Apache HTTP Server (also called Apache HTTPD, or simply Apache) is a widely used web server. This Puppet module simplifies the task of creating configurations to manage Apache servers in your infrastructure. It can configure and manage a range of virtual host setups and provides a streamlined way to install and configure Apache modules.

on FreeBSD and Gentoo
On Gentoo, this module depends on the gentoo/puppet-portage
Puppet module. Note that while several options apply or enable certain features and settings for Gentoo, it is not a supported operating system for this module.
Warning: This module modifies Apache configuration files and directories and purges any configuration not managed by Puppet. Apache configuration should be managed by Puppet, as unmanaged configuration files can cause unexpected failures.
To temporarily disable full Puppet management, set the
purge_configs
parameter in theapache
class declaration to false. We recommend this only as a temporary means of saving and relocating customized configurations.
To have Puppet install Apache with the default parameters, declare the apache
class:
class { 'apache': }
When you declare this class with the default options, the module:
- Installs the appropriate Apache software package and required Apache modules for your operating system.
- Places the required configuration files in a directory, with the default location Depends on operating system.
- Configures the server with a default virtual host and standard port ('80') and address ('*') bindings.
- Creates a document root directory Depends on operating system, typically
/var/www
. - Starts the Apache service.
Apache defaults depend on your operating system. These defaults work in testing environments but are not suggested for production. We recommend customizing the class's parameters to suit your site.
For instance, this declaration installs Apache without the apache module's default virtual host configuration, allowing you to customize all Apache virtual hosts:
class { 'apache':
default_vhost => false,
}
Note: When
default_vhost
is set tofalse
, you have to add at least oneapache::vhost
resource or Apache will not start. To establish a default virtual host, either set thedefault_vhost
in theapache
class or use theapache::vhost
defined type. You can also configure additional specific virtual hosts with theapache::vhost
defined type.
The default apache
class sets up a virtual host on port 80, listening on all interfaces and serving the docroot
parameter's default directory of /var/www
.
To configure basic name-based virtual hosts, specify the port
and docroot
parameters in the apache::vhost
defined type:
apache::vhost { 'vhost.example.com':
port => '80',
docroot => '/var/www/vhost',
}
See the apache::vhost
defined type's reference for a list of all virtual host parameters.
Note: Apache processes virtual hosts in alphabetical order, and server administrators can prioritize Apache's virtual host processing by prefixing a virtual host's configuration file name with a number. The
apache::vhost
defined type applies a defaultpriority
of 15, which Puppet interprets by prefixing the virtual host's file name with15-
. This all means that if multiple sites have the same priority, or if you disable priority numbers by setting thepriority
parameter's value to false, Apache still processes virtual hosts in alphabetical order.
To configure user and group ownership for docroot
, use the docroot_owner
and docroot_group
parameters:
apache::vhost { 'user.example.com':
port => '80',
docroot => '/var/www/user',
docroot_owner => 'www-data',
docroot_group => 'www-data',
}
To configure a virtual host to use SSL encryption and default SSL certificates, set the ssl
parameter. You must also specify the port
parameter, typically with a value of '443', to accommodate HTTPS requests:
apache::vhost { 'ssl.example.com':
port => '443',
docroot => '/var/www/ssl',
ssl => true,
}
To configure a virtual host to use SSL and specific SSL certificates, use the paths to the certificate and key in the ssl_cert
and ssl_key
parameters, respectively:
apache::vhost { 'cert.example.com':
port => '443',
docroot => '/var/www/cert',
ssl => true,
ssl_cert => '/etc/ssl/fourth.example.com.cert',
ssl_key => '/etc/ssl/fourth.example.com.key',
}
To configure a mix of SSL and unencrypted virtual hosts at the same domain, declare them with separate apache::vhost
defined types:
# The non-ssl virtual host
apache::vhost { 'mix.example.com non-ssl':
servername => 'mix.example.com',
port => '80',
docroot => '/var/www/mix',
}
# The SSL virtual host at the same domain
apache::vhost { 'mix.example.com ssl':
servername => 'mix.example.com',
port => '443',
docroot => '/var/www/mix',
ssl => true,
}
To configure a virtual host to redirect unencrypted connections to SSL, declare them with separate apache::vhost
defined types and redirect unencrypted requests to the virtual host with SSL enabled:
apache::vhost { 'redirect.example.com non-ssl':
servername => 'redirect.example.com',
port => '80',
docroot => '/var/www/redirect',
redirect_status => 'permanent',
redirect_dest => 'https://redirect.example.com/'
}
apache::vhost { 'redirect.example.com ssl':
servername => 'redirect.example.com',
port => '443',
docroot => '/var/www/redirect',
ssl => true,
}
Virtual hosts listen on all IP addresses ('*') by default. To configure the virtual host to listen on a specific IP address, use the ip
parameter:
apache::vhost { 'ip.example.com':
ip => '127.0.0.1',
port => '80',
docroot => '/var/www/ip',
}
You can also configure more than one IP address per virtual host by using an array of IP addresses for the ip
parameter:
apache::vhost { 'ip.example.com':
ip => ['127.0.0.1','169.254.1.1'],
port => '80',
docroot => '/var/www/ip',
}
You can configure multiple ports per virtual host by using an array of ports for the port
parameter:
apache::vhost { 'ip.example.com':
ip => ['127.0.0.1'],
port => ['80','8080']
docroot => '/var/www/ip',
}
To configure a virtual host with aliased servers, refer to the aliases using the serveraliases
parameter:
apache::vhost { 'aliases.example.com':
serveraliases => [
'aliases.example.org',
'aliases.example.net',
],
port => '80',
docroot => '/var/www/aliases',
}
To set up a virtual host with a wildcard alias for the subdomain mapped to a directory of the same name, such as 'http://example.com.loc' mapped to /var/www/example.com
, define the wildcard alias using the serveraliases
parameter and the document root with the virtual_docroot
parameter:
apache::vhost { 'subdomain.loc':
vhost_name => '*',
port => '80',
virtual_docroot => '/var/www/%-2+',
docroot => '/var/www',
serveraliases => ['*.loc',],
}
To configure a virtual host with filter rules, pass the filter directives as an array using the filters
parameter:
apache::vhost { 'subdomain.loc':
port => '80',
filters => [
'FilterDeclare COMPRESS',
'FilterProvider COMPRESS DEFLATE resp=Content-Type $text/html',
'FilterChain COMPRESS',
'FilterProtocol COMPRESS DEFLATE change=yes;byteranges=no',
],
docroot => '/var/www/html',
}
To set up a virtual host with suPHP, use the following parameters:
suphp_engine
, to enable the suPHP engine.suphp_addhandler
, to define a MIME type.suphp_configpath
, to set which path suPHP passes to the PHP interpreter.directory
, to configure Directory, File, and Location directive blocks.
For example:
apache::vhost { 'suphp.example.com':
port => '80',
docroot => '/home/appuser/myphpapp',
suphp_addhandler => 'x-httpd-php',
suphp_engine => 'on',
suphp_configpath => '/etc/php5/apache2',
directories => [
{ 'path' => '/home/appuser/myphpapp',
'suphp' => {
user => 'myappuser',
group => 'myappgroup',
},
},
],
}
To configure a virtual host to use the Web Server Gateway Interface (WSGI) for Python applications, use the wsgi
set of parameters:
apache::vhost { 'wsgi.example.com':
port => '80',
docroot => '/var/www/pythonapp',
wsgi_application_group => '%{GLOBAL}',
wsgi_daemon_process => 'wsgi',
wsgi_daemon_process_options => {
processes => '2',
threads => '15',
display-name => '%{GROUP}',
},
wsgi_import_script => '/var/www/demo.wsgi',
wsgi_import_script_options => {
process-group => 'wsgi',
application-group => '%{GLOBAL}',
},
wsgi_process_group => 'wsgi',
wsgi_script_aliases => { '/' => '/var/www/demo.wsgi' },
}
