code>, <code>writev</code>, or

+
+ <p>Your <a

+ directive (probably in <samp>conf/httpd.conf</samp>) needs
+ to name a group that actually exists in the
+ <samp>/etc/group</samp> file (or your system's equivalent).
+ This problem is also frequently seen when a negative number
+ is used in the <code>Group</code> directive (<em>e.g.</em>,
+ "<code>Group&nbsp;#-1</code>"). Using a group name -- not
+ group number -- found in your system's group database
+ should solve this problem in all cases.</p>

+ <a id="nodelay" name="nodelay"><strong>Why am I getting
+ "<samp>httpd: could not set socket option

+
+ <p>This message almost always indicates that the client
+ disconnected before Apache reached the point of calling
+ <code>setsockopt()</code> for the connection. It shouldn't
+ occur for more than about 1% of the requests your server
+ handles, and it's advisory only in any case.</p>

+ "<samp>connection reset by peer</samp>" in my error

+
+ <p>This is a normal message and nothing about which to be
+ alarmed. It simply means that the client canceled the
+ connection before it had been completely set up - such as
+ by the end-user pressing the "Stop" button. People's
+ patience being what it is, sites with response-time
+ problems or slow network links may experience this more

+ file?</strong></a>
+
+ <p>In Apache version 1.2, the error log message about
+ dumped core includes the directory where the dump file
+ should be located. However, many Unixes do not allow a
+ process that has called <code>setuid()</code> to dump core
+ for security reasons; the typical Apache setup has the
+ server started as root to bind to port 80, after which it
+ changes UIDs to a non-privileged user to serve
+ requests.</p>
+
+ <p>Dealing with this is extremely operating
+ system-specific, and may require rebuilding your system
+ kernel. Consult your operating system documentation or
+ vendor for more information about whether your system does
+ this and how to bypass it. If there <em>is</em> a
+ documented way of bypassing it, it is recommended that you
+ bypass it only for the <samp>httpd</samp> server process if
+ possible.</p>
+
+ <p>The canonical location for Apache's core-dump files is
+ the <a href="../mod/core.html#serverroot">ServerRoot</a>
+ directory. As of Apache version 1.3, the location can be
+ set <em>via</em> the <a
+ href="../mod/core.html#coredumpdirectory"><samp>CoreDumpDirectory</samp></a>

+
+ <p>Because of its parallel-operation model, the Apache Web

+
+ <p>If you're using a custom built Apache rather than the

+ and you want the broken <code>/etc/rc.d/init.d/httpd</code>
+ (or <code>httpd.init</code>) script to be removed. The

+ given in our documentation. In RedHat's defense, the broken

+
+ <p>Detailed answer: Prior to version 1.3.9, Apache for

+ Apache began using Winsock 2 features (specifically,
+ WSADuplicateSocket()). WS2_32.DLL implements the Winsock 2

+
+
+ <p>We have seen this problem when Apache is run on systems
+ along with Virtual Private Networking clients like Aventail
+ Connect. Aventail Connect is a Layered Service Provider
+ (LSP) that inserts itself, as a "shim," between the Winsock
+ 2 API and Window's native Winsock 2 implementation. The
+ Aventail Connect shim does not implement
+ WSADuplicateSocket, which is the cause of the failure.</p>
+
+ <p>The shim is not unloaded when Aventail Connect is shut
+ down. Once observed, the problem persists until the shim is
+ either explicitly unloaded or the machine is rebooted.
+ Another potential solution (not tested) is to add
+ <code>apache.exe</code> to the Aventail "Connect Exclusion
+ List".</p>
+
+ <p>Apache is affected in a similar way by <em>any</em>

+ <h3>E. Configuration Questions</h3>
+
+ <ol>
+ <li>
+ <a id="fdlim" name="fdlim"><strong>Why can't I run more
+ than &lt;<em>n</em>&gt; virtual hosts?</strong></a>
+
+ <p>You are probably running into resource limitations in
+ your operating system. The most common limitation is the
+ <em>per</em>-process limit on <strong>file
+ descriptors</strong>, which is almost always the cause of
+ problems seen when adding virtual hosts. Apache often does
+ not give an intuitive error message because it is normally
+ some library routine (such as <code>gethostbyname()</code>)
+ which needs file descriptors and doesn't complain
+ intelligibly when it can't get them.</p>
+
+ <p>Each log file requires a file descriptor, which means
+ that if you are using separate access and error logs for
+ each virtual host, each virtual host needs two file
+ descriptors. Each <a
+ href="../mod/core.html#listen"><samp>Listen</samp></a>
+ directive also needs a file descriptor.</p>
+
+ <p>Typical values for &lt;<em>n</em>&gt; that we've seen
+ are in the neighborhood of 128 or 250. When the server
+ bumps into the file descriptor limit, it may dump core with
+ a SIGSEGV, it might just hang, or it may limp along and
+ you'll see (possibly meaningful) errors in the error log.
+ One common problem that occurs when you run into a file
+ descriptor limit is that CGI scripts stop being executed
+ properly.</p>
+
+ <p>As to what you can do about this:</p>
+
+ <ol>
+ <li>Reduce the number of <a
+ href="../mod/core.html#listen"><samp>Listen</samp></a>
+ directives. If there are no other servers running on the
+ machine on the same port then you normally don't need any
+ Listen directives at all. By default Apache listens to
+ all addresses on port 80.</li>
+
+ <li>Reduce the number of log files. You can use <a
+ href="../mod/mod_log_config.html"><samp>mod_log_config</samp></a>
+ to log all requests to a single log file while including
+ the name of the virtual host in the log file. You can
+ then write a script to split the logfile into separate
+ files later if necessary. Such a script is provided with
+ the Apache 1.3 distribution in the
+ <samp>src/support/split-logfile</samp> file.</li>
+
+ <li>
+ Increase the number of file descriptors available to
+ the server (see your system's documentation on the
+ <code>limit</code> or <code>ulimit</code> commands).
+ For some systems, information on how to do this is
+ available in the <a href="perf.html">performance
+ hints</a> page. There is a specific note for <a
+ href="#freebsd-setsize">FreeBSD</a> below.
+
+ <p>For Windows 95, try modifying your
+ <samp>C:\CONFIG.SYS</samp> file to include a line
+ like</p>
+
+ <dl>
+ <dd><code>FILES=300</code></dd>
+ </dl>
+
+ <p>Remember that you'll need to reboot your Windows 95
+ system in order for the new value to take effect.</p>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>"Don't do that" - try to run with fewer virtual
+ hosts</li>
+
+ <li>Spread your operation across multiple server
+ processes (using <a
+ href="../mod/core.html#listen"><samp>Listen</samp></a>
+ for example, but see the first point) and/or ports.</li>
+ </ol>
+
+ <p>Since this is an operating-system limitation, there's

+
+
+ <p>On versions of FreeBSD before 3.0, the
+ <samp>FD_SETSIZE</samp> define defaults to 256. This means
+ that you will have trouble usefully using more than 256
+ file descriptors in Apache. This can be increased, but
+ doing so can be tricky.</p>
+
+ <p>If you are using a version prior to 2.2, you need to
+ recompile your kernel with a larger
+ <samp>FD_SETSIZE</samp>. This can be done by adding a line
+ such as:</p>
+
+ <dl>
+ <dd><code>options FD_SETSIZE <em>nnn</em></code></dd>
+ </dl>
+
+ <p>to your kernel config file. Starting at version 2.2,
+ this is no longer necessary.</p>
+
+ <p>If you are using a version of 2.1-stable from after
+ 1997/03/10 or 2.2 or 3.0-current from before 1997/06/28,
+ there is a limit in the resolver library that prevents it
+ from using more file descriptors than what
+ <samp>FD_SETSIZE</samp> is set to when libc is compiled. To
+ increase this, you have to recompile libc with a higher
+ <samp>FD_SETSIZE</samp>.</p>
+
+ <p>In FreeBSD 3.0, the default <samp>FD_SETSIZE</samp> has
+ been increased to 1024 and the above limitation in the
+ resolver library has been removed.</p>
+
+ <p>After you deal with the appropriate changes above, you
+ can increase the setting of <samp>FD_SETSIZE</samp> at
+ Apache compilation time by adding
+ "<samp>-DFD_SETSIZE=<em>nnn</em></samp>" to the

+ give me plain text when I request an URL from an Apache
+ server?</strong></a>
+
+ <p>As of version 1.2, Apache is an HTTP/1.1 (HyperText
+ Transfer Protocol version 1.1) server. This fact is
+ reflected in the protocol version that's included in the
+ response headers sent to a client when processing a
+ request. Unfortunately, low-level Web access classes
+ included in the Java Development Kit (JDK) version 1.0.2
+ expect to see the version string "HTTP/1.0" and do not
+ correctly interpret the "HTTP/1.1" value Apache is sending
+ (this part of the response is a declaration of what the
+ server can do rather than a declaration of the dialect of
+ the response). The result is that the JDK methods do not
+ correctly parse the headers, and include them with the
+ document content by mistake.</p>
+
+ <p>This is definitely a bug in the JDK 1.0.2 foundation
+ classes from Sun, and it has been fixed in version 1.1.
+ However, the classes in question are part of the virtual
+ machine environment, which means they're part of the Web
+ browser (if Java-enabled) or the Java environment on the
+ client system - so even if you develop <em>your</em>
+ classes with a recent JDK, the eventual users might
+ encounter the problem. The classes involved are replaceable
+ by vendors implementing the Java virtual machine
+ environment, and so even those that are based upon the
+ 1.0.2 version may not have this problem.</p>
+
+ <p>In the meantime, a workaround is to tell Apache to
+ "fake" an HTTP/1.0 response to requests that come from the
+ JDK methods; this can be done by including a line such as
+ the following in your server configuration files:</p>
+
+ <dl>
+ <dd><code>BrowserMatch Java1.0 force-response-1.0<br />

+
+
+ <p>When you access a directory without a trailing "/",
+ Apache needs to send what is called a redirect to the
+ client to tell it to add the trailing slash. If it did not
+ do so, relative URLs would not work properly. When it sends
+ the redirect, it needs to know the name of the server so
+ that it can include it in the redirect. There are two ways

+ can tell it. If your DNS is configured correctly, it can
+ normally guess without any problems. If it is not, however,
+ then you need to tell it.</p>
+
+ <p>Add a <a

+
+ <p>The other thing that can occasionally cause this symptom is a
+ misunderstanding of the <a
+ href="../mod/mod_alias.html#alias">Alias</a> directive,
+ resulting in an alias working with a trailing slash, and not

+ <pre>
+ Alias /example/ /home/www/example/

+
+ <p>The above directive creates an alias for URLs starting with

+ <code>http://servername.com/example</code> will result in a

+ in your log, the first thing to do is to make sure you have
+ properly configured your server not to proxy for unknown
+ clients. If you don't need to provide a proxy server at all,
+ you should simply assure that the <a
+ href="../mod/mod_proxy.html#proxyrequests">ProxyRequests</a>
+ directive is <strong>not</strong> set <code>on</code>.
+ If you do need to run a proxy server, then you must ensure
+ that you <a href="../mod/mod_proxy.html#access">secure your
+ server properly</a> so that only authorized clients can use
+ it.</p>
+
+ <p>If your server is configured properly, then the attempt to
+ proxy through your server will fail. If you see a status
+ code of <code>404</code> (file not found) in the log, then
+ you know that the request failed. If you see a status code
+ of <code>200</code> (success), that does not necessarily mean
+ that the attempt to proxy succeeded. RFC2616 section 5.1.2
+ mandates that Apache must accept requests with absolute URLs
+ in the request-URI, even for non-proxy requests. Since
+ Apache has no way to know all the different names that your
+ server may be known under, it cannot simply reject hostnames
+ it does not recognize. Instead, it will serve requests for
+ unknown sites locally by stripping off the hostname and using
+ the default server or virtual host. Therefore you can
+ compare the size of the file (1456 in the above example) to
+ the size of the corresponding file in your default server.
+ If they are the same, then the proxy attempt failed, since a
+ document from your server was delivered, not a document from
+ <code>www.yahoo.com</code>.</p>
+
+ <p>If you wish to prevent this type of request entirely, then
+ you need to let Apache know what hostnames to accept and what
+ hostnames to reject. You do this by configuring name-virtual
+ hosts, where the first listed host is the default host that
+ will catch and reject unknown hostnames. For example:</p>
+
+<blockquote>
+<pre>
+NameVirtualHost *
+
+&lt;VirtualHost *&gt;
+ ServerName default.only
+ &lt;Location /&gt;
+ Order allow,deny
+ Deny from all
+ &lt;/Location&gt;
+&lt;/VirtualHost&gt;
+
+&lt;VirtualHost *&gt;
+ ServerName realhost1.example.com
+ ServerAlias alias1.example.com alias2.example.com
+ DocumentRoot /path/to/site1
+&lt;/VirtualHost&gt;
+
+...
+</pre>

