However, if any of the configuration files in this + directory already exist, they will not be overwritten. Instead, the + new copy of the corresponding file will be left with the extension + <code>.default</code>.

These are the same files used to configure the Unix + version, but there are a few different directives for Apache on + Windows. See the <a href="../mod/directives.html">directive index</a> + for all the available directives.</p> + + <p>The main differences in Apache for Windows are:</p> + <ul> + <li><p>Because Apache for Windows is multithreaded, it does not + use a separate process for each request, as Apache does on Unix. + Instead there are usually only two Apache processes running: a + parent process, and a child which handles the requests. Within + the child process each request is handled by a separate thread. + </p> + + <p>The process management directives are also different:</p> + + <p><code class="directive"><a href="../mod/mpm_common.html#maxrequestsperchild">MaxRequestsPerChild</a></code>: + Like the Unix directive, this controls how many requests a single + child process will serve before exiting. However, unlike on Unix, + a single process serves all the requests at once, not just one. + If this is set, it is recommended that a very high number is + used. The recommended default, <code>MaxRequestsPerChild 0</code>, + causes the child process to never exit.</p> + + <div class="warning"><strong>Warning: The server configuration + file is reread when a new child process is started. If you have + modified <code>httpd.conf</code>, the new child may not start or + you may receive unexpected results.</strong></div> + + <p><code class="directive"><a href="../mod/mpm_common.html#threadsperchild">ThreadsPerChild</a></code>: + This directive is new. It tells the server how many threads it + should use. This is the maximum number of connections the server + can handle at once, so be sure to set this number high enough for + your site if you get a lot of hits. The recommended default is + <code>ThreadsPerChild 50</code>.</p></li> + + <li><p>The directives that accept filenames as arguments must use + Windows filenames instead of Unix ones. However, because Apache + uses Unix-style names internally, you must use forward slashes, + not backslashes. Drive letters can be used; if omitted, the drive + with the Apache executable will be assumed.</p></li> + + <li><p>While filenames are generally case-insensitive on + Windows, URLs are still treated internally as case-sensitive + before they are mapped to the filesystem. For example, the + <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/core.html#location"><Location></a></code>, + <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/mod_alias.html#alias">Alias</a></code>, and <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/mod_proxy.html#proxypass">ProxyPass</a></code> directives all use + case-sensitive arguments. For this reason, it is particularly + important to use the <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/core.html#directory"><Directory></a></code> directive when attempting + to limit access to content in the filesystem, since this + directive applies to any content in a directory, regardless of + how it is accessed. If you wish to assure that only lowercase + is used in URLs, you can use something like:</p> + + <div class="example"><p><code> + RewriteEngine On<br /> + RewriteMap lowercase int:tolower<br /> + RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} [A-Z]<br /> + RewriteRule (.*) ${lowercase:$1} [R,L] + </code></p></div></li> + + <li><p>Apache for Windows contains the ability to load modules at + runtime, without recompiling the server. If Apache is compiled + normally, it will install a number of optional modules in the + <code>\Apache2\modules</code> directory. To activate these or + other modules, the new <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/mod_so.html#loadmodule">LoadModule</a></code> + directive must be used. For example, to activate the status + module, use the following (in addition to the status-activating + directives in <code>access.conf</code>):</p> + + <div class="example"><p><code> + LoadModule status_module modules/mod_status.so + </code></p></div> + + <p>Information on <a href="../mod/mod_so.html#creating">creating + loadable modules</a> is also available.</p></li> + + <li><p>Apache can also load ISAPI (Internet Server Application + Programming Interface) extensions (i.e. internet server + applications), such as those used by Microsoft IIS and other + Windows servers. <a href="../mod/mod_isapi.html">More information + is available</a>. Note that Apache <strong>cannot</strong> load + ISAPI Filters.</p></li> + + <li><p>When running CGI scripts, the method Apache uses to find + the interpreter for the script is configurable using the + <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/core.html#scriptinterpretersource">ScriptInterpreterSource</a></code> + directive.</p></li> + + <li><p>Since it is often difficult to manage files with names + like <code>.htaccess</code> in Windows, you may find it useful to + change the name of this per-directory configuration file using + the <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/core.html#accessfilename">AccessFilename</a></code> + directive.</p></li> + + <li><p>Any errors during Apache startup are logged into the + Windows event log when running on Windows NT. This mechanism + acts as a backup for those situations where Apache cannot even + access the normally used <code>error.log</code> file. You can + view the Windows event log by using the Event Viewer application + on Windows NT 4.0, and the Event Viewer MMC snap-in on newer + versions of Windows.</p> + + <div class="note"><strong>Note that there is no startup error logging on + Windows 9x because no Windows event log exists on those operating + systems.</strong></div></li> + </ul> + + </div><div class="top"><a href="#page-header"><img alt="top" src="../images/up.gif" /></a></div> +<div class="section"> +<h2><a name="winsvc" id="winsvc">Running Apache as a Service</a></h2> + + + <p>Apache can be run as a service on Windows NT.

