Apache Calls On HTTP GETS And PUTS
Mar 3, 2007Does anyone know if there is an Apache directive where you can have Apache call a script on HTTP PUTs to a specific location and also for HTTP GETs?

Offline Courtesy Calls
May 21, 2008We've been kicking around the idea here of beginning courtesy calls to self-managed clients whose servers become unreachable by simple ICMP. I imagine most of our self-managed server clients don't know it, but we actually monitor about all of these servers already as to more easily track if there are any issues effecting just a small segment of our network; and we we certainly have the resources with people at our main office watching those monitors at all hours, so one starts to wonder- why not just let clients take advantage of that?
As logic would have it, we're getting a phone call anyway if a server becomes unreachable by SSH or RDP; and really, despite the fact that just about every hosting review I see is 95% talking about how fast they got their initial service.. the amount of time they can keep their server is working seems to be what's really important to people, so why not give an admin a head-start on an issue by having someone at the data center call you?
We thought about that question a lot, and started to realize there are quite a lot of assumptions we were making. For example- what if it's just a dev server; do you really want a call at 3 AM to let you know a script went in infinite loop? Or you have a firewall up that doesn't respond to ping? (we'd only call once before taking note, but all the same). What about our server resellers that are just disabling a power port until they have a new client?
Then the idea of allowing clients to choose at signup comes into play- and we don't really want to set high monitoring expectations on self-managed servers. We understand that a good % of clients know what they're doing and can take care of their own server administration well, but a good % more would be posting a 10 page thread flaming us right here and all over the internet about how we ruined their life by not restarting their software daemon on a server that we don't even record root access to (that genre of general discussion is already a pretty popular one on this board without us arbitrarily raising self-managed server expections).
Anyway, if it were your server, what would you want a provider to do?
Apache :: Capturing Internal Apache Errors Return Custom HTTP Status
Nov 15, 2013Server Version: Apache/2.2.22 (Unix)
On our production service, we've been getting numerous malformed POST requests to some of our CGI scripts that are showing up as 500 errors in our logs. They are malformed in the sense that the actual content length doesn't match the Content-Length specified in the request.
Here's the most trivial example I can come up with that reproduces the problem for us:
POST /some_valid_alias HTTP/1.1
Host: example.org
User-Agent: Arbitrary/1.0
Content-Type: multipart/form-data; boundary=---------------------------41184676334
Content-Length: 769
-----------------------------41184676334
In addition to the 500 error in the access log, we see the corresponding error in the error log:
(70014)End of file found: Error reading request entity data
Based on the nature of the POST request and the error response, it does appear that Apache is doing the right thing here.
The POST never actually makes it as far as the script being targeted (/some_valid_alias in the above example); in other words, Apache returns 500 to the client, writes the error to the error log and never executes the script.
Is there a way to capture/avoid internal Apache errors like 70014, and return some other HTTP status besides 500 (like 403)? It's particularly annoying in our case, because our server sends us an email for all 500 errors.
So far, our best "defense" against these 500 errors is to disallow POST for these aliases, which normally just ignore the POST data anyway (when the request is not malformed):
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_METHOD} ^POST$
RewriteRule ^/(some_valid_alias)(.*)$ $1$2 [R]
But this won't work for all our scripts, because in some cases we do want to permit POST.
Rule (htaccess?) That Prevents Stealing Of Graphics And Puts Another Graphic In Place
Feb 6, 2007I have a question regarding people who are stealing content off my site (using the same URL of my site). I would like to make a rule (in .htaccess, I imagine) that does the following:
If the graphic is placed on the desired domain, put the correct graphic in place.
If the graphic is placed on another domain (stolen), put a 'substitute' graphic in place that says that the content was stolen.
I know you can do something along these lines (I used to have an .htaccess that prevented people from linking to pages outside of designated domains) but I'm not sure if you can narrow it down much more. However, it would rock if it was possible.
Apache HTTP Flooding
Aug 15, 2007Someone seems to be flooding our HTTP server somehow. We use the latest version of Apache on Windows.
Is there any Windows modules that can filter the total amount of IP connections, or something built into Windows that could filter this?

Oct 9, 2012Suddenly on a particular website (possibly following an easyapache php minor version update) if I specify a folder rather than a specific file I get a 503 response.
If I do the same on https it's ok. But http always gets a 503.
If I specify a file it's fine, but the folder always hits a 503.
I have removed the htaccess file and php.ini to rule that out and indeed they weren't factors - it seems like it goes wrong before reading the htaccess file.