+ <a id="CGIoutsideScriptAlias"
+ name="CGIoutsideScriptAlias"><strong>How do I enable CGI
+ execution in directories other than the
+ ScriptAlias?</strong></a>
+
+ <p>Apache recognizes all files in a directory named as a <a
+ href="../mod/mod_alias.html#scriptalias"><samp>ScriptAlias</samp></a>
+ as being eligible for execution rather than processing as
+ normal documents. This applies regardless of the file name,
+ so scripts in a ScriptAlias directory don't need to be
+ named "<samp>*.cgi</samp>" or "<samp>*.pl</samp>" or
+ whatever. In other words, <em>all</em> files in a
+ ScriptAlias directory are scripts, as far as Apache is
+ concerned.</p>
+
+ <p>To persuade Apache to execute scripts in other
+ locations, such as in directories where normal documents
+ may also live, you must tell it how to recognize them - and
+ also that it's okay to execute them. For this, you need to
+ use something like the <a
+ href="../mod/mod_mime.html#addhandler"><samp>AddHandler</samp></a>
+ directive.</p>
+
+ <ol>
+ <li>
+ In an appropriate section of your server configuration
+ files, add a line such as
+
+ <dl>
+ <dd><code>AddHandler cgi-script .cgi</code></dd>
+ </dl>
+
+ <p>The server will then recognize that all files in
+ that location (and its logical descendants) that end in
+ "<samp>.cgi</samp>" are script files, not
+ documents.</p>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>Make sure that the directory location is covered by
+ an <a
+ href="../mod/core.html#options"><samp>Options</samp></a>
+ declaration that includes the <samp>ExecCGI</samp>
+ option.</li>
+ </ol>
+
+ <p>In some situations, you might not want to actually allow
+ all files named "<samp>*.cgi</samp>" to be executable.
+ Perhaps all you want is to enable a particular file in a
+ normal directory to be executable. This can be
+ alternatively accomplished <em>via</em> <a
+ href="../mod/mod_rewrite.html"><samp>mod_rewrite</samp></a>
+ and the following steps:</p>
+
+ <ol>
+ <li>
+ Locally add to the corresponding <samp>.htaccess</samp>
+ file a ruleset similar to this one:
+
+ <dl>
+ <dd><code>RewriteEngine on<br />
+ RewriteBase /~foo/bar/<br />
+ RewriteRule ^quux\.cgi$ -
+ [T=application/x-httpd-cgi]</code></dd>
+ </dl>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>Make sure that the directory location is covered by
+ an <a

+ <a id="premature-script-headers"
+ name="premature-script-headers"><strong>What does it mean
+ when my CGIs fail with "<samp>Premature end of script
+ headers</samp>"?</strong></a>
+
+ <p>It means just what it says: the server was expecting a
+ complete set of HTTP headers (one or more followed by a
+ blank line), and didn't get them.</p>
+
+ <p>The most common cause of this problem is the script
+ dying before sending the complete set of headers, or
+ possibly any at all, to the server. To see if this is the
+ case, try running the script standalone from an interactive
+ session, rather than as a script under the server. If you
+ get error messages, this is almost certainly the cause of
+ the "premature end of script headers" message. Even if the
+ CGI runs fine from the command line, remember that the
+ environment and permissions may be different when running
+ under the web server. The CGI can only access resources
+ allowed for the <a
+ href="../mod/core.html#user"><code>User</code></a> and <a
+ href="../mod/core.html#group"><code>Group</code></a>
+ specified in your Apache configuration. In addition, the
+ environment will not be the same as the one provided on the
+ command line, but it can be adjusted using the directives
+ provided by <a href="../mod/mod_env.html">mod_env</a>.</p>
+
+ <p>The second most common cause of this (aside from people
+ not outputting the required headers at all) is a result of
+ an interaction with Perl's output buffering. To make Perl
+ flush its buffers after each output statement, insert the
+ following statements around the <code>print</code> or
+ <code>write</code> statements that send your HTTP
+ headers:</p>
+
+ <dl>
+ <dd><code>{<br />
+ &nbsp;local ($oldbar) = $|;<br />
+ &nbsp;$cfh = select (STDOUT);<br />
+ &nbsp;$| = 1;<br />
+ &nbsp;#<br />
+ &nbsp;# print your HTTP headers here<br />
+ &nbsp;#<br />
+ &nbsp;$| = $oldbar;<br />
+ &nbsp;select ($cfh);<br />
+ }</code></dd>
+ </dl>
+
+ <p>This is generally only necessary when you are calling
+ external programs from your script that send output to
+ stdout, or if there will be a long delay between the time
+ the headers are sent and the actual content starts being
+ emitted. To maximize performance, you should turn
+ buffer-flushing back <em>off</em> (with <code>$| = 0</code>
+ or the equivalent) after the statements that send the
+ headers, as displayed above.</p>
+
+ <p>If your script isn't written in Perl, do the equivalent
+ thing for whatever language you <em>are</em> using
+ (<em>e.g.</em>, for C, call <code>fflush()</code> after
+ writing the headers).</p>
+
+ <p>Another cause for the "premature end of script headers"
+ message are the RLimitCPU and RLimitMEM directives. You may
+ get the message if the CGI script was killed due to a
+ resource limit.</p>
+
+ <p>In addition, a configuration problem in <a
+ href="../suexec.html">suEXEC</a>, mod_perl, or another
+ third party module can often interfere with the execution
+ of your CGI and cause the "premature end of script headers"
+ message.</p>

+ <a id="POSTnotallowed" name="POSTnotallowed"><strong>Why do

+
+ <p>This is almost always due to Apache not being configured
+ to treat the file you are trying to POST to as a CGI
+ script. You can not POST to a normal HTML file; the
+ operation has no meaning. See the FAQ entry on <a

+ <a id="nph-scripts" name="nph-scripts"><strong>How can I

+
+ <p>As of Apache 1.3, CGI scripts are essentially not
+ buffered. Every time your script does a "flush" to output
+ data, that data gets relayed on to the client. Some
+ scripting languages, for example Perl, have their own
+ buffering for output - this can be disabled by setting the
+ <code>$|</code> special variable to 1. Of course this does
+ increase the overall number of packets being transmitted,
+ which can result in a sense of slowness for the end
+ user.</p>
+
+ <p>Prior to 1.3, you needed to use "nph-" scripts to
+ accomplish non-buffering. Today, the only difference
+ between nph scripts and normal scripts is that nph scripts
+ require the full HTTP headers to be sent.</p>

+ <a id="ssi-part-i" name="ssi-part-i"><strong>How do I
+ enable SSI (parsed HTML)?</strong></a>
+
+ <p>SSI (an acronym for Server-Side Include) directives
+ allow static HTML documents to be enhanced at run-time
+ (<em>e.g.</em>, when delivered to a client by Apache). The
+ format of SSI directives is covered in the <a
+ href="../mod/mod_include.html">mod_include manual</a>;
+ suffice it to say that Apache supports not only SSI but
+ xSSI (eXtended SSI) directives.</p>
+
+ <p>Processing a document at run-time is called
+ <em>parsing</em> it; hence the term "parsed HTML" sometimes
+ used for documents that contain SSI instructions. Parsing
+ tends to be resource-consumptive compared to serving static
+ files, and is not enabled by default. It can also interfere
+ with the cachability of your documents, which can put a
+ further load on your server. (See the <a
+ href="#ssi-part-ii">next question</a> for more information
+ about this.)</p>
+
+ <p>To enable SSI processing, you need to</p>
+
+ <ul>
+ <li>Build your server with the <a
+ href="../mod/mod_include.html"><samp>mod_include</samp></a>
+ module. This is normally compiled in by default.</li>
+
+ <li>Make sure your server configuration files have an <a
+ href="../mod/core.html#options"><samp>Options</samp></a>
+ directive which permits <samp>Includes</samp>.</li>
+
+ <li>
+ Make sure that the directory where you want the SSI
+ documents to live is covered by the "server-parsed"
+ content handler, either explicitly or in some ancestral
+ location. That can be done with the following <a
+ href="../mod/mod_mime.html#addhandler"><samp>AddHandler</samp></a>
+ directive:
+
+ <dl>
+ <dd><code>AddHandler server-parsed .shtml</code></dd>
+ </dl>
+
+ <p>This indicates that all files ending in ".shtml" in
+ that location (or its descendants) should be parsed.
+ Note that using ".html" will cause all normal HTML
+ files to be parsed, which may put an inordinate load on
+ your server.</p>
+ </li>
+ </ul>
+
+ <p>For additional information, see the <cite>Apache
+ Week</cite> article on <a

+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <a id="ssi-part-ii" name="ssi-part-ii"><strong>Why don't my
+ parsed files get cached?</strong></a>
+
+ <p>Since the server is performing run-time processing of
+ your SSI directives, which may change the content shipped
+ to the client, it can't know at the time it starts parsing
+ what the final size of the result will be, or whether the
+ parsed result will always be the same. This means that it
+ can't generate <samp>Content-Length</samp> or
+ <samp>Last-Modified</samp> headers. Caches commonly work by
+ comparing the <samp>Last-Modified</samp> of what's in the
+ cache with that being delivered by the server. Since the
+ server isn't sending that header for a parsed document,
+ whatever's doing the caching can't tell whether the
+ document has changed or not - and so fetches it again to be
+ on the safe side.</p>
+
+ <p>You can work around this in some cases by causing an
+ <samp>Expires</samp> header to be generated. (See the <a
+ href="../mod/mod_expires.html"
+ rel="Help"><samp>mod_expires</samp></a> documentation for
+ more details.) Another possibility is to use the <a
+ href="../mod/mod_include.html#xbithack"
+ rel="Help"><samp>XBitHack Full</samp></a> mechanism, which
+ tells Apache to send (under certain circumstances detailed
+ in the XBitHack directive description) a
+ <samp>Last-Modified</samp> header based upon the last
+ modification time of the file being parsed. Note that this
+ may actually be lying to the client if the parsed file
+ doesn't change but the SSI-inserted content does; if the
+ included content changes often, this can result in stale
+ copies being cached.</p>