As of Apache 2.2.16, Apache supports FallbackResource, a simple replacement for common RewriteRules. You can set a FallbackResource using the fallbackresource
parameter:
apache::vhost { 'wordpress.example.com':
port => '80',
docroot => '/var/www/wordpress',
fallbackresource => '/index.php',
}
Note: The
fallbackresource
parameter only supports the 'disabled' value since Apache 2.2.24.
To configure a virtual host with a designated directory for Common Gateway Interface (CGI) files, use the scriptalias
parameter to define the cgi-bin
path:
apache::vhost { 'cgi.example.com':
port => '80',
docroot => '/var/www/cgi',
scriptalias => '/usr/lib/cgi-bin',
}
To configure a virtual host for Rack, use the rack_base_uris
parameter:
apache::vhost { 'rack.example.com':
port => '80',
docroot => '/var/www/rack',
rack_base_uris => ['/rackapp1', '/rackapp2'],
}
You can configure IP-based virtual hosts to listen on any port and have them respond to requests on specific IP addresses. In this example, the server listens on ports 80 and 81, because the example virtual hosts are not declared with a port
parameter:
apache::listen { '80': }
apache::listen { '81': }
Configure the IP-based virtual hosts with the ip_based
parameter:
apache::vhost { 'first.example.com':
ip => '10.0.0.10',
docroot => '/var/www/first',
ip_based => true,
}
apache::vhost { 'second.example.com':
ip => '10.0.0.11',
docroot => '/var/www/second',
ip_based => true,
}
You can also configure a mix of IP- and name-based virtual hosts in any combination of SSL and unencrypted configurations.
In this example, we add two IP-based virtual hosts on an IP address (in this example, 10.0.0.10). One uses SSL and the other is unencrypted:
apache::vhost { 'The first IP-based virtual host, non-ssl':
servername => 'first.example.com',
ip => '10.0.0.10',
port => '80',
ip_based => true,
docroot => '/var/www/first',
}
apache::vhost { 'The first IP-based vhost, ssl':
servername => 'first.example.com',
ip => '10.0.0.10',
port => '443',
ip_based => true,
docroot => '/var/www/first-ssl',
ssl => true,
}
Next, we add two name-based virtual hosts listening on a second IP address (10.0.0.20):
apache::vhost { 'second.example.com':
ip => '10.0.0.20',
port => '80',
docroot => '/var/www/second',
}
apache::vhost { 'third.example.com':
ip => '10.0.0.20',
port => '80',
docroot => '/var/www/third',
}
To add name-based virtual hosts that answer on either 10.0.0.10 or 10.0.0.20, you must disable the Apache default Listen 80
, as it conflicts with the preceding IP-based virtual hosts. To do this, set the add_listen
parameter to false
:
apache::vhost { 'fourth.example.com':
port => '80',
docroot => '/var/www/fourth',
add_listen => false,
}
apache::vhost { 'fifth.example.com':
port => '80',
docroot => '/var/www/fifth',
add_listen => false,
}
There are two ways to install Apache modules using the Puppet apache module:
- Use the
apache::mod::<MODULE NAME>
classes to install specific Apache modules with parameters. - Use the
apache::mod
defined type to install arbitrary Apache modules.
The Puppet apache module supports installing many common Apache modules, often with parameterized configuration options. For a list of supported Apache modules, see the apache::mod::<MODULE NAME>
class references.
For example, you can install the mod_ssl
Apache module with default settings by declaring the apache::mod::ssl
class:
class { 'apache::mod::ssl': }
apache::mod::ssl
has several parameterized options that you can set when declaring it. For instance, to enable mod_ssl
with compression enabled, set the ssl_compression
parameter to true:
class { 'apache::mod::ssl':
ssl_compression => true,
}
Note that some modules have prerequisites, which are documented in their references under apache::mod::<MODULE NAME>
.
You can pass the name of any module that your operating system's package manager can install to the apache::mod
defined type to install it. Unlike the specific-module classes, the apache::mod
defined type doesn't tailor the installation based on other installed modules or with specific parameters---Puppet only grabs and installs the module's package, leaving detailed configuration up to you.
For example, to install the mod_authnz_external
Apache module, declare the defined type with the 'mod_authnz_external' name:
apache::mod { 'mod_authnz_external': }
There are several optional parameters you can specify when defining Apache modules this way. See the defined type's reference for details.
Add the apache::fastcgi::server
defined type to allow FastCGI servers to handle requests for specific files. For example, the following defines a FastCGI server at 127.0.0.1 (localhost) on port 9000 to handle PHP requests:
apache::fastcgi::server { 'php':
host => '127.0.0.1:9000',
timeout => 15,
flush => false,
faux_path => '/var/www/php.fcgi',
fcgi_alias => '/php.fcgi',
file_type => 'application/x-httpd-php'
}
You can then use the custom_fragment
parameter to configure the virtual host to have the FastCGI server handle the specified file type:
apache::vhost { 'www':
...
custom_fragment => 'AddType application/x-httpd-php .php'
...
}
Apache supports load balancing across groups of servers through the mod_proxy
Apache module. Puppet supports configuring Apache load balancing groups (also known as balancer clusters) through the apache::balancer
and apache::balancermember
defined types.
To enable load balancing with exported resources, export the apache::balancermember
defined type from the load balancer member server:
@@apache::balancermember { "${::fqdn}-puppet00":
balancer_cluster => 'puppet00',
url => "ajp://${::fqdn}:8009",
options => ['ping=5', 'disablereuse=on', 'retry=5', 'ttl=120'],
}
Then, on the proxy server, create the load balancing group:
apache::balancer { 'puppet00': }
To enable load balancing without exporting resources, declare the following on the proxy server:
apache::balancer { 'puppet00': }
apache::balancermember { "${::fqdn}-puppet00":
balancer_cluster => 'puppet00',
url => "ajp://${::fqdn}:8009",
options => ['ping=5', 'disablereuse=on', 'retry=5', 'ttl=120'],
}
Then declare the apache::balancer
and apache::balancermember
defined types on the proxy server.
To use the ProxySet directive on the balancer, use the proxy_set
parameter of apache::balancer
:
apache::balancer { 'puppet01':
proxy_set => {
'stickysession' => 'JSESSIONID',
'lbmethod' => 'bytraffic',
},
}
Load balancing scheduler algorithms (lbmethod
) are listed in mod_proxy_balancer documentation.
Guides the basic setup and installation of Apache on your system.
When this class is declared with the default options, Puppet:
- Installs the appropriate Apache software package and required Apache modules for your operating system.
- Places the required configuration files in a directory, with the default location determined by your operating system.
- Configures the server with a default virtual host and standard port ('80') and address ('*') bindings.
- Creates a document root directory determined by your operating system, typically
/var/www
. - Starts the Apache service.
You can simply declare the default apache
class:
class { 'apache': }
Sets the server default for the AllowEncodedSlashes
declaration, which modifies the responses to URLs containing '' and '/' characters. If not specified, this parameter omits the declaration from the server's configuration and uses Apache's default setting of 'off'.
Values: 'on', 'off', 'nodecode'.
Default: undef
.
Configures module template behavior, package names, and default Apache modules by defining the version of Apache to use. We do not recommend manually configuring this parameter without reason.
Default: Depends on operating system and release version detected by the apache::version
class.
Sets the directory where the Apache server's main configuration file is located.
Default: Depends on operating system.
- Debian:
/etc/apache2
- FreeBSD:
/usr/local/etc/apache22
- Gentoo:
/etc/apache2
- Red Hat:
/etc/httpd/conf
Defines the template used for the main Apache configuration file. Modifying this parameter is potentially risky, as the apache module is designed to use a minimal configuration file customized by conf.d
entries.
Default: apache/httpd.conf.erb
.
Sets the location of the Apache server's custom configuration directory.
Default: Depends on operating system.
- Debian:
/etc/apache2/conf.d

