Re: RequestReadTimeout not being overridden in VirtualHost

[Paul Beckett <paulnorwichuea@xxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks Stefan for explaining this. I hadn't managed to find anything when searching for my problem. Based on the general expectations / docs (https://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/mod/mod_reqtimeout.html), that isn't the behavior I'd have expected.

Do you know if there has been discussion about this being applied at the level of individual virtual host (selected by SSL) rather than the base host?

Returning to the docs page, even with this knowledge, I still can't see anything that makes how this is applied clear, do others think there would be value in requesting the documentation is updated to explicitly define how this applies to virtual hosts?

Thanks,

Paul

mod_reqtimeout uses the setting of the "base" host, not necessarily the virtual host selected by SSL.

The "base" host is usually the first one for the given port. So when you have virtual host A, X, C in
that order in your config, try changing the setting for A.

PS. I find this not intuitive.