+ <h3>G. Authentication and Access Restrictions</h3>
+
+ <ol>
+ <li>
+ <a id="dnsauth" name="dnsauth"><strong>Why isn't
+ restricting access by host or domain name working
+ correctly?</strong></a>
+
+ <p>Two of the most common causes of this are:</p>
+
+ <ol>
+ <li><strong>An error, inconsistency, or unexpected
+ mapping in the DNS registration</strong><br />
+ This happens frequently: your configuration restricts
+ access to <samp>Host.FooBar.Com</samp>, but you can't get
+ in from that host. The usual reason for this is that
+ <samp>Host.FooBar.Com</samp> is actually an alias for
+ another name, and when Apache performs the
+ address-to-name lookup it's getting the <em>real</em>
+ name, not <samp>Host.FooBar.Com</samp>. You can verify
+ this by checking the reverse lookup yourself. The easiest
+ way to work around it is to specify the correct host name
+ in your configuration.</li>
+
+ <li>
+ <strong>Inadequate checking and verification in your
+ configuration of Apache</strong><br />
+ If you intend to perform access checking and
+ restriction based upon the client's host or domain
+ name, you really need to configure Apache to
+ double-check the origin information it's supplied. You
+ do this by adding the <samp>-DMAXIMUM_DNS</samp> clause
+ to the <samp>EXTRA_CFLAGS</samp> definition in your
+ <samp>Configuration</samp> file. For example:
+
+ <dl>
+ <dd><code>EXTRA_CFLAGS=-DMAXIMUM_DNS</code></dd>
+ </dl>
+
+ <p>This will cause Apache to be very paranoid about
+ making sure a particular host address is
+ <em>really</em> assigned to the name it claims to be.
+ Note that this <em>can</em> incur a significant
+ performance penalty, however, because of all the name
+ resolution requests being sent to a nameserver.</p>

+
+ <p>Use the <a href="../mod/core.html#satisfy">Satisfy</a>
+ directive, in particular the <code>Satisfy Any</code>
+ directive, to require that only one of the access
+ restrictions be met. For example, adding the following

+ <li>
+ <a id="authauthoritative"
+ name="authauthoritative"><strong>Why does my authentication

+
+ <p>Under normal circumstances, the Apache access control
+ modules will pass unrecognized user IDs on to the next
+ access control module in line. Only if the user ID is
+ recognized and the password is validated (or not) will it
+ give the usual success or "authentication failed"
+ messages.</p>
+
+ <p>However, if the last access module in line 'declines'
+ the validation request (because it has never heard of the
+ user ID or because it is not configured), the
+ <samp>http_request</samp> handler will give one of the
+ following, confusing, errors:</p>
+
+ <ul>
+ <li><samp>check access</samp></li>
+
+ <li><samp>check user. No user file?</samp></li>
+
+ <li><samp>check access. No groups file?</samp></li>
+ </ul>
+
+ <p>This does <em>not</em> mean that you have to add an
+ '<samp>AuthUserFile&nbsp;/dev/null</samp>' line as some
+ magazines suggest!</p>
+
+ <p>The solution is to ensure that at least the last module
+ is authoritative and <strong>CONFIGURED</strong>. By
+ default, <samp>mod_auth</samp> is authoritative and will
+ give an OK/Denied, but only if it is configured with the
+ proper <samp>AuthUserFile</samp>. Likewise, if a valid
+ group is required. (Remember that the modules are processed
+ in the reverse order from that in which they appear in your
+ compile-time <samp>Configuration</samp> file.)</p>
+
+ <p>A typical situation for this error is when you are using
+ the <samp>mod_auth_dbm</samp>, <samp>mod_auth_msql</samp>,
+ <samp>mod_auth_mysql</samp>, <samp>mod_auth_anon</samp> or
+ <samp>mod_auth_cookie</samp> modules on their own. These
+ are by default <strong>not</strong> authoritative, and this
+ will pass the buck on to the (non-existent) next
+ authentication module when the user ID is not in their
+ respective database. Just add the appropriate
+ '<samp><em>XXX</em>Authoritative yes</samp>' line to the
+ configuration.</p>
+
+ <p>In general it is a good idea (though not terribly
+ efficient) to have the file-based <samp>mod_auth</samp> a
+ module of last resort. This allows you to access the web
+ server with a few special passwords even if the databases
+ are down or corrupted. This does cost a file
+ open/seek/close for each request in a protected area.</p>

+ <li>
+ <a id="msql-slow" name="msql-slow"><strong>Why is my mSQL

+ <li>
+ <a id="passwdauth" name="passwdauth"><strong>Can I use my
+ <samp>/etc/passwd</samp> file for Web page
+ authentication?</strong></a>
+
+ <p>Yes, you can - but it's a <strong>very bad
+ idea</strong>. Here are some of the reasons:</p>
+
+ <ul>
+ <li>The Web technology provides no governors on how often
+ or how rapidly password (authentication failure) retries
+ can be made. That means that someone can hammer away at
+ your system's <samp>root</samp> password using the Web,
+ using a dictionary or similar mass attack, just as fast
+ as the wire and your server can handle the requests. Most
+ operating systems these days include attack detection
+ (such as <em>n</em> failed passwords for the same account
+ within <em>m</em> seconds) and evasion (breaking the
+ connection, disabling the account under attack, disabling
+ <em>all</em> logins from that source, <em>et
+ cetera</em>), but the Web does not.</li>
+
+ <li>An account under attack isn't notified (unless the
+ server is heavily modified); there's no "You have 19483
+ login failures" message when the legitimate owner logs
+ in.</li>
+
+ <li>Without an exhaustive and error-prone examination of
+ the server logs, you can't tell whether an account has
+ been compromised. Detecting that an attack has occurred,
+ or is in progress, is fairly obvious, though -
+ <em>if</em> you look at the logs.</li>
+
+ <li>Web authentication passwords (at least for Basic
+ authentication) generally fly across the wire, and
+ through intermediate proxy systems, in what amounts to
+ plain text. "O'er the net we go/Caching all the way;/O
+ what fun it is to surf/Giving my password away!"</li>
+
+ <li>Since HTTP is stateless, information about the
+ authentication is transmitted <em>each and every
+ time</em> a request is made to the server. Essentially,
+ the client caches it after the first successful access,
+ and transmits it without asking for all subsequent
+ requests to the same server.</li>
+
+ <li>It's relatively trivial for someone on your system to
+ put up a page that will steal the cached password from a
+ client's cache without them knowing. Can you say
+ "password grabber"?</li>
+ </ul>
+
+ <p>If you still want to do this in light of the above
+ disadvantages, the method is left as an exercise for the
+ reader. It'll void your Apache warranty, though, and you'll
+ lose all accumulated UNIX guru points.</p>

+ <li>
+ <a id="prompted-twice" name="prompted-twice"><strong>Why
+ does Apache ask for my password twice before serving a
+ file?</strong></a>
+
+ <p>If the hostname under which you are accessing the server
+ is different than the hostname specified in the <a
+ href="../mod/core.html#servername"><code>ServerName</code></a>
+ directive, then depending on the setting of the <a
+ href="../mod/core.html#usecanonicalname"><code>UseCanonicalName</code></a>
+ directive, Apache will redirect you to a new hostname when
+ constructing self-referential URLs. This happens, for
+ example, in the case where you request a directory without
+ including the trailing slash.</p>
+
+ <p>When this happens, Apache will ask for authentication
+ once under the original hostname, perform the redirect, and
+ then ask again under the new hostname. For security
+ reasons, the browser must prompt again for the password
+ when the host name changes.</p>
+
+ <p>To eliminate this problem you should</p>
+
+ <ol>
+ <li>Always use the trailing slash when requesting
+ directories;</li>
+
+ <li>Change the <code>ServerName</code> to match the name

+ <a id="image-theft" name="image-theft"><strong>How can I prevent

+
+ <p>The goal here is to prevent people from inlining your images

+ appear inline in your pages.<p>
+
+ <p>This can be accomplished with a combination of SetEnvIf and
+ the Deny and Allow directives. However, it is important to
+ understand that any access restriction based on the REFERER
+ header is intrinsically problematic due to the fact that
+ browsers can send an incorrect REFERER, either because they
+ want to circumvent your restriction or simply because they don't
+ send the right thing (or anything at all).</p>
+
+ <p>The following configuration will produce the desired effect
+ if the browser passes correct REFERER headers.</p>
+
+<pre>
+SetEnvIf REFERER "www\.mydomain\.com" linked_from_here
+SetEnvIf REFERER "^$" linked_from_here

+ <a id="rewrite-complexity"
+ name="rewrite-complexity"><strong>Why is mod_rewrite so
+ difficult to learn and seems so complicated?</strong></a>
+
+ <p>Hmmm... there are a lot of reasons. First, mod_rewrite
+ itself is a powerful module which can help you in really
+ <strong>all</strong> aspects of URL rewriting, so it can be
+ no trivial module per definition. To accomplish its hard
+ job it uses software leverage and makes use of a powerful
+ regular expression library by Henry Spencer which is an
+ integral part of Apache since its version 1.2. And regular
+ expressions itself can be difficult to newbies, while
+ providing the most flexible power to the advanced
+ hacker.</p>
+
+ <p>On the other hand mod_rewrite has to work inside the
+ Apache API environment and needs to do some tricks to fit
+ there. For instance the Apache API as of 1.x really was not
+ designed for URL rewriting at the <tt>.htaccess</tt> level
+ of processing. Or the problem of multiple rewrites in
+ sequence, which is also not handled by the API per design.
+ To provide this features mod_rewrite has to do some special
+ (but API compliant!) handling which leads to difficult
+ processing inside the Apache kernel. While the user usually
+ doesn't see anything of this processing, it can be
+ difficult to find problems when some of your RewriteRules
+ seem not to work.</p>
+ <hr />
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <a id="rewrite-dontwork"
+ name="rewrite-dontwork"><strong>What can I do if my
+ RewriteRules don't work as expected?</strong></a>
+
+ <p>Use "<samp>RewriteLog somefile</samp>" and
+ "<samp>RewriteLogLevel 9</samp>" and have a precise look at
+ the steps the rewriting engine performs. This is really the
+ only one and best way to debug your rewriting
+ configuration.</p>
+ <hr />
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <a id="rewrite-prefixdocroot"
+ name="rewrite-prefixdocroot"><strong>Why don't some of my
+ URLs get prefixed with DocumentRoot when using
+ mod_rewrite?</strong></a>
+
+ <p>If the rule starts with <samp>/somedir/...</samp> make
+ sure that really no <samp>/somedir</samp> exists on the
+ filesystem if you don't want to lead the URL to match this
+ directory, <em>i.e.</em>, there must be no root directory
+ named <samp>somedir</samp> on the filesystem. Because if
+ there is such a directory, the URL will not get prefixed
+ with DocumentRoot. This behavior looks ugly, but is really
+ important for some other aspects of URL rewriting.</p>
+ <hr />
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <a id="rewrite-nocase" name="rewrite-nocase"><strong>How
+ can I make all my URLs case-insensitive with
+ mod_rewrite?</strong></a>
+
+ <p>You can't! The reasons are: first, that, case
+ translations for arbitrary length URLs cannot be done
+ <em>via</em> regex patterns and corresponding
+ substitutions. One needs a per-character pattern like the
+ sed/Perl <samp>tr|..|..|</samp> feature. Second, just
+ making URLs always upper or lower case does not solve the
+ whole problem of case-INSENSITIVE URLs, because URLs
+ actually have to be rewritten to the correct case-variant
+ for the file residing on the filesystem in order to allow
+ Apache to access the file. And the Unix filesystem is
+ always case-SENSITIVE.</p>
+
+ <p>But there is a module named <code><a
+ href="../mod/mod_speling.html">mod_speling.c</a></code> in
+ the Apache distribution. Try this module to help correct
+ people who use mis-cased URLs.</p>

+ <a id="rewrite-virthost"

+ <a id="rewrite-envwhitespace"

+ (<samp>"[E=...]"</samp>). Notice: The argument to quote
+ here is not the argument to the E-flag, it is the argument
+ of the Apache config file parser, <em>i.e.</em>, the third

+
+ <p>Because you need to install and configure a script to

+ <a id="SSL-i" name="SSL-i"><strong>Why doesn't Apache

+
+ <p>SSL (Secure Socket Layer) data transport requires
+ encryption, and many governments have restrictions upon the
+ import, export, and use of encryption technology. If Apache
+ included SSL in the base package, its distribution would
+ involve all sorts of legal and bureaucratic issues, and it
+ would no longer be freely available. Also, some of the
+ technology required to talk to current clients using SSL is
+ patented by <a href="http://www.rsa.com/">RSA Data
+ Security</a>, who restricts its use without a license.</p>
+
+ <p>Some SSL implementations of Apache are available,
+ however; see the "<a

+ <a id="footer" name="footer"><strong>How can I attach a

+
+ <p>You can make arbitrary changes to static documents by

+ launches a CGI script. The CGI is then responsible for
+ setting a content-type and delivering the requested
+ document (the location of which is passed in the

+ with whatever footer is needed.</p>
+
+ <p>Busy sites may not want to run a CGI script on every

+ the footer. There are several third party modules available
+ through the <a href="http://modules.apache.org/">Apache
+ Module Registry</a> which will add footers to documents.