If you run the command</p> + + <div class="example"><p><code> + httpd -n "MyServiceName" -k start + </code></p></div> + + <p>via a shortcut on your desktop, for example, then if the + service starts successfully, a console window will flash up but + it immediately disappears. If Apache detects any errors on startup + such as incorrect entries in the httpd.conf configuration file, + the console window will remain visible. This will display an error + message which will be useful in tracking down the cause of the + problem.</p></li> + + <li><p>Windows 9x does not support <code>NET START</code> or + <code>NET STOP</code> commands. You must control the Apache + service on the command prompt via the <code>-k</code> switches. + </p></li> + + <li><p>Apache and Windows 9x offer no support for running Apache + as a specific user with network privileges. In fact, Windows 9x + offers no security on the local machine, either. This is the + simple reason because of which the Apache Software Foundation + never endorses use of a Windows 9x -based system as a public + Apache server. The primitive support for Windows 9x exists only + to assist the user in developing web content and learning the + Apache server, and perhaps as an intranet server on a secured, + private network.</p></li> + + </ul> + + <p>Once you have confirmed that Apache runs correctly as a + console application you can install, control and uninstall the + pseudo-service with the same commands as on Windows NT. You can + also use the Apache Service Monitor to manage Windows 9x + pseudo-services.</p> + + </div><div class="top"><a href="#page-header"><img alt="top" src="../images/up.gif" /></a></div> +<div class="section"> +<h2><a name="wincons" id="wincons">Running Apache as a Console Application</a></h2> + + + <p>Running Apache as a service is usually the recommended way to + use it, but it is sometimes easier to work from the command line + (on Windows 9x running Apache from the command line is the + recommended way due to the lack of reliable service support.)</p> + + <p>To run Apache from the command line as a console application, + use the following command:</p> + + <div class="example"><p><code> + httpd + </code></p></div> + + <p>Apache will execute, and will remain running until it is stopped + by pressing Control-C.</p> + + <p>You can also run Apache via the shortcut Start Apache in Console + placed to <code>Start Menu --> Programs --> Apache HTTP Server + 2.0.xx --> Control Apache Server</code> during the installation. + This will open a console window and start Apache inside it.

This is <code> + /apache</code> by default, you can verify it by using <code> + apache -V</code> and looking for a value labelled as + <code>HTTPD_ROOT</code>.</li> + </ol> + + <p>During the installation, a version-specific registry key is + created in the Windows registry. The location of this key depends + on the type of the installation. If you chose to install Apache + for all users, the key is located under the + <code>HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE</code> hive, like this (the version + numbers will of course vary between different versions of Apache: + </p> + + <div class="example"><p><code> + HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Apache Group\Apache\2.0.43 + </code></p></div> + + <p>Correspondingly, if you chose to install Apache for the current + user only, the key is located under the <code>HKEY_CURRENT_USER</code> + hive, the contents of which are dependent of the user currently + logged on:</p> + + <div class="example"><p><code> + HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Apache Group\Apache\2.0.43 + </code></p></div> + + <p>This key is compiled into the server and can enable you to test + new versions without affecting the current version. Of course, you + must take care not to install the new version in the same + directory as another version.</p> + + <p>If you did not do a binary install, Apache will in some + scenarios complain about the missing registry key. This warning can + be ignored if the server was otherwise able to find its + configuration file.</p> + + <p>The value of this key is the + <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/core.html#serverroot">ServerRoot</a></code> directory which + contains the <code>conf</code> subdirectory. When Apache starts it + reads the <code>httpd.conf</code> file from that directory. If + this file contains a <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/core.html#serverroot">ServerRoot</a></code> + directive which contains a different directory from the one + obtained from the registry key above, Apache will forget the + registry key and use the directory from the configuration file. If + you copy the Apache directory or configuration files to a new + location it is vital that you update the + <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/core.html#serverroot">ServerRoot</a></code> directive in the + <code>httpd.conf</code> file to reflect the new location.</p> + + </div><div class="top"><a href="#page-header"><img alt="top" src="../images/up.gif" /></a></div> +<div class="section"> +<h2><a name="test" id="test">Testing the Installation</a></h2> + + + <p>After starting Apache (either in a console window or as a + service) it will be listening on port 80 (unless you changed the + <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/mpm_common.html#listen">Listen</a></code> directive in the + configuration files or installed Apache only for the current user). + To connect to the server and access the default page, launch a + browser and enter this URL:</p> + + <div class="example"><p><code> + http://localhost/ + </code></p></div> + + <p>Apache should respond with a welcome page and a link to the + Apache manual. If nothing happens or you get an error, look in the + <code>error.log</code> file in the <code>logs</code> subdirectory. + If your host is not connected to the net, or if you have serious + problems with your DNS (Domain Name Service) configuration, you + may have to use this URL:</p> + + <div class="example"><p><code> + http://127.0.0.1/ + </code></p></div> + + <p>If you happen to be running Apache on an alternate port, you need + to explicitly put that in the URL:</p> + + <div class="example"><p><code> + http://127.0.0.1:8080/ + </code></p></div> + + <p>Once your basic installation is working, you should configure it + properly by editing the files in the <code>conf</code> subdirectory. + Again, if you change the configuration of the Windows NT service + for Apache, first attempt to start it from the command line to + make sure that the service starts with no errors.</p> + + <p>Because Apache <strong>cannot</strong> share the same port with + another TCP/IP application, you may need to stop, uninstall or reconfigure + certain other services before running Apache. These conflicting + services include other WWW servers and some firewall implementations. + </p> + + </div></div> +<div class="bottomlang"> +<p><span>Available Languages: </span><a href="../en/platform/windows.html" title="English"> en </a> | +<a href="../ko/platform/windows.html" hreflang="ko" rel="alternate" title="Korean"> ko </a></p> +</div><div id="footer"> +<p class="apache">Copyright 2009 The Apache Software Foundation.<br />Licensed under the <a href="http://www.apache.org/licenses/LICENSE-2.0">Apache License, Version 2.0</a>.</p> +<p class="menu"><a href="../mod/">Modules</a> | <a href="../mod/directives.html">Directives</a> | <a href="../faq/">FAQ</a> | <a href="../glossary.html">Glossary</a> | <a href="../sitemap.html">Sitemap</a></p></div> +</body></html>