Used as the AddDefaultCharset
directive in the main configuration file.
Default: undef
.
Determines whether Puppet generates a default set of includable Apache configuration files in the directory defined by the confd_dir
parameter. These configuration files correspond to what is typically installed with the Apache package on the server's operating system.
Boolean.
Default: true
.
Determines whether to configure and enable a set of default Apache modules depending on your operating system.
If false
, Puppet includes only the Apache modules required to make the HTTP daemon work on your operating system, and you can declare any other modules separately using the apache::mod::<MODULE NAME>
class or apache::mod
defined type.
If true
, Puppet installs additional modules, depending on the operating system and the values of apache_version
and mpm_module
parameters. Because these lists of modules can change frequently, consult the Puppet module's code for up-to-date lists.
If this parameter contains an array, Puppet instead enables all passed Apache modules.
Values: Boolean or an array of Apache module names.
Default: true
.
Sets the default certificate authority for the Apache server.
Although the default value results in a functioning Apache server, you must update this parameter with your certificate authority information before deploying this server in a production environment.
Boolean.
Default: undef
.
Sets the SSL encryption certificate location.
Although the default value results in a functioning Apache server, you must update this parameter with your certificate location before deploying this server in a production environment.
Default: Depends on operating system.

Sets the default SSL chain location.
Although this default value results in a functioning Apache server, you must update this parameter with your SSL chain before deploying this server in a production environment.
Default: undef
.
Sets the path of the default certificate revocation list (CRL) file to use.
Although this default value results in a functioning Apache server, you must update this parameter with the CRL file path before deploying this server in a production environment. You can use this parameter with or in place of the default_ssl_crl_path
.
Default: undef
.
Sets the server's certificate revocation list path, which contains your CRLs.
Although this default value results in a functioning Apache server, you must update this parameter with the CRL file path before deploying this server in a production environment.
Default: undef
.
Sets the default certificate revocation check level via the SSLCARevocationCheck
directive. This parameter applies only to Apache 2.4 or higher and is ignored on older versions.
Although this default value results in a functioning Apache server, you must specify this parameter when using certificate revocation lists in a production environment.
Default: undef
.
Sets the SSL certificate key file location.
Although the default values result in a functioning Apache server, you must update this parameter with your SSL key's location before deploying this server in a production environment.
Default: Depends on operating system.
- Debian:

Configures a default SSL virtual host.
If true
, Puppet automatically configures the following virtual host using the apache::vhost
defined type:
apache::vhost { 'default-ssl':
port => 443,
ssl => true,
docroot => $docroot,
scriptalias => $scriptalias,
serveradmin => $serveradmin,
access_log_file => "ssl_${access_log_file}",
}
Note: SSL virtual hosts only respond to HTTPS queries.
Boolean.
Default: false
.
Apache 2.2 only. Sets the MIME content-type
sent if the server cannot otherwise determine an appropriate content-type
. This directive is deprecated in Apache 2.4 and newer, and is only for backwards compatibility in configuration files.
Default: undef
.
Configures a default virtual host when the class is declared.
To configure customized virtual hosts, set this parameter's value to false
.
Note: Apache will not start without at least one virtual host. If you set this to
false
you must configure a virtual host elsewhere.
Boolean.
Default: true
.
Configures a specific dev package to use.
Values: A string or array of strings.
Example for using httpd 2.4 from the IUS yum repo:
include ::apache::dev
class { 'apache':
apache_name => 'httpd24u',
dev_packages => 'httpd24u-devel',
}
Default: Depends on operating system.

- Red Hat:
/var/www/html
Determines whether to enable custom error documents on the Apache server.
Boolean.
Default: false
.
Sets the group ID that owns any Apache processes spawned to answer requests.
By default, Puppet attempts to manage this group as a resource under the apache
class, determining the group based on the operating system as detected by the apache::params
class. To to prevent the group resource from being created and use a group created by another Puppet module, set the manage_group
parameter's value to false
.
Note: Modifying this parameter only changes the group ID that Apache uses to spawn child processes to access resources. It does not change the user that owns the parent server process.
Sets the Apache server's base configuration directory. This is useful for specially repackaged Apache server builds but might have unintended consequences when combined with the default distribution packages.
Default: Depends on operating system.
- Debian:
/etc/apache2
- FreeBSD:
/usr/local/etc/apache22
- Gentoo:
/etc/apache2
- Red Hat:

Specifies the strictness of HTTP protocol checks.
Valid options: any sequence of the following alternative values: Strict
or Unsafe
, RegisteredMethods
or LenientMethods
, and Allow0.9
or Require1.0
.
Default 'Strict LenientMethods Allow0.9
'.
Determines whether to enable persistent HTTP connections with the KeepAlive
directive. If you set this to 'On', use the keepalive_timeout
and max_keepalive_requests
parameters to set relevant options.
Values: 'Off', 'On'.
Default: 'Off'.
Sets the KeepAliveTimeout
directive, which determines the amount of time the Apache server waits for subsequent requests on a persistent HTTP connection. This parameter is only relevant if the keepalive
parameter is enabled.
Default: '15'.
Limits the number of requests allowed per connection when the keepalive
parameter is enabled.
Default: '100'.
Specifies the location where Apache module files are stored.
Default: Depends on operating system.