+ <a id="rotate" name="rotate"><strong>How can I rotate my
+ log files?</strong></a>
+
+ <p>The simple answer: by piping the transfer log into an
+ appropriate log file rotation utility.</p>
+
+ <p>The longer answer: In the src/support/ directory, you
+ will find a utility called <a
+ href="../programs/rotatelogs.html">rotatelogs</a> which can
+ be used like this:</p>
+<pre>
+ TransferLog "|/path/to/rotatelogs /path/to/logs/access_log 86400"
+</pre>
+
+ <p>to enable daily rotation of the log files.<br />
+ A more sophisticated solution of a logfile rotation
+ utility is available under the name <code>cronolog</code>
+ from Andrew Ford's site at <a
+ href="http://www.cronolog.org/">http://www.cronolog.org/</a>.
+ It can automatically create logfile subdirectories based on
+ time and date, and can have a constant symlink point to the

+ program which does whatever you want. However, Apache does
+ offer the ability to prevent requests from ever appearing
+ in the log files. You can do this by using the <a
+ href="../mod/mod_setenvif.html#setenvif"><code>SetEnvIf</code></a>

+ Welcome to mod_rewrite, the Swiss Army Knife of URL
+ manipulation!
+
+ <p>This module uses a rule-based rewriting engine (based on a
+ regular-expression parser) to rewrite requested URLs on the
+ fly. It supports an unlimited number of rules and an
+ unlimited number of attached rule conditions for each rule to
+ provide a really flexible and powerful URL manipulation
+ mechanism. The URL manipulations can depend on various tests,
+ for instance server variables, environment variables, HTTP
+ headers, time stamps and even external database lookups in
+ various formats can be used to achieve a really granular URL
+ matching.</p>
+
+ <p>This module operates on the full URLs (including the
+ path-info part) both in per-server context
+ (<code>httpd.conf</code>) and per-directory context
+ (<code>.htaccess</code>) and can even generate query-string
+ parts on result. The rewritten result can lead to internal
+ sub-processing, external request redirection or even to an
+ internal proxy throughput.</p>
+
+ <p>But all this functionality and flexibility has its
+ drawback: complexity. So don't expect to understand this
+ entire module in just one day.</p>
+
+ <p>This module was invented and originally written in April
+ 1996<br />
+ and gifted exclusively to the The Apache Group in July 1997
+ by</p>

+ Processing</a></h1>
+ </center>
+ <hr noshade="noshade" size="1" />
+
+ <p>The internal processing of this module is very complex but
+ needs to be explained once even to the average user to avoid
+ common mistakes and to let you exploit its full
+ functionality.</p>
+
+ <h2><a id="InternalAPI" name="InternalAPI">API
+ Phases</a></h2>
+
+ <p>First you have to understand that when Apache processes a
+ HTTP request it does this in phases. A hook for each of these
+ phases is provided by the Apache API. Mod_rewrite uses two of
+ these hooks: the URL-to-filename translation hook which is
+ used after the HTTP request has been read but before any
+ authorization starts and the Fixup hook which is triggered
+ after the authorization phases and after the per-directory
+ config files (<code>.htaccess</code>) have been read, but
+ before the content handler is activated.</p>
+
+ <p>So, after a request comes in and Apache has determined the
+ corresponding server (or virtual server) the rewriting engine
+ starts processing of all mod_rewrite directives from the
+ per-server configuration in the URL-to-filename phase. A few
+ steps later when the final data directories are found, the
+ per-directory configuration directives of mod_rewrite are
+ triggered in the Fixup phase. In both situations mod_rewrite
+ rewrites URLs either to new URLs or to filenames, although
+ there is no obvious distinction between them. This is a usage
+ of the API which was not intended to be this way when the API
+ was designed, but as of Apache 1.x this is the only way
+ mod_rewrite can operate. To make this point more clear
+ remember the following two points:</p>
+
+ <ol>
+ <li>Although mod_rewrite rewrites URLs to URLs, URLs to
+ filenames and even filenames to filenames, the API
+ currently provides only a URL-to-filename hook. In Apache
+ 2.0 the two missing hooks will be added to make the
+ processing more clear. But this point has no drawbacks for
+ the user, it is just a fact which should be remembered:
+ Apache does more in the URL-to-filename hook than the API
+ intends for it.</li>
+
+ <li>
+ Unbelievably mod_rewrite provides URL manipulations in
+ per-directory context, <em>i.e.</em>, within
+ <code>.htaccess</code> files, although these are reached
+ a very long time after the URLs have been translated to
+ filenames. It has to be this way because
+ <code>.htaccess</code> files live in the filesystem, so
+ processing has already reached this stage. In other
+ words: According to the API phases at this time it is too
+ late for any URL manipulations. To overcome this chicken
+ and egg problem mod_rewrite uses a trick: When you
+ manipulate a URL/filename in per-directory context
+ mod_rewrite first rewrites the filename back to its
+ corresponding URL (which is usually impossible, but see
+ the <code>RewriteBase</code> directive below for the
+ trick to achieve this) and then initiates a new internal
+ sub-request with the new URL. This restarts processing of
+ the API phases.
+
+ <p>Again mod_rewrite tries hard to make this complicated
+ step totally transparent to the user, but you should
+ remember here: While URL manipulations in per-server
+ context are really fast and efficient, per-directory
+ rewrites are slow and inefficient due to this chicken and
+ egg problem. But on the other hand this is the only way
+ mod_rewrite can provide (locally restricted) URL
+ manipulations to the average user.</p>
+ </li>
+ </ol>
+
+ <p>Don't forget these two points!</p>
+
+ <h2><a id="InternalRuleset" name="InternalRuleset">Ruleset
+ Processing</a></h2>
+ Now when mod_rewrite is triggered in these two API phases, it
+ reads the configured rulesets from its configuration
+ structure (which itself was either created on startup for
+ per-server context or during the directory walk of the Apache
+ kernel for per-directory context). Then the URL rewriting
+ engine is started with the contained ruleset (one or more
+ rules together with their conditions). The operation of the
+ URL rewriting engine itself is exactly the same for both
+ configuration contexts. Only the final result processing is
+ different.
+
+ <p>The order of rules in the ruleset is important because the
+ rewriting engine processes them in a special (and not very
+ obvious) order. The rule is this: The rewriting engine loops
+ through the ruleset rule by rule (<code>RewriteRule</code>
+ directives) and when a particular rule matches it optionally
+ loops through existing corresponding conditions
+ (<code>RewriteCond</code> directives). For historical reasons
+ the conditions are given first, and so the control flow is a
+ little bit long-winded. See Figure 1 for more details.</p>
+

+ <table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="2" border="0">

+ </tr>
+
+ <tr>
+ <td align="CENTER"><strong>Figure 1:</strong> The
+ control flow through the rewriting ruleset</td>
+ </tr>
+ </table>
+ </div>
+
+ <p>As you can see, first the URL is matched against the
+ <em>Pattern</em> of each rule. When it fails mod_rewrite
+ immediately stops processing this rule and continues with the
+ next rule. If the <em>Pattern</em> matches, mod_rewrite looks
+ for corresponding rule conditions. If none are present, it
+ just substitutes the URL with a new value which is
+ constructed from the string <em>Substitution</em> and goes on
+ with its rule-looping. But if conditions exist, it starts an
+ inner loop for processing them in the order that they are
+ listed. For conditions the logic is different: we don't match
+ a pattern against the current URL. Instead we first create a
+ string <em>TestString</em> by expanding variables,
+ back-references, map lookups, <em>etc.</em> and then we try
+ to match <em>CondPattern</em> against it. If the pattern
+ doesn't match, the complete set of conditions and the
+ corresponding rule fails. If the pattern matches, then the
+ next condition is processed until no more conditions are
+ available. If all conditions match, processing is continued
+ with the substitution of the URL with
+ <em>Substitution</em>.</p>
+
+ <h2><a id="quoting" name="quoting">Quoting Special
+ Characters</a></h2>
+
+ <p>As of Apache 1.3.20, special characters in
+ <i>TestString</i> and <i>Substitution</i> strings can be
+ escaped (that is, treated as normal characters without their
+ usual special meaning) by prefixing them with a slosh ('\')
+ character. In other words, you can include an actual
+ dollar-sign character in a <i>Substitution</i> string by
+ using '<code>\$</code>'; this keeps mod_rewrite from trying
+ to treat it as a backreference.</p>
+
+ <h2><a id="InternalBackRefs" name="InternalBackRefs">Regex
+ Back-Reference Availability</a></h2>
+ One important thing here has to be remembered: Whenever you
+ use parentheses in <em>Pattern</em> or in one of the
+ <em>CondPattern</em>, back-references are internally created
+ which can be used with the strings <code>$N</code> and
+ <code>%N</code> (see below). These are available for creating
+ the strings <em>Substitution</em> and <em>TestString</em>.
+ Figure 2 shows to which locations the back-references are
+ transfered for expansion.

+ <code>stdout</code> or the four-character string
+ ``<code>NULL</code>'' if it fails (<em>i.e.</em>, there
+ is no corresponding value for the given key). A trivial

+
+ <p>When a substitution occurs for a new URL, this module has
+ to re-inject the URL into the server processing. To be able

+ or URL-base is. By default this prefix is the corresponding
+ filepath itself. <strong>But at most websites URLs are NOT

