Tuning LAMP systems, Part 1

jason — Thu, 18 Nov 2010 05:33:54 +0000

Linux, Apache, MySQL and PHP (or Perl) is the basis for many Web applications – from to-do list to blog, then e-commerce site. WordPress and Pligg are two high-capacity Web site to support a common package. This architecture referred to as LAMP. Almost every Linux release contains Apache, MySQL, PHP and Perl, so installing LAMP software is very easy.

Install the misleading simplicity of the software run smoothly on their own, but it is not the case. Finally, application load will exceed the set comes with back-end server processing power, application performance will be reduced. LAMP installation requires constant monitoring,… Read the rest

Apache Supports Multiple SSL on Single IP Address

jason — Mon, 15 Mar 2010 12:46:47 +0000

With the release of Apache 2.2.12, we can now configure multiple SSL sites in one IP address. It is available of you have Server Name Indication (SNI) extension for OpenSSL. Visit TechRepublic’s post on “Configure Apache to support multiple SSL sites on a single IP address” for details and vhost sample configuration. And for complete reference please refer to this page “SSL with Virtual Hosts Using SNI” and Apache mod_ssl documentation.

We’ll try this on our server and hopefully offer this to our shared hosting clients who wants SSL but not interested in paying extra for a… Read the rest

Apache KeepAlive Timeout Tunning

jason — Mon, 22 Feb 2010 12:01:59 +0000

Many of our readers are asking what KeepAliveTimeout setting should be used for Apache config. We usually select 2 to 5 seconds as it provides best performance for sites with medium visitors and prefer to use Nginx or any other front-end proxy to better manage thousands of multiple concurrent users.

How To Disable Apache the HTTP TRACE method

jason — Thu, 10 Sep 2009 09:29:04 +0000

Description: How to disable the HTTP TRACE method on recent apache versions.

Most vulnerability scanners (like the popular nessus, but commercial ones also) will complain (normally as a low thread or warning level) about TRACE method being enabled on the web server tested.

Normally you will have this enabled by default, but if you want to test if it is really enabled on your server you just have to telnet on the port your web server is running and request for “TRACE / HTTP/1.0” if you get a positive reply it means TRACE is enabled on your system. The output… Read the rest

Stopping and Restarting Apache

jason — Tue, 14 Jul 2009 13:20:12 +0000

This document covers stopping and restarting Apache on Unix only.

You will notice many httpd executables running on your system, but you should not send signals to any of them except the parent, whose pid is in the PidFile. That is to say you shouldn’t ever need to send signals to any process except the parent. There are three signals that you can send the parent: TERM, HUP, and USR1, which will be described in a moment.

To send a signal to the parent you should issue a command such as:

    kill -TERM `cat /usr/local/apache/logs/httpd.pid`

Optimizing Apache and PHP

jason — Mon, 06 Jul 2009 10:49:28 +0000

Linux, Apache, MySQL, and PHP (or Perl) form the basis of the LAMP architecture for Web applications. Many open source packages based on LAMP components are available to solve a variety of problems. As the load on an application increases, the bottlenecks in the underlying infrastructure become more apparent in the form of slow response to user requests. The previous article showed you how to tune the Linux system and covered the basics of LAMP and performance measurement. This article focuses on the Web server components, Apache and PHP.

Apache is a highly configurable piece of software. It… Read the rest

Compiling Apache for Microsoft Windows

jason — Sun, 28 Jun 2009 11:17:32 +0000

There are many important points before you begin compiling Apache. See Using Apache with Microsoft Windows before you begin.

Compiling Apache requires Microsoft Visual C++ 5.0 or 6.0 to be properly installed. It can be built with command-line tools, or within the Visual Studio environment. Consult the VC++ manual to determine how to install them. Be especially aware that the vcvars32.bat file from the Program Files/DevStudio/VC/bin folder, and the setenv.bat file from the Platform SDK, may be required to prepare the command-line tools for command-line builds (e.g. using nmake). To install apache with the Makefile.win or the InstallBin project… Read the rest
