Ubuntu :: Running Apache2 Server As A Different User?
May 4, 2010
I'm a web developer and I make plug-ins for various shopping cart softwares on demand. because of this I'm constantly installing carts and then immediately updating them/modifying them. The problem I'm having is that I'm having to update the permissions manually all the time (every time I copy a new cart into the /var/www folder). Instead of doing this I'd like apache2 to run under my user, so I don't ever have to update the permissions again. How do I do this?

I am running Apache2 on Novell SLES 11. I am using Virtual Hosting for two sites. One site only has a single domain whereas the other site has two domains registered. surrounding my one virtual host with the two domains. I want anyone that point to [URL] gets redirected to [URL]. I am trying to do this for trending but not 100% on how to go about doing this. I've read about mod_rewrite but most of the information I've read about is about a single site running on Apache and not much around Virtual Hosting within Apache. I am currently using Server Alias within my vhost.conf file which allows either [URL] or [URL] to see the site but I really want to redirect [URL] to [URL].

I have had a LAMP setup on my computer for a while without any trouble but I have suddenly become unable to access it through either localhost or my IP address. I have tried removing and reinstalling the packages but it still doesn't work and the /var/log/apache2/error.log does not give me any errors.
Here is my apache2.conf

I'm trying to get Apache to run in a user's home directory. I changed the conf file so that Apache runs under the user and group "kiosk" and changed the DocumentRoot and Directory from the default to "/home/kiosk". Then I set Apache to start at boot (chkconfig --level 235 httpd on) and rebooted. When I checked, httpd is running as kiosk like it should (ps aux | grep httpd). However, when I try wget localhost, I get a 403 response back. If as root I call "httpd -k stop" and then "httpd -k start", then everything works exactly as it should (curiously, if I try using "-k restart", it still doesn't work). After this, httpd still shows as running as kiosk and if I check before calling start, it shows no httpd processes running as expected.
This only happens when I use httpd to stop and then start the web server. If I try to restart using apachectl I still get a 403 error. As an interesting aside, after I've used httpd, if I try using "apachectl restart" I get a "(13)Permission denied: Error retrieving pid file run/httpd.pid" error. This is all on a freshly installed CentOS 5.5 server. Why I'm seeing this very different behaviour from what I thought were just equivalent ways of starting Apache? And then what I could do to get it to start up and run properly on boot? One last item to mention is this isn't a permissions problem. I set the permissions to 777 to both the home and kiosk directories (and 666 to the web files) just to be sure that's not the problem.

In the past, I've installed Internet services as daemons and as xinetd.d with no problems. Those approaches do not meet my needs. And, perhaps, nothing will.
- the service was converted from VB-6 to wxPython. It has a GUI which is accessed with either "remote desktop" or VNC.
- the wxPython service works on Windows and can be accessed from other hosts on my LAN
- the wxPython service works on CentOS and Fedora, but can only be accessed from within the server host. Even from other user-ids. But, I cannot get to it from other hosts.
- ipchains AKA firewall ports are marked for INPUT.
- The server host uses autologin to fire up a useid in group "user". I do not want it running as "root". the .bash_profile fires the service up.
- the service is heavily mult-threaded, and supports devices connected to serial ports asynchronously with the ephemeral port threads (all this works).
There are some programming solutions that I would rather not develop.
- a proxy service that runs under xinetd.d.
- separate the GUI code from the Internet and serial port code. Allocate a "control" port for remote GUI control. a'la SAMBA & SWAT
Is there any hope, that I can run it as is, by doing some network configuration stuff.

I'm new to Ubuntu and wish to use the system in combination with Apache/mySQL/phpMyAdmin. I managed to get phpMyAdmin working for now. Also mySQL database seems to work. Only problem is Apache2. I can start the server and it is working. However in the folder /var/www/ where all site files are stored, I can not edit anything. I have been reading about sudo nautilus which did allow me to change administrator rights for the folder, but still I do not get it working to display other than the default index.html page. Is there a manual or quick solution for me so I can use apache with Ubuntu?

my computer is often very slow, to the point of stalling. I tty'd in and when I ran ps -ef I noticed about 10 /usr/sbin/apache2 -k start I dont even want 1 apache running. Any suggestions why these are running, or how to stop it? Well, I can stop it with a sudo killall, but how can I make sure it doesnt happen again?

I want to password protect say a subdirectory, or a subdomain via vhost, with a username/password, but use the systems users and passwords as logins -> I want go avoid any and all .htaccess... as everyone should be doing anyway How would I go about doing this? I know my way around the apache configs fairly well, so I'm not a total newb -> I now I can use .useraccess and .pwaccess but that's flat file driven, not based off of the systems users/passwords.

I'm running 10.04 with Apache2/PHP5.x I wanted to test some basic cgi scripts, but my browser is displaying the code (#!...) If I run the scripts on the console, they work fine so CGI is not the problem, it's apache. To install the CGI module I ran sudo apt-get install libapache2-mod-perl2 with no problems. By the way, I installed Apache through apt-get instead of doing it manually, but it seems that the installation divides the conf file in different parts, so the regular apache2.conf has this:
Code:
# Include module configuration:
Include /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/*.load
Include /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/*.conf
# Include all the user configurations:
Include /etc/apache2/httpd.conf
# Include ports listing
Include /etc/apache2/ports.conf
[Code]....
I can't figure out what I need to do to get CGI working on my server.

