<p>To configure <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_info.html">mod_info</a></code>, add the following to your
36
<code>httpd.conf</code> file.</p>
38
<div class="example"><p><code>
39
<Location /server-info><br />
41
SetHandler server-info<br />
46
<p>You may wish to use <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_access.html">mod_access</a></code> inside the
47
<code class="directive"><a href="../mod/core.html#location"><Location></a></code>
48
directive to limite access to your server configuration
51
<div class="example"><p><code>
52

54
SetHandler server-info<br />

Order deny,allow<br />
57

<p>Once configured, the server information is obtained by

accessing <code>http://your.host.example.com/server-info</code></p>

<h2><a name="security" id="security">Security Issues</a></h2>
78
<p>Once <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_info.html">mod_info</a></code> is loaded into the server, its
79
handler capability is available in <em>all</em> configuration
80
files, including per-directory files (<em>e.g.</em>,
81
<code>.htaccess</code>). This may have security-related
82
ramifications for your site.</p>
84
<p>In particular, this module can leak sensitive information
85
from the configuration directives of other Apache modules such as
86
system paths, usernames/passwords, database names, etc. Therefore,
87
this module should <strong>only</strong> be
88
used in a controlled environment and always with caution.</p>
90
<p>You will probably want to use <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_authz_host.html">mod_authz_host</a></code>
91
to limit access to your server configuration information.</p>
93
<div class="example"><h3>Access control</h3><p><code>
94
<Location /server-info><br />
96
SetHandler server-info<br />
97
Order allow,deny<br />
98
# Allow access from server itself<br />
99
Allow from 127.0.0.1<br />
100
# Additionally, allow access from local workstation<br />
101
Allow from 192.168.1.17<br />

108
<p>By default, the server information includes a list of
109
all enabled modules, and for each module, a description of
110
the directives understood by that module, the hooks implemented
111
by that module, and the relevant directives from the current

<p>Other views of the configuration information are available by
115
appending a query to the <code>server-info</code> request. For
116
example, <code>http://your.host.example.com/server-info?config</code>
117
will show all configuration directives.</p>

134
<p><code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_info.html">mod_info</a></code> provides its information by reading the
135
parsed configuration, rather than reading the original configuration
136
file. There are a few limitations as a result of the way the parsed
137
configuration tree is created:</p>
139
<li>Directives which are executed immediately rather than being
140
stored in the parsed configuration are not listed. These include
141
<code class="directive"><a href="../mod/core.html#serverroot">ServerRoot</a></code>,
142
<code class="directive"><a href="../mod/mod_so.html#loadmodule">LoadModule</a></code>, and
143
<code class="directive"><a href="../mod/mod_so.html#loadfile">LoadFile</a></code>.</li>
144
<li>Directives which control the configuration file itself, such as
145
<code class="directive"><a href="../mod/core.html#include">Include</a></code>,
146
<code class="directive"><a href="../mod/core.html#<ifmodule>"><IfModule></a></code> and
147
<code class="directive"><a href="../mod/core.html#<ifdefine>"><IfDefine></a></code> are not
148
listed, but the included configuration directives are.</li>
149
<li>Comments are not listed. (This may be considered a feature.)</li>
150
<li>Configuration directives from <code>.htaccess</code> files are
151
not listed (since they do not form part of the permanent server
153
<li>Container directives such as
154
<code class="directive"><a href="../mod/core.html#<directory>"><Directory></a></code>
155
are listed normally, but <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_info.html">mod_info</a></code> cannot figure
156
out the line number for the closing
157
<code class="directive"><a href="../mod/core.html#</directory>"></Directory></a></code>.</li>
158
<li>Directives generated by third party modules such as <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_perl.html">mod_perl</a></code>
159
might not be listed.</li>
