Configuring the Apache2 Web Server

Enabling Apache2's Rewrite module

Koha uses Apache2's Rewrite module to manipulate URLs. To allow this we need

to enable the module using the

a2enmod command:

koha @1i190 -245 : /$ sudo a2enmod rewrite

Configuring the listener

If you intend to use ports other than 80, you will need to configure the

Listen

directive. On Debian we add this directive to the

ports . conf file:

koha @1i190 -245:/$ sudo vi /etc /apache2 /ports.conf

And on openSuSE, we add this to the file

listen. conf:

koha @1i190 -245:/$ sudo vi /etc /apache2 /listen.conf

We add the directive in this manner:

Listen 8080

Editing the OPAC virtual host

Now we modify Koha's virtual hosts file to include elements of our configuration

plan. First we set the IP address in the first line of the Virtual Host block. Something

like this:

## OPAC

If you want to use any IP address on the server, use " * ":

## OPAC

Next we setup Koha's host name in the

Sp.rverName

directive.

ServerName libcat.mylibrary.org

If are not using a host name, leave this Directive untouched.

Next, we add the
