Hi there We currently use Apache 2.4.12 (Win32) with PHP 5.6.10 and need to upgrade. I am working on getting Apache 2.4.62 running but have a problem with the named virtual hosts which work fine under 2.4.12. The web pages for these hosts are being
placed into my Downloads folder instead of being displayed. Troubleshooting: I had to make adjustments in my vhosts.conf file, removing some directives in the <Directory> blocks which are no longer valid. It appears to be the case that the top Server root has to defined as follows Define SRVROOT "c:/Apache24" ServerRoot "${SRVROOT}" This made me wonder if I needed to replace “c:/Apache” in DocumentRoot specifications with “${SRVROOT}”, but this made no difference and the Apache docs don’t indicate this is required. The web pages still get placed in my Downloads folder. In 2.4.13 you have to use the NameVirtualHost directive in httpd.conf but this has no effect in 2.4.62, as an error message reported, so I commented it out. I tried extensive searching of Google, but the only thing I found that was pertinent was this post which went unanswered. I have not found anything in the virtual host setup documentation, such as https://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/vhosts/examples.html which gives me any clues as to why the web pages are being downloaded instead of displayed. I have sent an email to users-faq@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx to find if there is a FAQ that might reference this issue. The response was: “Hi! This is the ezmlm program. I'm managing the
users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx mailing list. FAQ - Frequently asked questions of the
users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx list. None available yet.” I searched in Google's usenet for virtual host and apache 2.4.62 but nothing related to this issue shows up. I tried to see if anything related to the subject “virtualhost” was referenced in the archive for this list using this email and got this response “-----Original Message----- From: users-help@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx <users-help@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Do not click links or open attachments unless you recognize the sender and know the content is safe. Sorry, that message is not in the archive.” I even thought that perhaps the vhosts were not being set up at all, so I tried to telnet to each on port 80. They exist! Each host is set up like the below in vhosts.conf. Some have a Serveralias specified, otherwise identical to the below. <VirtualHost *:80> Servername localhost DocumentRoot "C:/Apache24/htdocs" <IfModule dir_module> DirectoryIndex index.phtml index.php index.html </IfModule> ErrorLog "c:/Apache24/logs/localhost_error.log" CustomLog "c:/Apache24/logs/localhost_access.log" combined <Directory "c:/Apache24/htdocs"> AllowOverride AuthConfig Options Limit Options None </Directory> </virtualHost> I’ve used Apache, on both Linux and Windows boxes for many years and have never come across thi issue. Is it a bug in version 2.4.62? Am I just brain-dead and missing something obvious? Any help is appreciated! |