Apache :: Redirecting From HTTP To HTTPS
May 4, 2015I keep hearing that redirecting from http to https is not very secure [non-SSL to SSL]. Among other reasons, one reason is that the browser may continue to think it is communicating with non secure server and may not encrypt the data. Is it true? I hope not, I am using the following -
<VirtualHost 12.34.567.89:80>

Mar 29, 2013The problem is that HTTP file download speed is nearly 10 times lower than FTP download speed. What could be limiting it? It's about 7Mb for FTP and 70-100Kb for HTTP. Strangely, download speed is OK when browsing from the server itself (e.g. via RDP)

Mar 13, 2015I want to run an HTML webpage that accesses an MP3 resource that's also on my website. However, I only want the webpage to have access to the file and block access from those attempting to access the file directly. That leaves me with two options:
1. Block access through the Apache configuration so that only my Webserver can access the resource, or
2. Hide the URL in the code.
How I can go about doing this?
Apache :: HTTP Over SSL System - Authentication Authority
Oct 6, 2013I have to create a structure in which there is a client, a server and an authentication authority.
The authentication authority verifies the identity of both the client and server before they can communicate, so that the client can access the content offered by the server. Everything must be made using HTTP with SSL (HTTPS).
For now I have installed xampp on my pc with ubuntu, I performed the initial configuration and was able to view a test page locally hosted by entering the URL of the virtual server "www.server.it" (added to the configuration of apache2).

Apache :: In ARM System 2.4.6 Http Can't Work When Https Is On
Mar 13, 2015Apache2.4.6
apr-1.4.8
openssl-1.0.1c
arm-linux-gcc4.4.4
Recently I cross compiled Apache2.4.6 to run in my ARM cpu, and I found that http can work well if only it's own port such as 80 is listened, but if add one more port to be listened in conf file, http fails. That means http is good, but after https is on, http stop working and https is good. At the same time, I built the same apache2.4.6 in X86 gcc4.6.1, http and https can both work well. In addition, I also tried apache1.3.33 in the same ARM system, http and https can work well too. It seems like that in apache2.4.6, http can't work well if there is one more port listened in ARM system. Actually http port is listening and is established when using netstat to monitor it.

Apache :: Rewriting URL From HTTP To HTTPS With Reverse Proxy
Mar 10, 2015I am using an apache reverse proxy :
httpd -version
Server version: Apache/2.2.15 (Unix)
Server built: Oct 16 2014 14:48:21
In front of an internet liferay server, I m forcing https connexion and my reverse proxy is the SSL endpoint, and it is working fine.
But inside the liferay page there are "http" link to other webserver, and browser are refusing to load them because they are http and not https.
Is there a way in the reverse proxy to rewrite "on the fly" "http" link to "https" so that everything would be load on the browser ?
I was thinking mod_proxy_html but it doesn't seams to do what I want.

View 1 Replies View RelatedApache :: Unable To Set Up Password Protection On HTTP Server
Apr 24, 2014I'm trying to set up password protection on an Apache HTTP server, and it's not working.
First, the environment: Apache 2.4.4 installed with XAMPP Control Panel 3.2.1 under Windows 7 Professional.
http.config says "AllowOverride All."
The .htaccess file in the protected directory says:
Code:
htpasswd -c .htpasswd samples
htpasswd prompted me for the password twice, and I entered it twice. When it quit I had a file named .htpasswd in the subsidy directory. I typed it and its contents looked correct according to the examples I've seen.
Then I restarted Apache and tried to load a page from the directory. The browser simply prompted me for the username and password over and over.
The Apache error log says, "AH01617: user samples: authentication failure for "/subsidy/filename.html": Password Mismatch."
I deleted the .htpasswd file and ran htpasswd again, specifying a different (very simple) password. I also confirmed that caps lock was not on both before and after. I restarted the server, tried to load a page, and got the same problem.
Apache seems to think I'm entering the wrong password, but that seems impossible when I've just defined it myself -- and I've tried twice, intentionally choosing a very simple password the second time. If the message means what it says, the cause must be something very different from the obvious one.
Apache Standalone With Adobe HTTP Dynamic Streaming
Mar 1, 2013I have been trying to install apache server on a windows pc which will deliver adobe HDS content. there is a specific tutorial for this in the adobe site, can be found here. I have been following it to the word, but when I try to start apache after asking it to load new modules (mod_f4fhttp), it returns me an error saying that the file is not readable/not found. I have installed the proper visual c++ libraries and also checked the permissions and spellings. This seems to be a common error with php modules in apache, but none of the solutions seems to work.