I am new to linux. Currently I am using ubuntu 8.10 desktop operating system. As part of my academic project. I need to configure webserver to access from external. I installed all these using apt-get packages but when it comes to configuration. I am really not understanding. I read some documentation about this configuration but I couldn't get and fully in confused. I formatted my machine 3 times. When I tried to use localhost in firefox its working fine.
1. I need to change port from 80 to 7574. In port.conf I changed, in place of 80. I kept 7574. After that I restart and tried to access but its not working.
2. My admin provide to me. 7574 port to route it into my machine. When the user hits for suppose:
59.160.188.190:7574/project/route.html
It should goes to:
192.168.202.236:7574/project/route.html
Project folder is in /var/www
I wrote the form, to update user vehicle details. They can able to update their details in mysql server from any where.
3. Just I need the application user can access my files and update from their desktop by using path:
59.160.188.190:7574/project
How to update user details (there is no login form is directly visible to every one) in server from their desktop. What I need to configure.

I seem to be having a problem with mod_proxy and https websites. A simple connection to port 80 works fine but all calls to 443 fail.
I had a look at my firewall but can't see anything that would block port 443, although I get no tcpdump traffic on that port on the deb01 client when I try and connect to it. I disabled the firewall but still no luck.
My configuration consists of 3 VMs (KVM) each running a different website.
I get the following error when connecting to ssl deb01
Code: An error occurred during a connection to deb03.example.com.
SSL received a record that exceeded the maximum permissible length.
(Error code: ssl_error_rx_record_too_long)
The following is what can be found on the host

I am having some problems after installing apache2-mpm-itk on my Debian 5.4 server. From my understanding apache2-mpm-itk will run child processes as root until a http request is received. It then suid's to the username in the VirtualHost directive. This is all working fine, as I can see a few apache processes started by a specific user.
However, the problem is when I try to restart apache. It will kill all the processes running by root but wont kill any of the processes that have been suid'ed to another username.
When i attempt to restart I get this error:
Code:
charged:/etc/apache2# /etc/init.d/apache2 restart
Restarting web server: apache2 ... waiting (98)Address already in use: make_sock: could not bind to address [::]:80
(98)Address already in use: make_sock: could not bind to address 0.0.0.0:80
[Code]....
If I do a "ps aux | grep apache" before and after I see all the root processes killed, but processes running as specified users from VritualHost directive remaining.
Now I am not an extreme linux power user, but I know a bit.

I would like to ask how can I optimize apache2 load on my dedicated server. I am hosting Facebook applications on it, but most users will get a Timed Out message when they try to access it. I was tinkering with MaxClients directive in apache2 config, and it got better, but still it's not best. Programmers are trying their best to optimize the applications at their side, but I am afraid this is an server issue.

I want to learn perl CGI. I tried to configure it on apache server. But when I was searching about it in the net, I faced some difficulties. Each and every post has been leaded me in different way. I am confused now. I have done this,
1. Installed this libapache2-mod-perl2 module
2. Then I checked the /etc/apache2/mods-available/ using ls command for checking the module availability.Here I mentioned the output of ls command.

I have a problem about redirection over Apache2 over Debian Lenny. We have build a LAMP, and our programmer make a software with these features:
When you put on your browser (i.e.) [URL], you access to the program in /var/www/vhosts/hugohome/inside. And when you put [URL] you access to the program in /var/www/vhosts/hugohome/outside. Today, if you just put [URL] our Apache answers 403 (forbidden), because we had blocked folder access. (You know....isn't the right way). Our Apache's Document Root is in /var/www/vhosts/hugohome.
Our goal is to change definitely [URL] to access -> /var/www/vhosts/hugohome/inside. This is our main intention. Also, we can continue with [URL] pointing to /var/www/vhosts/hugohome/outside. I thought, hmm easy!: I can change the DocumentRoot to /var/www/vhosts/hugohome/inside and try with an Alias to outside. But the problem is that the programmer has taken the software reference with /var/www/vhosts/hugohome and when I tried to change the Document Root the programs didn't work fine (loops, error 404, etc).
How can I do?. I have tried with Apache with many manners, but I just have a relative success with: "RedirectMatch ^/$ [URL]". It works, but the Browser shows the ugly [URL]. Our intention is just show [URL]. Unfortunately we can't work directly with the DNS servers, and I guess that I can resolve with (i.e.) Apache and Bind together.

why apache2 won't run my shell script i made.So in detail this is what i want it to do. I have a apache2 web-server running on my mac and i found some shell commands that control itunes so i wrote a shell script that basically pause's itunes. Now i have put the shell script in the cgi executable folder. and the link for the webpage is http://10.10.0.110/cgi-bin/itunes.sh but when i goto the page in my browser it just keeps loading. I have run other scripts and they work and i don't think you need root access.

I've given a bit of support using Mod_rewrite to use magical urls to redirect to scripts, but when I migrated to Ubuntu's Apache2... I'm lost. I basically want to rewrite like this:
Code: RewriteRule ^artist/(.+)/$ artist.php?artname=$1 But I noticed that it wasn't passing the artist=$1 to the server GET vars. Then I noticed that if I changed the name of the file in both the rule and the file system to artists.php, typing artist/blah/ no longer was found. So then I realized that if I removed the rewrite rule artist/hello/ would still resolve to artist.php without any parameters my htaccess is like so:

One of my ubuntu 10.04 boxes starts apache2 server automatically at boot. I know from the output of the command:
Code:
sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 status
I can't remember even setting that up, and I don't think it does so by default, since my other box in fact does not even have apache2 server installed. I can stop the server once I login, but is there a way to stop it from automatically starting the server, or even better, completely uninstall the daemon. I tried
Code:
sudo apt-get remove apache2
but that does not work. I guess the daemon is part of some bigger package.