modules
Note: Do not configure this parameter manually without special reason.
Changes the error log's verbosity. Values: 'alert', 'crit', 'debug', 'emerg', 'error', 'info', 'notice', 'warn'.
Default: 'warn'.
Define additional LogFormat
directives. Values: A hash, such as:
$log_formats = { vhost_common => '%v %h %l %u %t \"%r\" %>s %b' }
There are a number of predefined LogFormats
in the httpd.conf
that Puppet creates:
LogFormat "%h %l %u %t \"%r\" %>s %b \"%{Referer}i\" \"%{User-Agent}i\"" combined
LogFormat "%h %l %u %t \"%r\" %>s %b" common
LogFormat "%{Referer}i -> %U" referer
LogFormat "%{User-agent}i" agent
LogFormat "%{X-Forwarded-For}i %l %u %t \"%r\" %s %b \"%{Referer}i\" \"%{User-agent}i\"" forwarded
If your log_formats
parameter contains one of those, it will be overwritten with your definition.
Changes the directory of Apache log files for the virtual host.
Default: Depends on operating system.
- Debian:
/var/log/apache2
- FreeBSD:
/var/log/apache22
- Gentoo:
/var/log/apache2
- Red Hat:
/var/log/httpd
Overrides the default logroot
directory's mode.
Note: Do not grant write access to the directory where the logs are stored without being aware of the consequences. See the Apache documentation for details.
Default: undef
.
When false
, stops Puppet from creating the group resource.
If you have a group created from another Puppet module that you want to use to run Apache, set this to false
. Without this parameter, attempting to use a previously established group results in a duplicate resource error.
Boolean.
Default: true
.
A list of groups to which the user belongs. These groups are in addition to the primary group.
Default: No additional groups.
Notice: This option only has an effect when manage_user
is set to true.
When false
, stops Puppet from creating the user resource.
This is for instances when you have a user, created from another Puppet module, you want to use to run Apache. Without this parameter, attempting to use a previously established user would result in a duplicate resource error.
Boolean.
Default: true
.
Sets where Puppet places configuration files for your Apache modules.
Default: Depends on operating system.

})
}
Hash. Default: $apache::params::mod_packages
Determines which multi-processing module (MPM) is loaded and configured for the HTTPD process. Values: 'event', 'itk', 'peruser', 'prefork', 'worker', or false
.
You must set this to false
to explicitly declare the following classes with custom parameters:
Default: Depends on operating system.
- Debian: 'worker'
- FreeBSD, Gentoo, and Red Hat: 'prefork'
Controls the package
resource's ensure
attribute. Values: 'absent', 'installed' (or equivalent 'present'), or a version string.
Default: 'installed'.
Allows settting a custom location for the pid file. Useful if using a custom-built Apache rpm.
Default: Depends on operating system.

Sets the path to the file containing Apache ports configuration.
Default: '{$conf_dir}/ports.conf'.
Removes all other Apache configs and virtual hosts.
Setting this to false
is a stopgap measure to allow the apache module to coexist with existing or unmanaged configurations. We recommend moving your configuration to resources within this module. For virtual host configurations, see purge_vhost_dir
.
Boolean.
Default: true
.
If the vhost_dir
parameter's value differs from the confd_dir
parameter's, this parameter determines whether Puppet removes any configurations inside vhost_dir
that are not managed by Puppet.
Setting purge_vhost_dir
to false
is a stopgap measure to allow the apache module to coexist with existing or otherwise unmanaged configurations within vhost_dir
.
Boolean.
Default: same as purge_configs
.
Allows setting a custom location for a rewrite lock - considered best practice if using a RewriteMap of type prg in the [rewrites
][] parameter of your virtual host. This parameter only applies to Apache version 2.2 or lower and is ignored on newer versions.
Default: undef
.
Forces Apache to use the Linux kernel's sendfile
support to serve static files, via the EnableSendfile
directive. Values: 'On', 'Off'.
Default: 'On'.
Sets the Apache server administrator's contact information via Apache's ServerAdmin
directive.
Default: 'root@localhost'.
Sets the Apache server name via Apache's ServerName
directive.
Setting to false
will not set ServerName at all.
Default: the 'fqdn' fact reported by Facter.
Sets the Apache server's root directory via Apache's ServerRoot
directive.
Default: Depends on operating system.
- Debian:

directive.
Default: 'OS'.
Determines whether Puppet enables the Apache HTTPD service when the system is booted.
Boolean.
Default: true
.
Determines whether Puppet should make sure the service is running. Values: true
(or 'running'), false
(or 'stopped').
The false
or 'stopped' values set the 'httpd' service resource's ensure
parameter to false
, which is useful when you want to let the service be managed by another application, such as Pacemaker.
Default: 'running'.
Sets the name of the Apache service.
Default: Depends on operating system.
- Debian and Gentoo: 'apache2'
- FreeBSD: 'apache22'
- Red Hat: 'httpd'
Determines whether Puppet manages the HTTPD service's state.
Boolean.
Default: true
.
Determines whether Puppet should use a specific command to restart the HTTPD service.

Values: A string, with permissions mode in symbolic or numeric notation.
Default: '0644'.
Array of the desired options for the / directory in httpd.conf.
Defaults: 'FollowSymLinks'.
Sets the default access policy for the / directory in httpd.conf. A value of false
allows access to all resources that are missing a more specific access policy. A value of true
denies access to all resources by default. If true
, more specific rules must be used to allow access to these resources (for example, in a directory block using the directories
parameter).
Boolean.
Default: false
.
Changes your virtual host configuration files' location.
Default: Depends on operating system:
- Debian:
/etc/apache2/sites-available
- FreeBSD:
/usr/local/etc/apache22/Vhosts
- Gentoo:
/etc/apache2/vhosts.d
- Red Hat:
/etc/httpd/conf.d

parameter to false
.
Default: Depends on the user set by apache::params
class, based on your operating system:
- Debian: 'www-data'
- FreeBSD: 'www'
- Gentoo and Red Hat: 'apache'
To prevent Puppet from managing the user, set the manage_user
parameter to false.

defined type's parameters.Values: A hash, where the key represents the name and the value represents a hash of
apache::vhost
defined type's parameters.Default: '{}'
Note: See the
apache::vhost
defined type's reference for a list of all virtual host parameters or Configuring virtual hosts.For example, to create a name-based virtual host 'custom_vhost_1, declare this class with the
vhosts
parameter set to '{ "custom_vhost_1" => { "docroot" => "/var/www/custom_vhost_1", "port" => "81" }':
class { 'apache::vhosts':
vhosts => {
'custom_vhost_1' => {
'docroot' => '/var/www/custom_vhost_1',
'port' => '81',
},
},
}
Enables specific Apache modules. Enable and configure an Apache module by declaring its class.
For example, to install and enable mod_alias
with no icons, declare the apache::mod::alias
class with the icons_options
parameter set to 'None':
class { 'apache::mod::alias':
icons_options => 'None',
}
The following Apache modules have supported classes, many of which allow for parameterized configuration. You can install other Apache modules with the apache::mod
defined type.

