A2ENCONF(8)A2ENCONF(8)NAME
a2enconf, a2disconf - enable or disable an apache2 configuration file
SYNOPSIS
a2enconf [ [-q|--quiet] configuration]
a2disconf [ [-q|--quiet] configuration]
DESCRIPTION
This manual page documents briefly the a2enconf and a2disconf commands.
a2enconf is a script that enables the specified configuration file
within the apache2 configuration. It does this by creating symlinks
within /etc/apache2/conf-enabled. Likewise, a2disconf disables a spe‐
cific configuration part by removing those symlinks. It is not an
error to enable a configuration which is already enabled, or to disable
one which is already disabled.
Note that many configuration file may have a dependency to specific
modules. Unlike module dependencies, these are not resolved automati‐
cally. Configuration fragments stored in the conf-available directory
are considered non-essential or being installed and manged by reverse
dependencies (e.g. web scripts).
OPTIONS-q, --quiet
Don't show informative messages.
-m, --maintmode
Enables the maintainer mode, that is the program invocation is
effectuated automatically by a maintainer script. This switch
should not be used by end users. -p, --purge When disabling a
module, purge all traces of the module in the internal state
data base.
EXIT STATUS
a2enconf and a2disconf exit with status 0 if all configurations are
processed successfully, 1 if errors occur, 2 if an invalid option was
used.
EXAMPLES
a2enconf security
a2disconf charset
Enables Apache security directives stored in the security configuration
files, and disables the charset configuration.
FILES
/etc/apache2/conf-available
Directory with files giving information on available configura‐
tion files.
/etc/apache2/conf-enabled
Directory with links to the files in conf-available for enabled
configuration files.
