6 Working With Open-Source
Applications
Become familiar with the open-source applications
Mac OS X Server uses to administer and deliver web
services.
Several open-source applications provide essential features of web service. These
applications include:
• Apache web server
• JBoss application server
• Tomcat servlet container
• MySQL database
Apache
Apache is the http web server provided with Mac OS X Server. You can use the Server
Admin application to manage most server operations, but in some instances you may
want to add or change parts of the open-source Apache server. In such situations, you
need to modify Apache configuration files and change or add modules.
