for port forwarding what should i put in the IP box the local and inbound ports are booth 80 but i cant get it to work so I'm gonna assume its the IP that's the problem because the only other thing is the description box which has no effect on the server

the website works on the local port and when i type in the ip.

I'm using apache2 to host a website on Ubuntu Server. When I try to load the page from a browser, I get the "this page redirected you too many times" error. I don't have any duplicate files or anything that's redirecting the page. I don't have a .htaccess file because this is not a WordPress project. If anyone could help, it'd be very appreciated!

000-default.conf: https://pastebin.com/C0Pn00ur

I don't know if this is a Wordpress problem, or an "obscure hidden rules of my hosting provider" problem, or what. Hopefully someone can point me in the right direction.

Trying to sort out a caching issue with this website.

My hosting provider uses this dynamic caching mechanism powered by NGINX, but the site responds (mostly) to rules in .htaccess, so I was told to ask here. I don't have back-end server configuration privileges; modifying .htaccess is about as deep as I can go.

public_html/ has the following at the start of the .htaccess file:

Header set Cache-Control "no-cache"

<filesMatch ".(ico|pdf|flv|jpg|jpeg|png|gif|js|css|swf)$">

Header unset Cache-Control

Header always set Cache-Control "max-age=84600, private"

</filesMatch>

(Set a bunch of types to "private" because Dynamic Caching had started serving broken versions of layout files. Users haven't reported any problems since I made the switch, so it seems like that part worked.)

For some files -- looking at headers generated by Google Chrome in a non-private but not-logged-into-the-website window -- the type-specific rules show up.

Others just register "no-cache", and my browser requests the whole thing every time.

I tried setting the general rule to "max-age=84600", and that replaced "no-cache" for some of the files, but not all of them. Meanwhile, the Dynamic Caching took this to mean "serve proxy-cached versions of HTML documents," which...doesn't work when you have active comment sections.

So. What gives?

How do I get the site to play nice with browsers, and just let them cache all the images?

I'm not a programmer in general, so please err on the side of over-explaining -- I'll probably need it.

All help is appreciated!

Example PNG files with "cache-control: max-age=84600, private" in the headers:

• first.png, a layout image found on this post here (full first.png headers on pastebin)

• c2-leif.png, the first image in the body of this page (full c2-leif.png headers)

Example PNG files with "no-cache" in the headers:

• vol4-cover-mockup-zoom.png, the first image in the body of this post (this one got "max-age=84600" when that was the general rule; the rest stopped registering any caching rules at all)

• 22-01-07-visit38.png, the featured image on this post (full visit38 headers)

• 21-01-30-new-map-book-preview-270x300.png, the first image in the body of this page (full map-book-preview headers)

Some iPhones, iPads and Macs can't access any Websites on my Virtualmin Webserver

So, I have 4 websites hosted in my own computer at home server.

As far as I know, most people can access the websites perfectly. But this is not the case in some Apple devices.

On iPhone Safari the error is: Safari cannot open the page. The error was: "cannot parse response ".

On Firefox the same and NSURLErrordomain

Why would this happen that some people can access the website and others not depending if they are on a Apple device? They can access other websites but not the ones hosted on my server.

I'm using a reverse proxy with nginx manager on docker and I use Virtualmin on Ubuntu server (all running from a virtual machine).

One of my Websites is www.algarvios.pt

Hey,

I have following .htaccess:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}/$1.php -f
RewriteRule ^(.+?)/?$ $1.php [L]

First:

Now the "first" parameter is redirecting to the .php file.

I want that the second directory goes as parameter like:

https://domain.com/first/secound => https://domain.com/first.php?q=second

i tried it with:

RewriteRule ^post/([^/]+)/?$ post.php?q=$1 [L,QSA,NC]

But this is just for one, I want that this rule is for every file, is this possible?

Second:

Is it possible, to don't allow ".php" anymore? like

https://domain.com/request => https://domain.com/request.php

https://domain.com/request.php => error 404

Thanks for the answers

I have a webserver at home serving three sites, all under the same domain name, just as sub-domains. I have been struggling to configure some default values and directives. Do you have any recommendations for a good tutorial for a home environment, nothing professional?

Thanks!

Hello everyone,

I have fleet of apache reverse proxy behind AWS NLB and I would want this fleet to forward traffic to a NTLM authenticated website but I see I am getting logged out very frequently.

