Web Server Overview

Which web server? Apache, boa, AOLServer.

Let's assume Apache for our purposes. It's the most popular web server on the public internet, with more sites served than all other web servers combined.

Different categories of files:

  • configuration - /etc/httpd, /etc/apache
  • web pages - /var/www
  • logs - /var/log/httpd, /var/log/apache

Static pages vs. cgi vs. server extensions.

Startup, shutdown. /usr/sbin/apachectl

Good server hygeine

  • Check logs: access logs, error logs
  • Keep up with patches
