All About Apache / Httpd

Baremetal

• Installation

apt install -y apache2

• Configuration on /etc/apache2/

with Docker

• Installation

apt install docker
docker run --name apache -d -p 80:80 httpd

• Configuration

docker exec -it apache bash
cd /usr/local/apache2

Apache VHost

• Baremetal

cd /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/000-default.conf on Baremetal

• Docker

cd /usr/local/apache2/conf/httpd.conf

Uncomment Include conf/extra/httpd-vhosts.conf then,

cd /usr/local/apache2/conf/extra/httpd-vhost.conf

Example Block with 2 Domain & Restrict

• Goal
  • Use one IP for multiple domain.
  • Another domain except declare domain can't access.
  • Can access res/index.html with res.gbesar.com
  • Can access res2/index.html with res.bignetlab.my.id

<VirtualHost *:80>
    ServerName catchall
    <Location />
        Require all denied
    </Location>
</VirtualHost>

<VirtualHost *:80>
    DocumentRoot "/usr/local/apache2/htdocs/res"
    ServerName res.gbesar.com
    ServerAlias www.res.gbesar.com
</VirtualHost>

<VirtualHost *:80>
    DocumentRoot "/usr/local/apache2/htdocs/res2"
    ServerName res.bignetlab.my.id
    ServerAlias www.res.bignetlab.my.id
</VirtualHost>

Another

• Reverse Proxy

  • Activate Module

    sudo a2enmod proxy
    sudo a2enmod proxy_http
    sudo a2enmod proxy_balancer
    sudo a2enmod proxy lbmethod_byrequest
    sudo service apache2 restart
    

  • Activate/Uncomment these 2 module if you run httpd on Docker

    nano /usr/local/apache2/conf/httpd.conf
    

    LoadModule proxy_module modules/mod_proxy.so
    LoadModule proxy_http_module modules/mod_proxy_http.so
    

  • Define on VHost Configuration

    ProxyPass / http://<ip_server>:<port>/
    ProxyPassReverse / http://<ip_server>:<port>/
    

  • Final Block Configuration

    • Goals:
      • Access /hello to access 172.17.0.4 content
      • Access / to access content on /usr/local/apache2/htdocs/res2

    <VirtualHost *:80>
      DocumentRoot "/usr/local/apache2/htdocs/res2"
      ServerName res.bignetlab.my.id
      ServerAlias www.res.bignetlab.my.id
      ProxyPass /hello http://172.17.0.4
      ProxyPassReverse /hello http://172.17.0.4
    </VirtualHost>