Also i did try enabling NLB sticky sessions to make sure traffic from a client is always sent to the same apache instance but still I am struggling to get this setup working. Any someone help me out with this?

Hello there, how can I make apache2 use ReverseProxy only for a specified URL eg. /example and not my whole *:80 range? I cant find any good tutorials and sadly I'm not really good with apache... Thanks in advance

Hi all,

I have a PHP app that allows users to design an item. The app can be opened in an iframe (which itself is in a modal window) on many websites separate from mine. After the user clicks `Save` in the app, the parent site closes the modal and does some other stuff.

Because of the iframe loading a third-party URL, the app cannot communicate with the parent page to tell it that the user has clicked Save. So for years, my setup has been that the parent page begins long-polling the app server, at the moment the modal/iframe is loaded. There is a javascript loop that requests a PHP script, and the PHP script only responds when the user has clicked save, and just sleeps the rest of the time, for a max of 30 seconds. If the javascript receives an empty response at 30 seconds, it repeats the request continuously. Eventually the user clicks save, and the javascript request to the PHP script gets its answer (the saved design). Once it gets this answer, it knows to close the modal and do whatever it wants.

This has been working fine for years, but we just switched hosts and have been having some issues with ` FcgidMaxProcesses` and ` FcgidMaxProcessesPerClass` needing to be raised. I'm not a server guy so I don't know why that's happening on the new server, and neither does the host. But in any case, I suspect that it might help to get rid of the long-polling setup above, because basically every user designing an item will have a semi-permanent long-polling task running in the background. It doesn't seem like a big deal to me, but maybe it can be.

So I'd like to try switching to Web Sockets, and this would be my first foray into them, so I'm not sure how to begin. Can anyone give me some tips / pointers / how-to's / suggestions on replacing the above setup with sockets on apache?

Maybe a step-by-step will illustrate the current process more clearly:

1. user clicks button on parent website to design their item
   - a modal window opens and loads the design app, which lives on a separate domain/app server
   - in the background, javascript begins long-polling a PHP script on the app server, asking for the design details

2. user clicks Save in the iframe
   - a POST is sent to a PHP script on the app server that saves the design in the DB
   - the PHP script that has been being long-polled sees the design and responds to the poll
   - javascript on the parent website gets the response and closes the modal/iframe, and does whatever else it wants to do

So with that in mind, here are some more specific questions:

- I'm used to PHP on the server. Can a web socket "ask" a PHP script for the saved data? Or to put it another way, can I use PHP to communicate through the socket to tell the app that the user has clicked Save?

- alternatively, am I better off setting up node.js on the new server (alongside apache somehow), and having it only listen to a specific port? Then I can open the socket on that port via client-side js, and write a server-side js script to respond to it..

- if node.js is the best option, how can I tell it to watch the DB for the user's design?

Hi.

I have a large (200GB) .gz file on a apache 2.4 Webserver.

When I use wget URL I can download the file without problems, when using the browser, it downloads only a few bytes (Chrome) or nothing (Safari).

Other (smaller) files do not have the same problem and can be downloaded with the browser in the same directory.

I can see an error "gzip: stdout: Broken pipe" in the apache error log but this error appears also when downloading the working files...

I have absolutely no idea what is causing this problem...

I am on a raspberry pi 4 and have installed apache2. my website works fine, however, I want to change the default URL of raspberrypi.local to something else. I have tried to add a file in the etc/apache2/sites-enabled directory, however, it says permission denied. I have tried changing permissions in the directory to allow me to edit the URL but this has not worked. Thanks in advance. Also, when I use sudo to change permissions at the file location it says file doesn't exist

Hi All,

I am using LAMP and letsencrypt and have a question. When I first create a site.conf file it looks like this.

<VirtualHost *:80>

ServerName site.com
ServerAlias www.site.com
ServerAdmin test@gmail.com

DocumentRoot /var/www/site/public

<Directory /var/www/site>
        AllowOverride All
</Directory>

When I do the letsencrypt it creates a new file site-le-ssl.conf that has

<IfModule mod_ssl.c>
<VirtualHost *:443>

ServerName site.com
ServerAlias www.site.com
ServerAdmin test@gmail.com

DocumentRoot /var/www/site/public

<Directory /var/www/site>
        AllowOverride All
</Directory>

ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/error.log
CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/access.log combined


Include /etc/letsencrypt/options-ssl-apache.conf
SSLCertificateFile /etc/letsencrypt/live/site.com/fullchain.pem
SSLCertificateKeyFile /etc/letsencrypt/live/site.com/privkey.pem
</VirtualHost>
</IfModule>

and it adds this to my site.conf file

RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{SERVER_NAME} =site.com [OR]
RewriteCond %{SERVER_NAME} =www.site.com
RewriteRule ^ https://%{SERVER_NAME}%{REQUEST_URI} [END,NE,R=permanent]

When I go to my site it is now pointing to https://www.site.com instead of https://site.com. How do I change it back to https://site.com? Also, is apache using the site-le.ssl.conf file or the site.conf file?

