RE: Hiding Apache version info on the Aix server for Apache.

[Mitchell Krog Photography <mitchellkrog@xxxxxxxxx>]

I’ve tested on CentOS 6.8, Apache 2.2.15

Both

ServerTokens PROD

ServerSignature Off

Work perfectly and do not affect the starting of the server. 

Secondly have you actually ever run a configtest?

apachectl configtest

If you copy and paste the the ServerTokens and ServerSignature lines above exactly as I have them they will work. If not then you have messed up something else in your httpd.conf file which is why a configtest is so important.

I attach a very basic httpd.conf which you can try, it’s as basic as it gets.

Regards

Mitchell

Hi,

Below are the entries I have updated in the httpd.conf and tried restarting the apache, but it didn't started and didn't even gave any errors.

$cat /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf | grep -i signature
ServerSignature Off

$ cat /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf | grep -i tokens
ServerTokens Prod

Regards,
Krishna

Thus your edits have an effect. Good.

What are the actual lines, and what was the actual error message?

Check you spelling. Copy-paste from documentation, if possible.

Try to search if other configuration files define those directives.
(The files included into main httpd.conf file with "Include" directive).