+ <ol>
+ <li>The variables SCRIPT_FILENAME and REQUEST_FILENAME
+ contain the same value, <em>i.e.</em>, the value of the
+ <code>filename</code> field of the internal
+ <code>request_rec</code> structure of the Apache server.
+ The first name is just the commonly known CGI variable name
+ while the second is the consistent counterpart to
+ REQUEST_URI (which contains the value of the
+ <code>uri</code> field of <code>request_rec</code>).</li>
+
+ <li>There is the special format:
+ <code>%{ENV:variable}</code> where <em>variable</em> can be
+ any environment variable. This is looked-up via internal
+ Apache structures and (if not found there) via
+ <code>getenv()</code> from the Apache server process.</li>
+
+ <li>There is the special format:
+ <code>%{HTTP:header}</code> where <em>header</em> can be
+ any HTTP MIME-header name. This is looked-up from the HTTP
+ request. Example: <code>%{HTTP:Proxy-Connection}</code> is
+ the value of the HTTP header
+ ``<code>Proxy-Connection:</code>''.</li>
+
+ <li>There is the special format
+ <code>%{LA-U:variable}</code> for look-aheads which perform
+ an internal (URL-based) sub-request to determine the final
+ value of <em>variable</em>. Use this when you want to use a
+ variable for rewriting which is actually set later in an
+ API phase and thus is not available at the current stage.
+ For instance when you want to rewrite according to the
+ <code>REMOTE_USER</code> variable from within the
+ per-server context (<code>httpd.conf</code> file) you have
+ to use <code>%{LA-U:REMOTE_USER}</code> because this
+ variable is set by the authorization phases which come
+ <em>after</em> the URL translation phase where mod_rewrite
+ operates. On the other hand, because mod_rewrite implements
+ its per-directory context (<code>.htaccess</code> file) via
+ the Fixup phase of the API and because the authorization
+ phases come <em>before</em> this phase, you just can use
+ <code>%{REMOTE_USER}</code> there.</li>
+
+ <li>There is the special format:
+ <code>%{LA-F:variable}</code> which performs an internal
+ (filename-based) sub-request to determine the final value
+ of <em>variable</em>. Most of the time this is the same as
+ LA-U above.</li>
+ </ol>
+
+ <p><em>CondPattern</em> is the condition pattern,
+ <em>i.e.</em>, a regular expression which is applied to the
+ current instance of the <em>TestString</em>, <em>i.e.</em>,
+ <em>TestString</em> is evaluated and then matched against
+ <em>CondPattern</em>.</p>
+
+ <p><strong>Remember:</strong> <em>CondPattern</em> is a
+ standard <em>Extended Regular Expression</em> with some
+ additions:</p>
+
+ <ol>
+ <li>You can prefix the pattern string with a
+ '<code>!</code>' character (exclamation mark) to specify a
+ <strong>non</strong>-matching pattern.</li>
+
+ <li>
+ There are some special variants of <em>CondPatterns</em>.
+ Instead of real regular expression strings you can also
+ use one of the following:
+
+ <ul>
+ <li>'<strong>&lt;CondPattern</strong>' (is lexically
+ lower)<br />
+ Treats the <em>CondPattern</em> as a plain string and
+ compares it lexically to <em>TestString</em>. True if
+ <em>TestString</em> is lexically lower than
+ <em>CondPattern</em>.</li>
+
+ <li>'<strong>&gt;CondPattern</strong>' (is lexically
+ greater)<br />
+ Treats the <em>CondPattern</em> as a plain string and
+ compares it lexically to <em>TestString</em>. True if
+ <em>TestString</em> is lexically greater than
+ <em>CondPattern</em>.</li>
+
+ <li>'<strong>=CondPattern</strong>' (is lexically
+ equal)<br />
+ Treats the <em>CondPattern</em> as a plain string and
+ compares it lexically to <em>TestString</em>. True if
+ <em>TestString</em> is lexically equal to
+ <em>CondPattern</em>, i.e the two strings are exactly
+ equal (character by character). If <em>CondPattern</em>
+ is just <samp>""</samp> (two quotation marks) this
+ compares <em>TestString</em> to the empty string.</li>
+
+ <li>'<strong>-d</strong>' (is
+ <strong>d</strong>irectory)<br />
+ Treats the <em>TestString</em> as a pathname and tests
+ if it exists and is a directory.</li>
+
+ <li>'<strong>-f</strong>' (is regular
+ <strong>f</strong>ile)<br />
+ Treats the <em>TestString</em> as a pathname and tests
+ if it exists and is a regular file.</li>
+
+ <li>'<strong>-s</strong>' (is regular file with
+ <strong>s</strong>ize)<br />
+ Treats the <em>TestString</em> as a pathname and tests
+ if it exists and is a regular file with size greater
+ than zero.</li>
+
+ <li>'<strong>-l</strong>' (is symbolic
+ <strong>l</strong>ink)<br />
+ Treats the <em>TestString</em> as a pathname and tests
+ if it exists and is a symbolic link.</li>
+
+ <li>'<strong>-F</strong>' (is existing file via
+ subrequest)<br />
+ Checks if <em>TestString</em> is a valid file and
+ accessible via all the server's currently-configured
+ access controls for that path. This uses an internal
+ subrequest to determine the check, so use it with care
+ because it decreases your servers performance!</li>
+
+ <li>'<strong>-U</strong>' (is existing URL via
+ subrequest)<br />
+ Checks if <em>TestString</em> is a valid URL and
+ accessible via all the server's currently-configured
+ access controls for that path. This uses an internal
+ subrequest to determine the check, so use it with care
+ because it decreases your server's performance!</li>

+ also be prefixed by an exclamation mark ('!') to
+ negate their meaning.</td>
+ </tr>
+ </table>
+ </li>
+ </ol>
+
+ <p>Additionally you can set special flags for
+ <em>CondPattern</em> by appending</p>
+
+ <blockquote>
+ <strong><code>[</code><em>flags</em><code>]</code></strong>
+ </blockquote>
+ as the third argument to the <code>RewriteCond</code>
+ directive. <em>Flags</em> is a comma-separated list of the
+ following flags:
+
+ <ul>
+ <li>'<strong><code>nocase|NC</code></strong>'
+ (<strong>n</strong>o <strong>c</strong>ase)<br />
+ This makes the test case-insensitive, <em>i.e.</em>, there
+ is no difference between 'A-Z' and 'a-z' both in the
+ expanded <em>TestString</em> and the <em>CondPattern</em>.
+ This flag is effective only for comparisons between
+ <em>TestString</em> and <em>CondPattern</em>. It has no
+ effect on filesystem and subrequest checks.</li>
+
+ <li>
+ '<strong><code>ornext|OR</code></strong>'
+ (<strong>or</strong> next condition)<br />
+ Use this to combine rule conditions with a local OR
+ instead of the implicit AND. Typical example:
+
+ <blockquote>
+<pre>
+RewriteCond %{REMOTE_HOST} ^host1.* [OR]
+RewriteCond %{REMOTE_HOST} ^host2.* [OR]
+RewriteCond %{REMOTE_HOST} ^host3.*
+RewriteRule ...some special stuff for any of these hosts...
+</pre>
+ </blockquote>
+ Without this flag you would have to write the cond/rule
+ three times.
+ </li>
+ </ul>
+
+ <p><strong>Example:</strong></p>
+
+ <blockquote>
+ To rewrite the Homepage of a site according to the
+ ``<code>User-Agent:</code>'' header of the request, you can
+ use the following:
+
+ <blockquote>
+<pre>
+RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} ^Mozilla.*
+RewriteRule ^/$ /homepage.max.html [L]
+
+RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} ^Lynx.*
+RewriteRule ^/$ /homepage.min.html [L]
+
+RewriteRule ^/$ /homepage.std.html [L]
+</pre>
+ </blockquote>
+ Interpretation: If you use Netscape Navigator as your
+ browser (which identifies itself as 'Mozilla'), then you
+ get the max homepage, which includes Frames, <em>etc.</em>
+ If you use the Lynx browser (which is Terminal-based), then
+ you get the min homepage, which contains no images, no
+ tables, <em>etc.</em> If you use any other browser you get
+ the standard homepage.

+ '<code>-</code>' which means: <strong>NO
+ substitution</strong>! Sounds silly? No, it is useful to
+ provide rewriting rules which <strong>only</strong> match
+ some URLs but do no substitution, <em>e.g.</em>, in
+ conjunction with the <strong>C</strong> (chain) flag to be
+ able to have more than one pattern to be applied before a
+ substitution occurs.</p>
+
+ <p>One more note: You can even create URLs in the
+ substitution string containing a query string part. Just use
+ a question mark inside the substitution string to indicate
+ that the following stuff should be re-injected into the
+ QUERY_STRING. When you want to erase an existing query
+ string, end the substitution string with just the question
+ mark.</p>
+

+ <tr>
+ <td><strong>Note</strong>: There is a special feature:
+ When you prefix a substitution field with
+ <code>http://</code><em>thishost</em>[<em>:thisport</em>]
+ then <strong>mod_rewrite</strong> automatically strips it
+ out. This auto-reduction on implicit external redirect
+ URLs is a useful and important feature when used in
+ combination with a mapping-function which generates the
+ hostname part. Have a look at the first example in the
+ example section below to understand this.</td>

