errors.conf
Denes how Apache responds to errors. To customize these messages for all virtual
hosts, edit this le. Otherwise overwrite these directives in your virtual host con-
gurations.
httpd.conf
The main Apache server conguration le. Avoid changing this le. It primarily
contains include statements and global settings. Overwrite global settings in the
pertinent conguration les listed here. Change host-specic settings (such as
document root) in your virtual host conguration.
listen.conf
Binds Apache to specic IP addresses and ports. Name-based virtual hosting is
also congured here. For details, see Section “Name-Based Virtual Hosts”
(page 450).
magic
Data for the mime_magic module that helps Apache automatically determine the
MIME type of an unknown le. Do not change.
mime.types
MIME types known by the system (this actually is a link to /etc/mime.types).
Do not edit. If you need to add MIME types not listed here, add them to mod_mime
-defaults.conf.
mod_*.conf
Conguration les for the modules that are installed by default. Refer to Sec-
tion 28.4, “Installing, Activating, and Conguring Modules” (page 463) for details.
Note that conguration les for optional modules reside in the directory conf.d.
server-tuning.conf
Contains conguration directives for the different MPMs (see Section 28.4.4,
“Multiprocessing Modules” (page 467)) as well as general conguration options
that control Apache's performance. Properly test your Web server when making
changes here.
ssl-global.conf and ssl.*
Global SSL conguration and SSL certicate data. Refer to Section 28.6, “Setting
Up a Secure Web Server with SSL” (page 473) for details.