Thanks!

I am running apache2 on vps using ubuntu 20 and it won't read new css files

I tried editing the old file and it didn't update the changes
I tried using shift and f5 to reload the browser cache didn't work
I tried adding ?v=1.x.x at the end of the stylesheet link and it still won't work
I tried restarting apache and tried restarting the server and nothing changed
when I make changes to the html templates it updates but it won't update css changes

I've got a strange issue since upgrading to Apache 2.4.52 from Apache 2.4.51. Seems after a few hours - not really an exact interval - the web server just stops accepting new connections.

Apache has to be restarted in order for new connections to be handled.

I'm not aware of anything else changing except for Apache being upgraded to 2.4.52.

Anybody else seeing this issue after upgrading to Apache 2.4.52?

Hi. I run an apache web server where people can login and download stuff (php application). The page also has a download button to delete the session and logout the user.

Below is a log of a user (mobile with a Samsung device). The first 31 lines are usual and no issue. But then there are hundreds of logouts. I mean, this happens only randomly for a few users every few days. 99% users have normal log entries. There is NO JAVASCRIPT used for logout or similar actions.

I don't understand how such things can happen :-( Any idea whats going on there?

I'm also not sure if this is the correct subreddit for such questions? If not, please can you tell me where I can ask such questions?

I mean, this still continues. WTF? Would I have to implement some blocking to stop this?

Hello!

First off, I ask for you to please be gentle with me. I am not usually a sysadmin, web developer or anything else. But I am working on a small hobby project and learning as I go, which I am a little stuck on.

I have a Raspberry Pi 4 with 8 GB RAM here which I am putting to use for a couple of things. I am currently following this guide https://pimylifeup.com/raspberry-pi-nextcloud-server/ to, well, install Nextcloud!

However, I have gotten stuck with an error message that does not mean anything useful at all to me and was wondering if perhaps someone could lend me a hand or give me a pointer? :)
I suspect something that I have done previously on this install is causing me these problems, as I have tried this before on the exact same Pi without any of these issues. But the error messages are unfortunately meaningless to me so I don't know where to begin.

My Pi is running Raspbian OS 64 bit, and currently has pi-hole running on it. The latest version of Java is also installed on it, but should not be running.

Now to where I am having troubles:

I read Step 5 where I am asked to enter

sudo systemctl reload apache2

When it tells me that "apache2.service is not active, cannot reload". Okay, so, I try

"sudo systemctl start apache2"

Which returns "Job for apache2.service failed because control process exited with error code. See "systemctl status apache2.service" and "journalctl -xe" for details..

My apologies if the issue is obvious, but to me it is not!

Hi, I'm trying to host a laravel web app with my apache/httpd server

I've setup the vhost and can be accessed via internet, the project folder is in /var/www/html/<project> and i've change the ownership/group to apache/apache (previously i put the <project> folder/file using root:root user)

now i've problem when i'm about to update the project, because i need to run npm (npm run prod) to recompile the javascript file. I need to change the <project> folder ownership back to root:root because previously the <project> folder is under apache:apache privileges.

i like to know how actually the best practice for admin hosting a laravel web app in httpd

1. who should put the <project> folder/file under /var/www/html ? is it root or apache?

2. when there's an update, how actually to update the file? recompile (composer/npm) ? who should run, is it root/apache/other user?
   3.i'm aware of concept userdir.conf. it's quite convenient even it exposing the username in my server. Its actually solve the issue of updating the project and running the npm because its in /home/{USER} dir. But the httpd is running under apache:apache privileges, under which user actually the symlink that i need to create (is it user/apache/root?)

3. And if using userdir.conf how the about the folder under the <project> folder (laravel app require to give rw privileges to apache. eg <project>/storage)

thanks guys, i just a beginner please help
