[users@httpd] Apache 1.3 or Apache 2 with prefork

[Wee Teck Neo <sl...@msn.com>]

It is recommended to run PHP module with prefork under Apache 2, but if 
thats the case.... should I use Apache 1.3 instead since it is also a 
prefork model?

Any better performance in Apache 2 as compared to Apache 1.3 with prefork?

Any comments?

Cheers


           Neo

Lots of things have changed in apache 2 other than threading.  See
http://httpd.apache.org/docs-2.0/new_features_2_0.html
for a partial list.

But I have heard a report that php+apache1.3 is faster than
php+apache2+prefork.  I haven't tested it myself, so your mileage may
vary.

Not natively afaik, although I believe you can use perl in your apache 
config files if you have mod_perl loaded.  See the mod_perl site for
more info:

http://perl.apache.org/

There's also a module called 'mod_macro' that allows you to define
macros and then use them throughout the configuration file.  The only
link I have to mod_macro is:

http://www.coelho.net/mod_macro/

PS When you post a new topic, please don't reply to an old post - it
messes up the threading :P

[users@httpd] Our own variables in httpd.conf

[Rajeev Rajan <rr...@qualcomm.com>]

Is it possible to create and use our own variables in the httpd.conf ?

i.e. I wish to create a variable say, myIPAddr, which I can set in the 
httpd.conf file in the beginning....and in other constructs like 
NameVirtualHost,  <VirtualHost ..> etc, I can reference it.

Otherwise, if my machine migrates to another network, and gets a new IP, I 
need to do a find and replace with the new IP address in the entire httpd.conf.

Thanks in advance,
Rajeev