class { '::apache::mod::jk':
workers_file = 'conf/workers.properties',
mount_file = 'conf/uriworkermap.properties',
shm_file = 'run/jk.shm',
shm_size = '50M',
$workers_file_content = {
<Content>
},
}
Parameters within apache::mod::jk
:
The best source for understanding the mod_jk
parameters is the official documentation, except for *file_content:
workers_file_content
Each directive has the format worker.<Worker name>.<Property>=<Value>
. This maps as a hash of hashes, where the outer hash specifies workers, and each inner hash specifies each worker properties and values.
Plus, there are two global directives, 'worker.list' and 'worker.mantain'
For example, the workers file below:
worker.list = status
worker.list = some_name,other_name
worker.mantain = 60
# Optional comment
worker.some_name.type=ajp13
worker.some_name.socket_keepalive=true
# I just like comments
worker.other_name.type=ajp12 (why would you?)
worker.other_name.socket_keepalive=false
Should be parameterized as:
$workers_file_content = {
worker_lists => ['status', 'some_name,other_name'],
worker_mantain => '60',
some_name => {
comment => 'Optional comment',
type => 'ajp13',
socket_keepalive => 'true',
},
other_name => {
comment => 'I just like comments',
type => 'ajp12',
socket_keepalive => 'false',
},
}
mount_file_content
Each directive has the format <URI> = <Worker name>
. This maps as a hash of hashes, where the outer hash specifies workers, and each inner hash contains two items: uri_list - an array with URIs to be mapped to the worker - and comment - an optional string with a comment for the worker.
For example, the mount file below:
# Worker 1
/context_1/ = worker_1
/context_1/* = worker_1
# Worker 2
/ = worker_2
/context_2/ = worker_2
/context_2/* = worker_2
Should be parameterized as:
$mount_file_content = {
worker_1 => {

Creates the no-accf.conf
configuration file in conf.d
, required by FreeBSD's Apache 2.4.
Includes conf.d
files for FreeBSD.
Installs the Apache modules required to run the default configuration. See the apache
class's default_mods
parameter for details.
Installs and configures basic Apache packages.
Manages Apache parameters for different operating systems.
Manages the Apache daemon.
Attempts to automatically detect the Apache version based on the operating system.
Creates an Apache load balancing group, also known as a balancer cluster, using mod_proxy
. Each load balancing group needs one or more balancer members, which you can declare in Puppet with the apache::balancermember
defined type.
Declare one apache::balancer
defined type for each Apache load balancing group. You can export apache::balancermember
defined types for all balancer members and collect them on a single Apache load balancer server using exported resources.
Parameters:
Sets the title of the balancer cluster and name of the conf.d
file containing its configuration.
Configures key-value pairs as ProxySet
lines. Values: a hash.
Default: '{}'.
Determines whether to use exported resources.
If you statically declare all of your backend servers, set this parameter to false
to rely on existing, declared balancer member resources. Also, use apache::balancermember
with array arguments.
To dynamically declare backend servers via exported resources collected on a central node, set this parameter to true
to collect the balancer member resources exported by the balancer member nodes.
If you don't use exported resources, a single Puppet run configures all balancer members. If you use exported resources, Puppet has to run on the balanced nodes first, then run on the balancer.
Boolean.
Default: true
.
Defines members of mod_proxy_balancer
, which sets up a balancer member inside a listening service configuration block in the load balancer's apache.cfg
.
Parameters:
Required.
Sets the Apache service's instance name, and must match the name of a declared apache::balancer
resource.
Specifies the URL used to contact the balancer member server.
Default: 'http://${::fqdn}/'.
Specifies an array of options after the URL, and accepts any key-value pairs available to ProxyPass
.
Default: an empty array.
Adds a custom configuration file to the Apache server's conf.d
directory. If the file is invalid and this defined type's verify_config
parameter's value is true
, Puppet throws an error during a Puppet run.
Parameters:
Specifies whether the configuration file should be present.
Values: 'absent', 'present'.
Default: 'present'.
Sets the directory in which Puppet places configuration files.
Default: the value of $::apache::confd_dir
.
Sets the configuration file's content. The content
and source
parameters are exclusive of each other.
Default: undef
Sets the name of the file under confdir
in which Puppet stores the configuration.
Default: Filename generated from the priority
parameter and the resource name.
Sets the configuration file's priority by prefixing its filename with this parameter's numeric value, as Apache processes configuration files in alphanumeric order.
To omit the priority prefix in the configuration file's name, set this parameter to false
.
Default: '25'.
Points to the configuration file's source. The content
and source
parameters are exclusive of each other. TODO: is this required or does it have a default value?
Default: undef
Specifies the command Puppet uses to verify the configuration file. Use a fully qualified command.
This parameter is used only if the verify_config
parameter's value is true
. If the verify_command
fails, the Puppet run deletes the configuration file and raises an error, but does not notify the Apache service.
Default: '/usr/sbin/apachectl -t'.
Specifies whether to validate the configuration file before notifying the Apache service.
Boolean.
Default: true
.
Defines one or more external FastCGI servers to handle specific file types. Use this defined type with mod_fastcgi
.
Parameters
Determines the FastCGI's hostname or IP address and TCP port number (1-65535).
Default: '127.0.0.1:9000'.
Sets the number of seconds a FastCGI application can be inactive before aborting the request and logging the event at the error LogLevel. The inactivity timer applies only as long as a connection is pending with the FastCGI application. If a request is queued to an application, but the application doesn't respond by writing and flushing within this period, the request is aborted. If communication is complete with the application but incomplete with the client (the response is buffered), the timeout does not apply.
Default: 15.
Forces mod_fastcgi
to write to the client as data is received from the application. By default, mod_fastcgi
buffers data in order to free the application as quickly as possible.
Default: false
.
Apache has FastCGI handle URIs that resolve to this filename. The path set in this parameter does not have to exist in the local filesystem.
Default: "/var/www/${name}.fcgi".
Internally links actions with the FastCGI server. This alias must be unique.
Default: "/${name}.fcgi".
Sets the MIME content-type
of the file to be processed by the FastCGI server.
Default: 'application/x-httpd-php'.
Adds Listen
directives to ports.conf
in the Apache configuration directory that define the Apache server's or a virtual host's listening address and port. The apache::vhost
class uses this defined type, and titles take the form <PORT>
, <IPV4>:<PORT>
, or <IPV6>:<PORT>
.
Installs packages for an Apache module that doesn't have a corresponding apache::mod::<MODULE NAME>
class, and checks for or places the module's default configuration files in the Apache server's module
and enable
directories. The default locations depend on your operating system.
Parameters:
Required.
Names the package Puppet uses to install the Apache module.
Default: undef
.
Determines whether Puppet ensures the Apache module should be installed.
Values: 'absent', 'present'.
Default: 'present'.
Defines the module's shared object name. Do not configure manually without special reason.
Default: mod_$name.so
.
Specifies a path to the module's libraries. Do not manually set this parameter without special reason. The path
parameter overrides this value.
Default: The apache
class's lib_path
parameter.
Sets the filename for the module's LoadFile
directive, which can also set the module load order as Apache processes them in alphanumeric order.
Values: Filenames formatted \*.load
.
Default: the resource's name followed by 'load', as in '$name.load'.
Specifies an array of LoadFile
directives.
Default: undef
.
Specifies a path to the module. Do not manually set this parameter without a special reason.
Enables name-based virtual hosts and adds all related directives to the ports.conf
file in the Apache HTTPD configuration directory. Titles can take the forms '*', '*:<PORT>', '_default_:<PORT>, '<IP>', or '<IP>:<PORT>'.
The apache module allows a lot of flexibility in the setup and configuration of virtual hosts. This flexibility is due, in part, to vhost
being a defined resource type, which allows Apache to evaluate it multiple times with different parameters.
The apache::vhost
defined type allows you to have specialized configurations for virtual hosts that have requirements outside the defaults. You can set up a default virtual host within the base ::apache
class, as well as set a customized virtual host as the default. Customized virtual hosts have a lower numeric priority
than the base class's, causing Apache to process the customized virtual host first.
The apache::vhost
defined type uses concat::fragment
to build the configuration file. To inject custom fragments for pieces of the configuration that the defined type doesn't inherently support, add a custom fragment.
For the custom fragment's order
parameter, the apache::vhost
defined type uses multiples of 10, so any order
that isn't a multiple of 10 should work.
Parameters:
Determines whether to configure *_access.log
directives (*_file
,*_pipe
, or *_syslog
).
Boolean.
Default: true
.
Specifies that only requests with particular environment variables be logged.
Default: undef
.
Sets the filename of the *_access.log
placed in logroot
. Given a virtual host---for instance, example.com---it defaults to 'example.com_ssl.log' for SSL-encrypted virtual hosts and 'example.com_access.log' for unencrypted virtual hosts.
Default: false
.
Specifies the use of either a LogFormat
nickname or a custom-formatted string for the access log.
Default: 'combined'.
Specifies a pipe where Apache sends access log messages.
Default: undef
.
Sends all access log messages to syslog.
Default: undef
.
Sets a default media charset value for the AddDefaultCharset
directive, which is added to text/plain
and text/html
responses.
Default: undef
.
Determines whether the virtual host creates a Listen
statement.
Setting add_listen
to false
prevents the virtual host from creating a Listen
statement. This is important when combining virtual hosts that aren't passed an ip
parameter with those that are.
Boolean.
Default: true
.
Specifies whether Apache uses the IncludeOptional
directive instead of Include
for additional_includes
in Apache 2.4 or newer.
Boolean.
Default: false
.
Specifies paths to additional static, virtual host-specific Apache configuration files. You can use this parameter to implement a unique, custom configuration not supported by this module.
Values: a string or array of strings specifying paths.
Default: an empty array.
Passes a list of hashes to the virtual host to create Alias
, AliasMatch
, ScriptAlias
or ScriptAliasMatch
directives as per the mod_alias
documentation.
For example:
aliases => [
{ aliasmatch => '^/image/(.*)\.jpg$',
path => '/files/jpg.images/$1.jpg',
},
{ alias => '/image',
path => '/ftp/pub/image',
},
{ scriptaliasmatch => '^/cgi-bin(.*)',
path => '/usr/local/share/cgi-bin$1',
},
{ scriptalias => '/nagios/cgi-bin/',
path => '/usr/lib/nagios/cgi-bin/',
},
{ alias => '/nagios',
path => '/usr/share/nagios/html',
},
],
For the alias
, aliasmatch
, scriptalias
and scriptaliasmatch
keys to work, each needs a corresponding context, such as <Directory /path/to/directory>
or <Location /some/location/here>
. Puppet creates the directives in the order specified in the aliases
parameter. As described in the mod_alias
documentation, add more specific alias
, aliasmatch
, scriptalias
or scriptaliasmatch
parameters before the more general ones to avoid shadowing.
Note: Use the
aliases
parameter instead of thescriptaliases
parameter because you can precisely control the order of various alias directives. DefiningScriptAliases
using thescriptaliases
parameter means allScriptAlias
directives will come after allAlias
directives, which can lead toAlias
directives shadowingScriptAlias
directives. This often causes problems; for example, this could cause problems with Nagios.
If apache::mod::passenger
is loaded and PassengerHighPerformance
is true
, the Alias
directive might not be able to honor the PassengerEnabled => off
statement. See this article for details.