+ <tr>
+ <td><strong>Remember:</strong> An unconditional external
+ redirect to your own server will not work with the prefix
+ <code>http://thishost</code> because of this feature. To
+ achieve such a self-redirect, you have to use the
+ <strong>R</strong>-flag (see below).</td>
+ </tr>
+ </table>
+
+ <p>Additionally you can set special flags for
+ <em>Substitution</em> by appending</p>
+
+ <blockquote>
+ <strong><code>[</code><em>flags</em><code>]</code></strong>
+ </blockquote>
+ as the third argument to the <code>RewriteRule</code>
+ directive. <em>Flags</em> is a comma-separated list of the
+ following flags:
+
+ <ul>
+ <li>
+ '<strong><code>redirect|R</code>
+ [=<em>code</em>]</strong>' (force <a id="redirect"
+ name="redirect"><strong>r</strong>edirect</a>)<br />
+ Prefix <em>Substitution</em> with
+ <code>http://thishost[:thisport]/</code> (which makes the
+ new URL a URI) to force a external redirection. If no
+ <em>code</em> is given a HTTP response of 302 (MOVED
+ TEMPORARILY) is used. If you want to use other response
+ codes in the range 300-400 just specify them as a number
+ or use one of the following symbolic names:
+ <code>temp</code> (default), <code>permanent</code>,
+ <code>seeother</code>. Use it for rules which should
+ canonicalize the URL and give it back to the client,
+ <em>e.g.</em>, translate ``<code>/~</code>'' into
+ ``<code>/u/</code>'' or always append a slash to
+ <code>/u/</code><em>user</em>, etc.<br />
+
+
+ <p><strong>Note:</strong> When you use this flag, make
+ sure that the substitution field is a valid URL! If not,
+ you are redirecting to an invalid location! And remember
+ that this flag itself only prefixes the URL with
+ <code>http://thishost[:thisport]/</code>, rewriting
+ continues. Usually you also want to stop and do the
+ redirection immediately. To stop the rewriting you also
+ have to provide the 'L' flag.</p>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>'<strong><code>forbidden|F</code></strong>' (force URL
+ to be <strong>f</strong>orbidden)<br />
+ This forces the current URL to be forbidden,
+ <em>i.e.</em>, it immediately sends back a HTTP response of
+ 403 (FORBIDDEN). Use this flag in conjunction with
+ appropriate RewriteConds to conditionally block some
+ URLs.</li>
+
+ <li>'<strong><code>gone|G</code></strong>' (force URL to be
+ <strong>g</strong>one)<br />
+ This forces the current URL to be gone, <em>i.e.</em>, it
+ immediately sends back a HTTP response of 410 (GONE). Use
+ this flag to mark pages which no longer exist as gone.</li>
+
+ <li>
+ '<strong><code>proxy|P</code></strong>' (force
+ <strong>p</strong>roxy)<br />
+ This flag forces the substitution part to be internally
+ forced as a proxy request and immediately (<em>i.e.</em>,
+ rewriting rule processing stops here) put through the <a
+ href="mod_proxy.html">proxy module</a>. You have to make
+ sure that the substitution string is a valid URI
+ (<em>e.g.</em>, typically starting with
+ <code>http://</code><em>hostname</em>) which can be
+ handled by the Apache proxy module. If not you get an
+ error from the proxy module. Use this flag to achieve a
+ more powerful implementation of the <a
+ href="mod_proxy.html#proxypass">ProxyPass</a> directive,
+ to map some remote stuff into the namespace of the local
+ server.
+
+ <p>Notice: To use this functionality make sure you have
+ the proxy module compiled into your Apache server
+ program. If you don't know please check whether
+ <code>mod_proxy.c</code> is part of the ``<code>httpd
+ -l</code>'' output. If yes, this functionality is
+ available to mod_rewrite. If not, then you first have to
+ rebuild the ``<code>httpd</code>'' program with mod_proxy
+ enabled.</p>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>'<strong><code>last|L</code></strong>'
+ (<strong>l</strong>ast rule)<br />
+ Stop the rewriting process here and don't apply any more
+ rewriting rules. This corresponds to the Perl
+ <code>last</code> command or the <code>break</code> command
+ from the C language. Use this flag to prevent the currently
+ rewritten URL from being rewritten further by following
+ rules. For example, use it to rewrite the root-path URL
+ ('<code>/</code>') to a real one, <em>e.g.</em>,
+ '<code>/e/www/</code>'.</li>
+
+ <li>'<strong><code>next|N</code></strong>'
+ (<strong>n</strong>ext round)<br />
+ Re-run the rewriting process (starting again with the
+ first rewriting rule). Here the URL to match is again not
+ the original URL but the URL from the last rewriting rule.
+ This corresponds to the Perl <code>next</code> command or
+ the <code>continue</code> command from the C language. Use
+ this flag to restart the rewriting process, <em>i.e.</em>,
+ to immediately go to the top of the loop.<br />
+ <strong>But be careful not to create an infinite
+ loop!</strong></li>
+
+ <li>'<strong><code>chain|C</code></strong>'
+ (<strong>c</strong>hained with next rule)<br />
+ This flag chains the current rule with the next rule
+ (which itself can be chained with the following rule,
+ <em>etc.</em>). This has the following effect: if a rule
+ matches, then processing continues as usual, <em>i.e.</em>,
+ the flag has no effect. If the rule does
+ <strong>not</strong> match, then all following chained
+ rules are skipped. For instance, use it to remove the
+ ``<code>.www</code>'' part inside a per-directory rule set
+ when you let an external redirect happen (where the
+ ``<code>.www</code>'' part should not to occur!).</li>
+
+ <li>
+ '<strong><code>type|T</code></strong>=<em>MIME-type</em>'
+ (force MIME <strong>t</strong>ype)<br />
+ Force the MIME-type of the target file to be
+ <em>MIME-type</em>. For instance, this can be used to
+ simulate the <code>mod_alias</code> directive
+ <code>ScriptAlias</code> which internally forces all files
+ inside the mapped directory to have a MIME type of
+ ``<code>application/x-httpd-cgi</code>''.</li>
+
+ <li>
+ '<strong><code>nosubreq|NS</code></strong>' (used only if
+ <strong>n</strong>o internal
+ <strong>s</strong>ub-request)<br />
+ This flag forces the rewriting engine to skip a
+ rewriting rule if the current request is an internal
+ sub-request. For instance, sub-requests occur internally
+ in Apache when <code>mod_include</code> tries to find out
+ information about possible directory default files
+ (<code>index.xxx</code>). On sub-requests it is not
+ always useful and even sometimes causes a failure to if
+ the complete set of rules are applied. Use this flag to
+ exclude some rules.<br />
+
+
+ <p>Use the following rule for your decision: whenever you
+ prefix some URLs with CGI-scripts to force them to be
+ processed by the CGI-script, the chance is high that you
+ will run into problems (or even overhead) on
+ sub-requests. In these cases, use this flag.</p>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>'<strong><code>nocase|NC</code></strong>'
+ (<strong>n</strong>o <strong>c</strong>ase)<br />
+ This makes the <em>Pattern</em> case-insensitive,
+ <em>i.e.</em>, there is no difference between 'A-Z' and
+ 'a-z' when <em>Pattern</em> is matched against the current
+ URL.</li>
+
+ <li>'<strong><code>qsappend|QSA</code></strong>'
+ (<strong>q</strong>uery <strong>s</strong>tring
+ <strong>a</strong>ppend)<br />
+ This flag forces the rewriting engine to append a query
+ string part in the substitution string to the existing one
+ instead of replacing it. Use this when you want to add more
+ data to the query string via a rewrite rule.</li>
+
+ <li>
+ '<strong><code>noescape|NE</code></strong>'
+ (<strong>n</strong>o URI <strong>e</strong>scaping of
+ output)<br />
+ This flag keeps mod_rewrite from applying the usual URI
+ escaping rules to the result of a rewrite. Ordinarily,
+ special characters (such as '%', '$', ';', and so on)
+ will be escaped into their hexcode equivalents ('%25',
+ '%24', and '%3B', respectively); this flag prevents this
+ from being done. This allows percent symbols to appear in
+ the output, as in
+<pre>
+ RewriteRule /foo/(.*) /bar?arg=P1\%3d$1 [R,NE]
+
+</pre>
+ which would turn '<code>/foo/zed</code>' into a safe
+ request for '<code>/bar?arg=P1=zed</code>'.
+
+ <table width="70%" border="0" bgcolor="#E0E0F0"
+ cellspacing="0" cellpadding="10">
+ <tr>
+ <td><strong>Notice:</strong> The
+ <code>noescape</code> flag is only available with
+ Apache 1.3.20 and later versions.</td>
+ </tr>
+ </table>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ '<strong><code>passthrough|PT</code></strong>'
+ (<strong>p</strong>ass <strong>t</strong>hrough to next
+ handler)<br />
+ This flag forces the rewriting engine to set the
+ <code>uri</code> field of the internal
+ <code>request_rec</code> structure to the value of the
+ <code>filename</code> field. This flag is just a hack to
+ be able to post-process the output of
+ <code>RewriteRule</code> directives by
+ <code>Alias</code>, <code>ScriptAlias</code>,
+ <code>Redirect</code>, <em>etc.</em> directives from
+ other URI-to-filename translators. A trivial example to
+ show the semantics: If you want to rewrite
+ <code>/abc</code> to <code>/def</code> via the rewriting
+ engine of <code>mod_rewrite</code> and then
+ <code>/def</code> to <code>/ghi</code> with
+ <code>mod_alias</code>:
+<pre>
+ RewriteRule ^/abc(.*) /def$1 [PT]
+ Alias /def /ghi
+
+</pre>
+ If you omit the <code>PT</code> flag then
+ <code>mod_rewrite</code> will do its job fine,
+ <em>i.e.</em>, it rewrites <code>uri=/abc/...</code> to
+ <code>filename=/def/...</code> as a full API-compliant
+ URI-to-filename translator should do. Then
+ <code>mod_alias</code> comes and tries to do a
+ URI-to-filename transition which will not work.
+
+ <p>Note: <strong>You have to use this flag if you want to
+ intermix directives of different modules which contain
+ URL-to-filename translators</strong>. The typical example
+ is the use of <code>mod_alias</code> and
+ <code>mod_rewrite</code>..</p>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>'<strong><code>skip|S</code></strong>=<em>num</em>'
+ (<strong>s</strong>kip next rule(s))<br />
+ This flag forces the rewriting engine to skip the next
+ <em>num</em> rules in sequence when the current rule
+ matches. Use this to make pseudo if-then-else constructs:
+ The last rule of the then-clause becomes
+ <code>skip=N</code> where N is the number of rules in the
+ else-clause. (This is <strong>not</strong> the same as the
+ 'chain|C' flag!)</li>
+
+ <li>
+ '<strong><code>env|E=</code></strong><em>VAR</em>:<em>VAL</em>'
+ (set <strong>e</strong>nvironment variable)<br />
+ This forces an environment variable named <em>VAR</em> to
+ be set to the value <em>VAL</em>, where <em>VAL</em> can
+ contain regexp backreferences <code>$N</code> and
+ <code>%N</code> which will be expanded. You can use this
+ flag more than once to set more than one variable. The
+ variables can be later dereferenced in many situations, but
+ usually from within XSSI (via <code>&lt;!--#echo
+ var="VAR"--&gt;</code>) or CGI (<em>e.g.</em>
+ <code>$ENV{'VAR'}</code>). Additionally you can dereference
+ it in a following RewriteCond pattern via
+ <code>%{ENV:VAR}</code>. Use this to strip but remember
+ information from URLs.</li>

+ Welcome to mod_rewrite, the Swiss Army Knife of URL
+ manipulation!
+
+ <p>This module uses a rule-based rewriting engine (based on a
+ regular-expression parser) to rewrite requested URLs on the
+ fly. It supports an unlimited number of rules and an
+ unlimited number of attached rule conditions for each rule to
+ provide a really flexible and powerful URL manipulation
+ mechanism. The URL manipulations can depend on various tests,
+ for instance server variables, environment variables, HTTP
+ headers, time stamps and even external database lookups in
+ various formats can be used to achieve a really granular URL
+ matching.</p>
+
+ <p>This module operates on the full URLs (including the
+ path-info part) both in per-server context
+ (<code>httpd.conf</code>) and per-directory context
+ (<code>.htaccess</code>) and can even generate query-string
+ parts on result. The rewritten result can lead to internal
+ sub-processing, external request redirection or even to an
+ internal proxy throughput.</p>
+
+ <p>But all this functionality and flexibility has its
+ drawback: complexity. So don't expect to understand this
+ entire module in just one day.</p>
+
+ <p>This module was invented and originally written in April
+ 1996<br />
+ and gifted exclusively to the The Apache Group in July 1997
+ by</p>

+ <hr noshade="noshade" size="1" />
+
+ <p>The internal processing of this module is very complex but
+ needs to be explained once even to the average user to avoid
+ common mistakes and to let you exploit its full
+ functionality.</p>
+
+ <h2><a id="InternalAPI" name="InternalAPI">API
+ Phases</a></h2>
+
+ <p>First you have to understand that when Apache processes a
+ HTTP request it does this in phases. A hook for each of these
+ phases is provided by the Apache API. Mod_rewrite uses two of
+ these hooks: the URL-to-filename translation hook which is
+ used after the HTTP request has been read but before any
+ authorization starts and the Fixup hook which is triggered
+ after the authorization phases and after the per-directory
+ config files (<code>.htaccess</code>) have been read, but
+ before the content handler is activated.</p>
+
+ <p>So, after a request comes in and Apache has determined the
+ corresponding server (or virtual server) the rewriting engine
+ starts processing of all mod_rewrite directives from the
+ per-server configuration in the URL-to-filename phase. A few
+ steps later when the final data directories are found, the
+ per-directory configuration directives of mod_rewrite are
+ triggered in the Fixup phase. In both situations mod_rewrite
+ rewrites URLs either to new URLs or to filenames, although
+ there is no obvious distinction between them. This is a usage
+ of the API which was not intended to be this way when the API
+ was designed, but as of Apache 1.x this is the only way
+ mod_rewrite can operate. To make this point more clear
+ remember the following two points:</p>
+
+ <ol>
+ <li>Although mod_rewrite rewrites URLs to URLs, URLs to
+ filenames and even filenames to filenames, the API
+ currently provides only a URL-to-filename hook. In Apache
+ 2.0 the two missing hooks will be added to make the
+ processing more clear. But this point has no drawbacks for
+ the user, it is just a fact which should be remembered:
+ Apache does more in the URL-to-filename hook than the API
+ intends for it.</li>
+
+ <li>
+ Unbelievably mod_rewrite provides URL manipulations in
+ per-directory context, <em>i.e.</em>, within
+ <code>.htaccess</code> files, although these are reached
+ a very long time after the URLs have been translated to
+ filenames. It has to be this way because
+ <code>.htaccess</code> files live in the filesystem, so
+ processing has already reached this stage. In other
+ words: According to the API phases at this time it is too
+ late for any URL manipulations. To overcome this chicken
+ and egg problem mod_rewrite uses a trick: When you
+ manipulate a URL/filename in per-directory context
+ mod_rewrite first rewrites the filename back to its
+ corresponding URL (which is usually impossible, but see
+ the <code>RewriteBase</code> directive below for the
+ trick to achieve this) and then initiates a new internal
+ sub-request with the new URL. This restarts processing of
+ the API phases.
+
+ <p>Again mod_rewrite tries hard to make this complicated
+ step totally transparent to the user, but you should
+ remember here: While URL manipulations in per-server
+ context are really fast and efficient, per-directory
+ rewrites are slow and inefficient due to this chicken and
+ egg problem. But on the other hand this is the only way
+ mod_rewrite can provide (locally restricted) URL
+ manipulations to the average user.</p>
+ </li>
+ </ol>
+
+ <p>Don't forget these two points!</p>
+
+ <h2><a id="InternalRuleset" name="InternalRuleset">Ruleset
+ Processing</a></h2>
+ Now when mod_rewrite is triggered in these two API phases, it
+ reads the configured rulesets from its configuration
+ structure (which itself was either created on startup for
+ per-server context or during the directory walk of the Apache
+ kernel for per-directory context). Then the URL rewriting
+ engine is started with the contained ruleset (one or more
+ rules together with their conditions). The operation of the
+ URL rewriting engine itself is exactly the same for both
+ configuration contexts. Only the final result processing is
+ different.
+
+ <p>The order of rules in the ruleset is important because the
+ rewriting engine processes them in a special (and not very
+ obvious) order. The rule is this: The rewriting engine loops
+ through the ruleset rule by rule (<code>RewriteRule</code>
+ directives) and when a particular rule matches it optionally
+ loops through existing corresponding conditions
+ (<code>RewriteCond</code> directives). For historical reasons
+ the conditions are given first, and so the control flow is a
+ little bit long-winded. See Figure 1 for more details.</p>

