<name>mod_info</name>
<description>Provides a comprehensive overview of the server
configuration</description>
<status>Extension</status>
<sourcefile>mod_info.c</sourcefile>
<identifier>info_module</identifier>


<summary>

    <p>To configure <module>mod_info</module>, add the following to your
    <code>httpd.conf</code> file.</p>

<example>
&lt;Location /server-info&gt;<br />
SetHandler server-info<br />
&lt;/Location&gt;<br />
</example>

    <p>You may wish to add a 
    <directive module="core">&lt;Limit&gt;</directive> 
    clause inside the 
    <directive module="core">&lt;location&gt;</directive>
    directive to limit access to your server configuration 
    information.</p>

    <p>Once configured, the server information is obtained by
    accessing <code>http://your.host.dom/server-info</code></p>

    <note>
      Note that the configuration files are read by the
      module at run-time, and therefore the display may
      <em>not</em> reflect the running server's active
      configuration if the files have been changed since the server
      was last reloaded. Also, the configuration files must be
      readable by the user as which the server is running (see the
      <directive module="mpm_common">User</directive> directive), or
      else the directive settings will not be listed.

      <p>It should also be noted that if
      <module>mod_info</module> is compiled into the server, its
      handler capability is available in <em>all</em> configuration
      files, including <em>per</em>-directory files (<em>e.g.</em>,
      <code>.htaccess</code>). This may have security-related
      ramifications for your site.</p>