Determines whether the virtual host inherits global rewrite rules.
Default: false
.
Rewrite rules may be specified globally (in $conf_file

file. By default, virtual hosts do not inherit global settings. To activate inheritance, specify the rewrites
parameter and set rewrite_inherit
parameter to true
:
apache::vhost { 'site.name.fdqn':
…
rewrites => [
<rules>,
],

{
aliasmatch => '^/bar/(.*)',
path => '/usr/share/bar/wrapper.sh/$1',
},
{
alias => '/neatscript',
path => '/usr/share/neatscript',

: Uses the WSGI application to handle authorization instead of Apache when set to 'On'. For more information, see [mod_wsgi's WSGIPassAuthorization documentation] (https://modwsgi.readthedocs.org/en/latest/configuration-directives/WSGIPassAuthorization.html). Default:undef
, leading Apache to use its default value of 'Off'.wsgi_chunked_request
: Enables support for chunked requests. Default:undef
.
An example virtual host configuration with WSGI:
apache::vhost { 'wsgi.example.com':
port => '80',
docroot => '/var/www/pythonapp',
wsgi_daemon_process => 'wsgi',
wsgi_daemon_process_options =>
{ processes => '2',
threads => '15',
display-name => '%{GROUP}',
},
wsgi_process_group => 'wsgi',
wsgi_script_aliases => { '/' => '/var/www/demo.wsgi' },
wsgi_chunked_request => 'On',
}
The directories
parameter within the apache::vhost
class passes an array of hashes to the virtual host to create Directory, File, and Location directive blocks. These blocks take the form, '< Directory /path/to/directory>...< /Directory>'.
The path
key sets the path for the directory, files, and location blocks. Its value must be a path for the 'directory', 'files', and 'location' providers, or a regex for the 'directorymatch', 'filesmatch', or 'locationmatch' providers. Each hash passed to directories
must contain path
as one of the keys.
The provider
key is optional. If missing, this key defaults to 'directory'. Values: 'directory', 'files', 'proxy', 'location', 'directorymatch', 'filesmatch', 'proxymatch' or 'locationmatch'. If you set provider
to 'directorymatch', it uses the keyword 'DirectoryMatch' in the Apache config file.
An example use of directories
:
apache::vhost { 'files.example.net':
docroot => '/var/www/files',
directories => [
{ 'path' => '/var/www/files',
'provider' => 'files',
'deny' => 'from all',
},
],
}
Note: At least one directory should match the
docroot
parameter. After you start declaring directories,apache::vhost
assumes that all required Directory blocks will be declared. If not defined, a single default Directory block is created that matches thedocroot
parameter.
Available handlers, represented as keys, should be placed within the directory
, files
, or location
hashes. This looks like
apache::vhost { 'sample.example.net':
docroot => '/path/to/directory',
directories => [ { path => '/path/to/directory', handler => value } ],
}
Any handlers you do not set in these hashes are considered 'undefined' within Puppet and are not added to the virtual host, resulting in the module using their default values. Supported handlers are:
Sets AddHandler directives, which map filename extensions to the specified handler. Accepts a list of hashes, with extensions
serving to list the extensions being managed by the handler, and takes the form: { handler => 'handler-name', extensions => ['extension'] }
.
An example:
apache::vhost { 'sample.example.net':
docroot => '/path/to/directory',
directories => [
{ path => '/path/to/directory',
addhandlers => [{ handler => 'cgi-script', extensions => ['.cgi']}],
},
],
}
Sets an Allow directive, which groups authorizations based on hostnames or IPs. Deprecated: This parameter is being deprecated due to a change in Apache. It only works with Apache 2.2 and lower. You can use it as a single string for one rule or as an array for more than one.
apache::vhost { 'sample.example.net':
docroot => '/path/to/directory',
directories => [
{ path => '/path/to/directory',
allow => 'from example.org',
},
],
}
Sets the types of directives allowed in .htaccess files. Accepts an array.
apache::vhost { 'sample.example.net':
docroot => '/path/to/directory',
directories => [
{ path => '/path/to/directory',
allow_override => ['AuthConfig', 'Indexes'],
},
],
}
Sets the value for AuthBasicAuthoritative, which determines whether authorization and authentication are passed to lower level Apache modules.
Sets the value for AuthBasicFake, which statically configures authorization credentials for a given directive block.

