<h2><a name="Description" id="Description">Description</a></h2>
39
<p>A brief description of the purpose of the module.</p>
40
</div><div class="top"><a href="#page-header"><img alt="top" src="../images/up.gif" /></a></div>
42
<h2><a name="Status" id="Status">Status</a></h2>
44
<p>This indicates how tightly bound into the Apache Web server
45
the module is; in other words, you may need to recompile the
46
server in order to gain access to the module and its
47
functionality. Possible values for this attribute are:</p>
52
<dd>A module with status "MPM" is a <a href="../mpm.html">Multi-Processing Module</a>. Unlike the
53
other types of modules, Apache must have one and only one MPM
54
in use at any time. This type of module is responsible for
55
basic request handling and dispatching.</dd>
59
<dd>A module labeled as having "Base" status is compiled and
60
loaded into the server by default, and is therefore normally
61
available unless you have taken steps to remove the module
62
from your configuration.</dd>
66
<dd>A module with "Extension" status is not normally compiled
67
and loaded into the server. To enable the module and its
68
functionality, you may need to change the server build
69
configuration files and re-compile Apache.</dd>
73
<dd>"Experimental" status indicates that the module is
74
available as part of the Apache kit, but you are on your own
75
if you try to use it. The module is being documented for
76
completeness, and is not necessarily supported.</dd>
80
<dd>Modules which are not included with the base Apache
81
distribution ("third-party modules") may use the "External"
82
status. We are not responsible for, nor do we support such
85
</div><div class="top"><a href="#page-header"><img alt="top" src="../images/up.gif" /></a></div>
87
<h2><a name="SourceFile" id="SourceFile">Source File</a></h2>
89
<p>This quite simply lists the name of the source file which
90
contains the code for the module. This is also the name used by
91
the <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/core.html#ifmodule"><IfModule></a></code>
93
</div><div class="top"><a href="#page-header"><img alt="top" src="../images/up.gif" /></a></div>
95
<h2><a name="ModuleIdentifier" id="ModuleIdentifier">Module Identifier</a></h2>
97
<p>This is a string which identifies the module for use in the
98
<code class="directive"><a href="../mod/mod_so.html#loadmodule">LoadModule</a></code> directive when
99
dynamically loading modules. In particular, it is the name of
100
the external variable of type module in the source file.</p>

103
<h2><a name="Compatibility" id="Compatibility">Compatibility</a></h2>
105
<p>If the module was not part of the original Apache version 2
106
distribution, the version in which it was introduced should be
107
listed here. In addition, if the module is limited to
108
particular platforms, the details will be listed here.</p>