+
+ <tr>
+ <td align="CENTER"><strong>Figure 1:</strong> The
+ control flow through the rewriting ruleset</td>
+ </tr>
+ </table>
+ </div>
+
+ <p>As you can see, first the URL is matched against the
+ <em>Pattern</em> of each rule. When it fails mod_rewrite
+ immediately stops processing this rule and continues with the
+ next rule. If the <em>Pattern</em> matches, mod_rewrite looks
+ for corresponding rule conditions. If none are present, it
+ just substitutes the URL with a new value which is
+ constructed from the string <em>Substitution</em> and goes on
+ with its rule-looping. But if conditions exist, it starts an
+ inner loop for processing them in the order that they are
+ listed. For conditions the logic is different: we don't match
+ a pattern against the current URL. Instead we first create a
+ string <em>TestString</em> by expanding variables,
+ back-references, map lookups, <em>etc.</em> and then we try
+ to match <em>CondPattern</em> against it. If the pattern
+ doesn't match, the complete set of conditions and the
+ corresponding rule fails. If the pattern matches, then the
+ next condition is processed until no more conditions are
+ available. If all conditions match, processing is continued
+ with the substitution of the URL with
+ <em>Substitution</em>.</p>
+
+ <h2><a id="quoting" name="quoting">Quoting Special
+ Characters</a></h2>
+
+ <p>As of Apache 1.3.20, special characters in
+ <i>TestString</i> and <i>Substitution</i> strings can be
+ escaped (that is, treated as normal characters without their
+ usual special meaning) by prefixing them with a slosh ('\')
+ character. In other words, you can include an actual
+ dollar-sign character in a <i>Substitution</i> string by
+ using '<code>\$</code>'; this keeps mod_rewrite from trying
+ to treat it as a backreference.</p>
+
+ <h2><a id="InternalBackRefs" name="InternalBackRefs">Regex
+ Back-Reference Availability</a></h2>
+ One important thing here has to be remembered: Whenever you
+ use parentheses in <em>Pattern</em> or in one of the
+ <em>CondPattern</em>, back-references are internally created
+ which can be used with the strings <code>$N</code> and
+ <code>%N</code> (see below). These are available for creating
+ the strings <em>Substitution</em> and <em>TestString</em>.
+ Figure 2 shows to which locations the back-references are
+ transfered for expansion.

+ on <code>stdin</code>. It then has to give back the
+ looked-up value as a newline-terminated string on
+ <code>stdout</code> or the four-character string
+ ``<code>NULL</code>'' if it fails (<em>i.e.</em>, there
+ is no corresponding value for the given key). A trivial
+ program which will implement a 1:1 map (<em>i.e.</em>,
+ key == value) could be:</p>

+ <p>The <code>RewriteBase</code> directive explicitly sets the

+ <code>RewriteRule</code> can be used in per-directory config
+ files (<code>.htaccess</code>). There it will act locally,
+ <em>i.e.</em>, the local directory prefix is stripped at this
+ stage of processing and your rewriting rules act only on the
+ remainder. At the end it is automatically added back to the
+ path.</p>
+
+ <p>When a substitution occurs for a new URL, this module has
+ to re-inject the URL into the server processing. To be able
+ to do this it needs to know what the corresponding URL-prefix
+ or URL-base is. By default this prefix is the corresponding
+ filepath itself. <strong>But at most websites URLs are NOT
+ directly related to physical filename paths, so this
+ assumption will usually be wrong!</strong> There you have to

+
+ <ol>
+ <li>The variables SCRIPT_FILENAME and REQUEST_FILENAME
+ contain the same value, <em>i.e.</em>, the value of the
+ <code>filename</code> field of the internal
+ <code>request_rec</code> structure of the Apache server.
+ The first name is just the commonly known CGI variable name
+ while the second is the consistent counterpart to
+ REQUEST_URI (which contains the value of the
+ <code>uri</code> field of <code>request_rec</code>).</li>
+
+ <li>There is the special format:
+ <code>%{ENV:variable}</code> where <em>variable</em> can be
+ any environment variable. This is looked-up via internal
+ Apache structures and (if not found there) via
+ <code>getenv()</code> from the Apache server process.</li>
+
+ <li>There is the special format:
+ <code>%{HTTP:header}</code> where <em>header</em> can be
+ any HTTP MIME-header name. This is looked-up from the HTTP
+ request. Example: <code>%{HTTP:Proxy-Connection}</code> is
+ the value of the HTTP header
+ ``<code>Proxy-Connection:</code>''.</li>
+
+ <li>There is the special format
+ <code>%{LA-U:variable}</code> for look-aheads which perform
+ an internal (URL-based) sub-request to determine the final
+ value of <em>variable</em>. Use this when you want to use a
+ variable for rewriting which is actually set later in an
+ API phase and thus is not available at the current stage.
+ For instance when you want to rewrite according to the
+ <code>REMOTE_USER</code> variable from within the
+ per-server context (<code>httpd.conf</code> file) you have
+ to use <code>%{LA-U:REMOTE_USER}</code> because this
+ variable is set by the authorization phases which come
+ <em>after</em> the URL translation phase where mod_rewrite
+ operates. On the other hand, because mod_rewrite implements
+ its per-directory context (<code>.htaccess</code> file) via
+ the Fixup phase of the API and because the authorization
+ phases come <em>before</em> this phase, you just can use
+ <code>%{REMOTE_USER}</code> there.</li>
+
+ <li>There is the special format:
+ <code>%{LA-F:variable}</code> which performs an internal
+ (filename-based) sub-request to determine the final value
+ of <em>variable</em>. Most of the time this is the same as
+ LA-U above.</li>
+ </ol>
+
+ <p><em>CondPattern</em> is the condition pattern,
+ <em>i.e.</em>, a regular expression which is applied to the
+ current instance of the <em>TestString</em>, <em>i.e.</em>,
+ <em>TestString</em> is evaluated and then matched against
+ <em>CondPattern</em>.</p>
+
+ <p><strong>Remember:</strong> <em>CondPattern</em> is a
+ standard <em>Extended Regular Expression</em> with some
+ additions:</p>
+
+ <ol>
+ <li>You can prefix the pattern string with a
+ '<code>!</code>' character (exclamation mark) to specify a
+ <strong>non</strong>-matching pattern.</li>
+
+ <li>
+ There are some special variants of <em>CondPatterns</em>.
+ Instead of real regular expression strings you can also
+ use one of the following:
+
+ <ul>
+ <li>'<strong>&lt;CondPattern</strong>' (is lexically
+ lower)<br />
+ Treats the <em>CondPattern</em> as a plain string and
+ compares it lexically to <em>TestString</em>. True if
+ <em>TestString</em> is lexically lower than
+ <em>CondPattern</em>.</li>
+
+ <li>'<strong>&gt;CondPattern</strong>' (is lexically
+ greater)<br />
+ Treats the <em>CondPattern</em> as a plain string and
+ compares it lexically to <em>TestString</em>. True if
+ <em>TestString</em> is lexically greater than
+ <em>CondPattern</em>.</li>
+
+ <li>'<strong>=CondPattern</strong>' (is lexically
+ equal)<br />
+ Treats the <em>CondPattern</em> as a plain string and
+ compares it lexically to <em>TestString</em>. True if
+ <em>TestString</em> is lexically equal to
+ <em>CondPattern</em>, i.e the two strings are exactly
+ equal (character by character). If <em>CondPattern</em>
+ is just <samp>""</samp> (two quotation marks) this
+ compares <em>TestString</em> to the empty string.</li>
+
+ <li>'<strong>-d</strong>' (is
+ <strong>d</strong>irectory)<br />
+ Treats the <em>TestString</em> as a pathname and tests
+ if it exists and is a directory.</li>
+
+ <li>'<strong>-f</strong>' (is regular
+ <strong>f</strong>ile)<br />
+ Treats the <em>TestString</em> as a pathname and tests
+ if it exists and is a regular file.</li>
+
+ <li>'<strong>-s</strong>' (is regular file with
+ <strong>s</strong>ize)<br />
+ Treats the <em>TestString</em> as a pathname and tests
+ if it exists and is a regular file with size greater
+ than zero.</li>
+
+ <li>'<strong>-l</strong>' (is symbolic
+ <strong>l</strong>ink)<br />
+ Treats the <em>TestString</em> as a pathname and tests
+ if it exists and is a symbolic link.</li>
+
+ <li>'<strong>-F</strong>' (is existing file via
+ subrequest)<br />
+ Checks if <em>TestString</em> is a valid file and
+ accessible via all the server's currently-configured
+ access controls for that path. This uses an internal
+ subrequest to determine the check, so use it with care
+ because it decreases your servers performance!</li>
+
+ <li>'<strong>-U</strong>' (is existing URL via
+ subrequest)<br />
+ Checks if <em>TestString</em> is a valid URL and
+ accessible via all the server's currently-configured
+ access controls for that path. This uses an internal
+ subrequest to determine the check, so use it with care
+ because it decreases your server's performance!</li>

+ negate their meaning.</td>
+ </tr>
+ </table>
+ </li>
+ </ol>
+
+ <p>Additionally you can set special flags for
+ <em>CondPattern</em> by appending</p>
+
+ <blockquote>
+ <strong><code>[</code><em>flags</em><code>]</code></strong>
+ </blockquote>
+ as the third argument to the <code>RewriteCond</code>
+ directive. <em>Flags</em> is a comma-separated list of the
+ following flags:
+
+ <ul>
+ <li>'<strong><code>nocase|NC</code></strong>'
+ (<strong>n</strong>o <strong>c</strong>ase)<br />
+ This makes the test case-insensitive, <em>i.e.</em>, there
+ is no difference between 'A-Z' and 'a-z' both in the
+ expanded <em>TestString</em> and the <em>CondPattern</em>.
+ This flag is effective only for comparisons between
+ <em>TestString</em> and <em>CondPattern</em>. It has no
+ effect on filesystem and subrequest checks.</li>
+
+ <li>
+ '<strong><code>ornext|OR</code></strong>'
+ (<strong>or</strong> next condition)<br />
+ Use this to combine rule conditions with a local OR
+ instead of the implicit AND. Typical example:
+
+ <blockquote>
+<pre>
+RewriteCond %{REMOTE_HOST} ^host1.* [OR]
+RewriteCond %{REMOTE_HOST} ^host2.* [OR]
+RewriteCond %{REMOTE_HOST} ^host3.*
+RewriteRule ...some special stuff for any of these hosts...
+</pre>
+ </blockquote>
+ Without this flag you would have to write the cond/rule
+ three times.
+ </li>
+ </ul>
+
+ <p><strong>Example:</strong></p>
+
+ <blockquote>
+ To rewrite the Homepage of a site according to the
+ ``<code>User-Agent:</code>'' header of the request, you can
+ use the following:
+
+ <blockquote>
+<pre>
+RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} ^Mozilla.*
+RewriteRule ^/$ /homepage.max.html [L]
+
+RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} ^Lynx.*
+RewriteRule ^/$ /homepage.min.html [L]
+
+RewriteRule ^/$ /homepage.std.html [L]
+</pre>
+ </blockquote>
+ Interpretation: If you use Netscape Navigator as your
+ browser (which identifies itself as 'Mozilla'), then you
+ get the max homepage, which includes Frames, <em>etc.</em>
+ If you use the Lynx browser (which is Terminal-based), then
+ you get the min homepage, which contains no images, no
+ tables, <em>etc.</em> If you use any other browser you get
+ the standard homepage.