Sets the value for AuthDigestDomain, which allows you to specify one or more URIs in the same protection space for digest authentication.
Sets the value for AuthDigestNonceLifetime, which controls how long the server nonce is valid.
Sets the value for AuthDigestProvider, which sets the authentication provider for a given location.
Sets the value for AuthDigestQop, which determines the quality-of-protection to use in digest authentication.
Sets the value for AuthAuthDigestShmemSize, which defines the amount of shared memory allocated to the server for keeping track of clients.
Sets the value for AuthGroupFile, which sets the name of the text file containing the list of user groups for authorization.
Sets the value for AuthName, which sets the name of the authorization realm.
Sets the entity name you're requiring to allow access. Read more about Require.
Sets the value for AuthType, which guides the type of user authentication.
Sets the value for AuthUserFile, which sets the name of the text file containing the users/passwords for authentication.
Sets the value for AuthMerging, which determines if authorization logic should be combined
Sets the value for AuthLDAPURL, which determines URL of LDAP-server(s) if AuthBasicProvider 'ldap' is used
Sets the value for AuthLDAPBindDN, which allows use of an optional DN used to bind to the LDAP-server when searching for entries if AuthBasicProvider 'ldap' is used.
Sets the value for AuthLDAPBindPassword, which allows use of an optional bind password to use in conjunction with the bind DN if AuthBasicProvider 'ldap' is used.
Array of values for AuthLDAPGroupAttribute, specifies which LDAP attributes are used to check for user members within ldap-groups.
Default: "member" and "uniquemember".
Sets value for AuthLDAPGroupAttributeIsDN, specifies if member of a ldapgroup is a dn or simple username. When set on, this directive says to use the distinguished name of the client username when checking for group membership. Otherwise, the username will be used. valid values are: "on" or "off"
Pass a string of custom configuration directives to be placed at the end of the directory configuration.
apache::vhost { 'monitor':
…
directories => [
{
path => '/path/to/directory',
custom_fragment => '
<Location /balancer-manager>
SetHandler balancer-manager
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Location>
<Location /server-status>
SetHandler server-status
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Location>
ProxyStatus On',
},
]
}
Sets the value for Dav, which determines if the WebDAV HTTP methods should be enabled. The value can be either 'On', 'Off' or the name of the provider. A value of 'On' enables the default filesystem provider implemented by the mod_dav_fs
module.
Sets the value for DavDepthInfinity, which is used to enable the processing of PROPFIND
requests having a Depth: Infinity
header.
Sets the value for DavMinTimeout, which sets the time the server holds a lock on a DAV resource. The value should be the number of seconds to set.
Sets a Deny directive, specifying which hosts are denied access to the server. Deprecated: This parameter is being deprecated due to a change in Apache. It only works with Apache 2.2 and lower. You can use it as a single string for one rule or as an array for more than one.
apache::vhost { 'sample.example.net':
docroot => '/path/to/directory',
directories => [
{ path => '/path/to/directory',

apache::vhost { 'sample.example.net':
docroot => '/path/to/directory',
directories => [
{ path => '/path/to/directory',
options => ['Indexes','FollowSymLinks','MultiViews'],
},
],
}
Sets the order of processing Allow and Deny statements as per Apache core documentation. Deprecated: This parameter is being deprecated due to a change in Apache. It only works with Apache 2.2 and lower.
apache::vhost { 'sample.example.net':
docroot => '/path/to/directory',
directories => [
{ path => '/path/to/directory',
order => 'Allow,Deny',
},
],
}
Sets the value for the PassengerEnabled directive to 'on' or 'off'. Requires apache::mod::passenger
to be included.
apache::vhost { 'sample.example.net':
docroot => '/path/to/directory',
directories => [
{ path => '/path/to/directory',
passenger_enabled => 'on',
},
],
}
Note: There is an issue using the PassengerEnabled directive with the PassengerHighPerformance directive.
php_value
sets the value of the directory, and php_flag
uses a boolean to configure the directory. Further information can be found here.
php_admin_value
sets the value of the directory, and php_admin_flag
uses a boolean to configure the directory. Further information can be found here.
Sets a Require
directive as per the Apache Authz documentation. If no require
is set, it will default to Require all granted
.
apache::vhost { 'sample.example.net':
docroot => '/path/to/directory',
directories => [
{ path => '/path/to/directory',
require => 'ip 10.17.42.23',
}
],
}
When more complex sets of requirement are needed, apache >= 2.4 provides the use of RequireAll, RequireNone or RequireAny directives. Using the 'enforce' key, which only supports 'any','none','all' (other values are silently ignored), this could be established like:
apache::vhost { 'sample.example.net':
docroot => '/path/to/directory',
directories => [
{ path => '/path/to/directory',
require => {
enforce => 'any',
requires => [
'ip 1.2.3.4',
'not host host.example.com',
'user xyz',
],
},
},
],
}
If require
is set to unmanaged
it will not be set at all. This is useful for complex authentication/authorization requirements which are handled in a custom fragment.
apache::vhost { 'sample.example.net':
docroot => '/path/to/directory',
directories => [
{ path => '/path/to/directory',
require => 'unmanaged',
}
],
}
Sets a Satisfy
directive per the Apache Core documentation. Deprecated: This parameter is deprecated due to a change in Apache and only works with Apache 2.2 and lower.

docroot => '/path/to/directory',
directories => [
{ path => '/path/to/directory',
satisfy => 'Any',
}
],
}
Sets a SetHandler
directive per the Apache Core documentation.
apache::vhost { 'sample.example.net':
docroot => '/path/to/directory',
directories => [
{ path => '/path/to/directory',
sethandler => 'None',
}
],
}
Sets a SetOutputFilter
directive per the Apache Core documentation.
apache::vhost{ 'filter.example.net':
docroot => '/path/to/directory',
directories => [
{ path => '/path/to/directory',
set_output_filter => puppetdb-strip-resource-params,
},
],
}
Creates URL rewrites
rules in virtual host directories. Expects an array of hashes, and the hash keys can be any of 'comment', 'rewrite_base', 'rewrite_cond', or 'rewrite_rule'.
apache::vhost { 'secure.example.net':
docroot => '/path/to/directory',
directories => [
{ path => '/path/to/directory',
rewrites => [ { comment => 'Permalink Rewrites',
rewrite_base => '/'
},
{ rewrite_rule => [ '^index\.php$ - [L]' ]
},
{ rewrite_cond => [ '%{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f',
'%{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d',
],
rewrite_rule => [ '. /index.php [L]' ],
}
],
},
],
}
Note: If you include rewrites in your directories, also include
apache::mod::rewrite
and consider setting the rewrites using therewrites
parameter inapache::vhost
rather than setting the rewrites in the virtual host's directories.
Allows a valid content setting to be set or altered for the application request. This command takes two parameters: the name of the content setting, and the value to set it to. Check the Shibboleth content setting documentation for valid settings. This key is disabled if apache::mod::shib
is not defined. Check the mod_shib
documentation for more details.
apache::vhost { 'secure.example.net':
docroot => '/path/to/directory',
directories => [
{ path => '/path/to/directory',
shib_request_settings => { 'requiresession' => 'On' },
shib_use_headers => 'On',
},
],
}
When set to 'On', this turns on the use of request headers to publish attributes to applications. Values for this key is 'On' or 'Off', and the default value is 'Off'. This key is disabled if apache::mod::shib
is not defined. Check the mod_shib
documentation for more details.

