Or just don't use <IfModule> in your own configuration. The only real reason to use it is in example configurations for other people, where you don't know if a given module has been loaded. If you're configuring your own server, presumably you intend for that module to be loaded. Better to have the server fail to start if you've left out the LoadModule than appear to be working but completely ignoring all the configuration inside <IfModule>. --------------------------------------------------------------------- The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.