+ URLs is a useful and important feature when used in

+ hostname part. Have a look at the first example in the
+ example section below to understand this.</td>

+
+ <p>Additionally you can set special flags for
+ <em>Substitution</em> by appending</p>
+
+ <blockquote>
+ <strong><code>[</code><em>flags</em><code>]</code></strong>
+ </blockquote>
+ as the third argument to the <code>RewriteRule</code>
+ directive. <em>Flags</em> is a comma-separated list of the
+ following flags:
+
+ <ul>
+ <li>
+ '<strong><code>redirect|R</code>
+ [=<em>code</em>]</strong>' (force <a id="redirect"
+ name="redirect"><strong>r</strong>edirect</a>)<br />
+ Prefix <em>Substitution</em> with
+ <code>http://thishost[:thisport]/</code> (which makes the
+ new URL a URI) to force a external redirection. If no
+ <em>code</em> is given a HTTP response of 302 (MOVED
+ TEMPORARILY) is used. If you want to use other response
+ codes in the range 300-400 just specify them as a number
+ or use one of the following symbolic names:
+ <code>temp</code> (default), <code>permanent</code>,
+ <code>seeother</code>. Use it for rules which should
+ canonicalize the URL and give it back to the client,
+ <em>e.g.</em>, translate ``<code>/~</code>'' into
+ ``<code>/u/</code>'' or always append a slash to
+ <code>/u/</code><em>user</em>, etc.<br />
+
+
+ <p><strong>Note:</strong> When you use this flag, make
+ sure that the substitution field is a valid URL! If not,
+ you are redirecting to an invalid location! And remember
+ that this flag itself only prefixes the URL with
+ <code>http://thishost[:thisport]/</code>, rewriting
+ continues. Usually you also want to stop and do the
+ redirection immediately. To stop the rewriting you also
+ have to provide the 'L' flag.</p>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>'<strong><code>forbidden|F</code></strong>' (force URL
+ to be <strong>f</strong>orbidden)<br />
+ This forces the current URL to be forbidden,
+ <em>i.e.</em>, it immediately sends back a HTTP response of
+ 403 (FORBIDDEN). Use this flag in conjunction with
+ appropriate RewriteConds to conditionally block some
+ URLs.</li>
+
+ <li>'<strong><code>gone|G</code></strong>' (force URL to be
+ <strong>g</strong>one)<br />
+ This forces the current URL to be gone, <em>i.e.</em>, it
+ immediately sends back a HTTP response of 410 (GONE). Use
+ this flag to mark pages which no longer exist as gone.</li>
+
+ <li>
+ '<strong><code>proxy|P</code></strong>' (force
+ <strong>p</strong>roxy)<br />
+ This flag forces the substitution part to be internally
+ forced as a proxy request and immediately (<em>i.e.</em>,
+ rewriting rule processing stops here) put through the <a
+ href="mod_proxy.html">proxy module</a>. You have to make
+ sure that the substitution string is a valid URI
+ (<em>e.g.</em>, typically starting with
+ <code>http://</code><em>hostname</em>) which can be
+ handled by the Apache proxy module. If not you get an
+ error from the proxy module. Use this flag to achieve a
+ more powerful implementation of the <a
+ href="mod_proxy.html#proxypass">ProxyPass</a> directive,
+ to map some remote stuff into the namespace of the local
+ server.
+
+ <p>Notice: To use this functionality make sure you have
+ the proxy module compiled into your Apache server
+ program. If you don't know please check whether
+ <code>mod_proxy.c</code> is part of the ``<code>httpd
+ -l</code>'' output. If yes, this functionality is
+ available to mod_rewrite. If not, then you first have to
+ rebuild the ``<code>httpd</code>'' program with mod_proxy
+ enabled.</p>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>'<strong><code>last|L</code></strong>'
+ (<strong>l</strong>ast rule)<br />
+ Stop the rewriting process here and don't apply any more
+ rewriting rules. This corresponds to the Perl
+ <code>last</code> command or the <code>break</code> command
+ from the C language. Use this flag to prevent the currently
+ rewritten URL from being rewritten further by following
+ rules. For example, use it to rewrite the root-path URL
+ ('<code>/</code>') to a real one, <em>e.g.</em>,
+ '<code>/e/www/</code>'.</li>
+
+ <li>'<strong><code>next|N</code></strong>'
+ (<strong>n</strong>ext round)<br />
+ Re-run the rewriting process (starting again with the
+ first rewriting rule). Here the URL to match is again not
+ the original URL but the URL from the last rewriting rule.
+ This corresponds to the Perl <code>next</code> command or
+ the <code>continue</code> command from the C language. Use
+ this flag to restart the rewriting process, <em>i.e.</em>,
+ to immediately go to the top of the loop.<br />
+ <strong>But be careful not to create an infinite
+ loop!</strong></li>
+
+ <li>'<strong><code>chain|C</code></strong>'
+ (<strong>c</strong>hained with next rule)<br />
+ This flag chains the current rule with the next rule
+ (which itself can be chained with the following rule,
+ <em>etc.</em>). This has the following effect: if a rule
+ matches, then processing continues as usual, <em>i.e.</em>,
+ the flag has no effect. If the rule does
+ <strong>not</strong> match, then all following chained
+ rules are skipped. For instance, use it to remove the
+ ``<code>.www</code>'' part inside a per-directory rule set
+ when you let an external redirect happen (where the
+ ``<code>.www</code>'' part should not to occur!).</li>
+
+ <li>
+ '<strong><code>type|T</code></strong>=<em>MIME-type</em>'
+ (force MIME <strong>t</strong>ype)<br />
+ Force the MIME-type of the target file to be
+ <em>MIME-type</em>. For instance, this can be used to
+ simulate the <code>mod_alias</code> directive
+ <code>ScriptAlias</code> which internally forces all files
+ inside the mapped directory to have a MIME type of
+ ``<code>application/x-httpd-cgi</code>''.</li>
+
+ <li>
+ '<strong><code>nosubreq|NS</code></strong>' (used only if
+ <strong>n</strong>o internal
+ <strong>s</strong>ub-request)<br />
+ This flag forces the rewriting engine to skip a
+ rewriting rule if the current request is an internal
+ sub-request. For instance, sub-requests occur internally
+ in Apache when <code>mod_include</code> tries to find out
+ information about possible directory default files
+ (<code>index.xxx</code>). On sub-requests it is not
+ always useful and even sometimes causes a failure to if
+ the complete set of rules are applied. Use this flag to
+ exclude some rules.<br />
+
+
+ <p>Use the following rule for your decision: whenever you
+ prefix some URLs with CGI-scripts to force them to be
+ processed by the CGI-script, the chance is high that you
+ will run into problems (or even overhead) on
+ sub-requests. In these cases, use this flag.</p>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>'<strong><code>nocase|NC</code></strong>'
+ (<strong>n</strong>o <strong>c</strong>ase)<br />
+ This makes the <em>Pattern</em> case-insensitive,
+ <em>i.e.</em>, there is no difference between 'A-Z' and
+ 'a-z' when <em>Pattern</em> is matched against the current
+ URL.</li>
+
+ <li>'<strong><code>qsappend|QSA</code></strong>'
+ (<strong>q</strong>uery <strong>s</strong>tring
+ <strong>a</strong>ppend)<br />
+ This flag forces the rewriting engine to append a query
+ string part in the substitution string to the existing one
+ instead of replacing it. Use this when you want to add more
+ data to the query string via a rewrite rule.</li>
+
+ <li>
+ '<strong><code>noescape|NE</code></strong>'
+ (<strong>n</strong>o URI <strong>e</strong>scaping of
+ output)<br />
+ This flag keeps mod_rewrite from applying the usual URI
+ escaping rules to the result of a rewrite. Ordinarily,
+ special characters (such as '%', '$', ';', and so on)
+ will be escaped into their hexcode equivalents ('%25',
+ '%24', and '%3B', respectively); this flag prevents this
+ from being done. This allows percent symbols to appear in
+ the output, as in
+<pre>
+ RewriteRule /foo/(.*) /bar?arg=P1\%3d$1 [R,NE]
+
+</pre>
+ which would turn '<code>/foo/zed</code>' into a safe
+ request for '<code>/bar?arg=P1=zed</code>'.
+
+ <table width="70%" border="0" bgcolor="#E0E0F0"
+ cellspacing="0" cellpadding="10">
+ <tr>
+ <td><strong>Notice:</strong> The
+ <code>noescape</code> flag is only available with
+ Apache 1.3.20 and later versions.</td>
+ </tr>
+ </table>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ '<strong><code>passthrough|PT</code></strong>'
+ (<strong>p</strong>ass <strong>t</strong>hrough to next
+ handler)<br />
+ This flag forces the rewriting engine to set the
+ <code>uri</code> field of the internal
+ <code>request_rec</code> structure to the value of the
+ <code>filename</code> field. This flag is just a hack to
+ be able to post-process the output of
+ <code>RewriteRule</code> directives by
+ <code>Alias</code>, <code>ScriptAlias</code>,
+ <code>Redirect</code>, <em>etc.</em> directives from
+ other URI-to-filename translators. A trivial example to
+ show the semantics: If you want to rewrite
+ <code>/abc</code> to <code>/def</code> via the rewriting
+ engine of <code>mod_rewrite</code> and then
+ <code>/def</code> to <code>/ghi</code> with
+ <code>mod_alias</code>:
+<pre>
+ RewriteRule ^/abc(.*) /def$1 [PT]
+ Alias /def /ghi
+
+</pre>
+ If you omit the <code>PT</code> flag then
+ <code>mod_rewrite</code> will do its job fine,
+ <em>i.e.</em>, it rewrites <code>uri=/abc/...</code> to
+ <code>filename=/def/...</code> as a full API-compliant
+ URI-to-filename translator should do. Then
+ <code>mod_alias</code> comes and tries to do a
+ URI-to-filename transition which will not work.
+
+ <p>Note: <strong>You have to use this flag if you want to
+ intermix directives of different modules which contain
+ URL-to-filename translators</strong>. The typical example
+ is the use of <code>mod_alias</code> and
+ <code>mod_rewrite</code>..</p>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>'<strong><code>skip|S</code></strong>=<em>num</em>'
+ (<strong>s</strong>kip next rule(s))<br />
+ This flag forces the rewriting engine to skip the next
+ <em>num</em> rules in sequence when the current rule
+ matches. Use this to make pseudo if-then-else constructs:
+ The last rule of the then-clause becomes
+ <code>skip=N</code> where N is the number of rules in the
+ else-clause. (This is <strong>not</strong> the same as the
+ 'chain|C' flag!)</li>
+
+ <li>
+ '<strong><code>env|E=</code></strong><em>VAR</em>:<em>VAL</em>'
+ (set <strong>e</strong>nvironment variable)<br />
+ This forces an environment variable named <em>VAR</em> to
+ be set to the value <em>VAL</em>, where <em>VAL</em> can
+ contain regexp backreferences <code>$N</code> and
+ <code>%N</code> which will be expanded. You can use this
+ flag more than once to set more than one variable. The
+ variables can be later dereferenced in many situations, but
+ usually from within XSSI (via <code>&lt;!--#echo
+ var="VAR"--&gt;</code>) or CGI (<em>e.g.</em>
+ <code>$ENV{'VAR'}</code>). Additionally you can dereference
+ it in a following RewriteCond pattern via
+ <code>%{ENV:VAR}</code>. Use this to strip but remember
+ information from URLs.</li>