{ path => '/path/to/directory',
ssl_options => '+ExportCertData',
},
{ path => '/path/to/different/dir',
ssl_options => [ '-StdEnvVars', '+ExportCertData'],
},
],
}

{ path => '/path/to/directory',
suphp => {
user => 'myappuser',
group => 'myappgroup',
},
},
],
}

additional_includes => [ '/custom/path/includes', '/custom/path/another_includes', ],
},
],
}

This type is intended for use with mod_fastcgi. It allows you to define one or more external FastCGI servers to handle specific file types.
** Note ** If using Ubuntu 10.04+, you'll need to manually enable the multiverse repository.
Ex:
apache::fastcgi::server { 'php':
host => '127.0.0.1:9000',
timeout => 15,
flush => `false`,
faux_path => '/var/www/php.fcgi',
fcgi_alias => '/php.fcgi',
file_type => 'application/x-httpd-php',
pass_header => ''
}
Within your virtual host, you can then configure the specified file type to be handled by the fastcgi server specified above.
apache::vhost { 'www':
...
custom_fragment => 'AddType application/x-httpd-php .php'
...
}
The hostname or IP address and TCP port number (1-65535) of the FastCGI server.
It is also possible to pass a unix socket:
apache::fastcgi::server { 'php':
host => '/var/run/fcgi.sock',
}
The number of seconds of FastCGI application inactivity allowed before the request is aborted and the event is logged (at the error LogLevel). The inactivity timer applies only as long as a connection is pending with the FastCGI application. If a request is queued to an application, but the application doesn't respond (by writing and flushing) within this period, the request is aborted. If communication is complete with the application but incomplete with the client (the response is buffered), the timeout does not apply.
Force a write to the client as data is received from the application. By default, mod_fastcgi
buffers data in order to free the application as quickly as possible.
Does not have to exist in the local filesystem. URIs that Apache resolves to this filename are handled by this external FastCGI application.
A unique alias. This is used internally to link the action with the FastCGI server.
The MIME-type of the file to be processed by the FastCGI server.
The name of an HTTP Request Header to be passed in the request environment. This option makes available the contents of headers which are normally not available (e.g. Authorization) to a CGI environment.
The apache::vhost::custom
defined type is a thin wrapper around the apache::custom_config
defined type, and simply overrides some of its default settings specific to the virtual host directory in Apache.
Parameters within apache::vhost::custom
:
Sets the configuration file's content.
Specifies if the virtual host file is present or absent.
Values: 'absent', 'present'.
Default: 'present'.
Sets the relative load order for Apache HTTPD VirtualHost configuration files.
Default: '25'.
Specifies whether to validate the configuration file before notifying the Apache service.
Boolean.
Default: true
.
This defined type checks if an Apache module has a class. If it does, it includes that class. If it does not, it passes the module name to the apache::mod
defined type.
Enables the Peruser
module for FreeBSD only.
Enables the Peruser
module for FreeBSD only.
Links the activated_rules
from apache::mod::security
to the respective CRS rules on disk.
The Apache module relies heavily on templates to enable the apache::vhost
and apache::mod
defined types. These templates are built based on Facter facts specific to your operating system. Unless explicitly called out, most templates are not meant for configuration.
Hashes a password in a format suitable for htpasswd files read by apache.
Currently uses SHA-hashes, because although this format is considered insecure, its the most secure format supported by the most platforms.
This module is CI tested against both open source Puppet and Puppet Enterprise on:
- CentOS 5 and 6
- Ubuntu 12.04 and 14.04
- Debian 7
- RHEL 5, 6, and 7
This module also provides functions for other distributions and operating systems, such as FreeBSD, Gentoo, and Amazon Linux, but is not formally tested on them and are subject to regressions.
In order to use this module on FreeBSD, you must use apache24-2.4.12 (www/apache24) or newer.
On Gentoo, this module depends on the gentoo/puppet-portage
Puppet module. Although several options apply or enable certain features and settings for Gentoo, it is not a supported operating system for this module.
The apache::mod::auth_cas
, apache::mod::passenger
, apache::mod::proxy_html
and apache::mod::shib
classes are not functional on RH/CentOS without providing dependency packages from extra repositories.
See their respective documentation below for related repositories and packages.
The apache::mod::passenger
and apache::mod::proxy_html
classes are untested because repositories are missing compatible packages.
The apache::mod::passenger
class is not installing, because the the EL6 repository is missing compatible packages.
The apache::mod::passenger
and apache::mod::proxy_html
classes are untested because the EL7 repository is missing compatible packages, which also blocks us from testing the apache::vhost
defined type's rack_base_uris
parameter.
If SELinux is in enforcing mode and you want to use custom paths for logroot
, mod_dir
, vhost_dir
, and docroot
, you need to manage the files' context yourself.
You can do this with Puppet:
exec { 'set_apache_defaults':
command => 'semanage fcontext -a -t httpd_sys_content_t "/custom/path(/.*)?"',
path => '/bin:/usr/bin/:/sbin:/usr/sbin',
require => Package['policycoreutils-python'],
}
package { 'policycoreutils-python':
ensure => installed,
}
exec { 'restorecon_apache':
command => 'restorecon -Rv /apache_spec',
path => '/bin:/usr/bin/:/sbin:/usr/sbin',
before => Class['Apache::Service'],
require => Class['apache'],
}
class { 'apache': }
host { 'test.server':
ip => '127.0.0.1',
}
file { '/custom/path':
ensure => directory,
}
file { '/custom/path/include':
ensure => present,
content => '#additional_includes',
}
apache::vhost { 'test.server':
docroot => '/custom/path',
additional_includes => '/custom/path/include',
}
You must set the contexts using semanage fcontext
instead of chcon
because Puppet's file
resources reset the values' context in the database if the resource doesn't specify it.
The apache::vhost::WSGIImportScript
parameter creates a statement inside the virtual host that is unsupported on older versions of Apache, causing it to fail. This will be remedied in a future refactoring.
The [apache::mod::suphp
][] class is untested since repositories are missing compatible packages.
Puppet modules on the Puppet Forge are open projects, and community contributions are essential for keeping them great. We can’t access the huge number of platforms and myriad hardware, software, and deployment configurations that Puppet is intended to serve.
We want to make it as easy as possible to contribute changes so our modules work in your environment, but we also need contributors to follow a few guidelines to help us maintain and improve the modules' quality.
For more information, please read the complete module contribution guide.
This project contains tests for both rspec-puppet and beaker-rspec to verify functionality. For detailed information on using these tools, please see their respective documentation.
