Discover the power and versatility of the Apache Web Server in our comprehensive course, “Apache Web Server For Beginners.” This course is designed to take you from the fundamentals to advanced concepts of managing the Apache HTTP Server, also known as Apache HTTPD. Whether you’re a newcomer to web servers or looking to solidify your knowledge, this course offers a structured approach to mastering the Apache Server.
We begin with the essentials, introducing you to the world of web servers and the critical role the Apache HTTP server plays in hosting websites. You’ll learn how to install Apache on CentOS 7.4 and configure it to start automatically upon system boot. We’ll guide you through setting up your firewall to ensure your Apache Server is secure and accessible.
Understanding the directory structure is crucial for effective server management. We’ll delve into the Apache directory layout and the primary configuration files. You’ll create your first web page and understand where and how Apache HTTPD stores your website files.
The course then moves on to virtual hosts, a powerful feature that allows you to host multiple websites on a single Apache Web Server. You’ll set up both name-based and port-based virtual hosts, giving you the flexibility to manage various domains and subdomains.
In the section on aliases and redirects, you’ll learn how to configure URL aliases and set up redirects, enhancing the navigation and user experience of your websites. Logging is another vital aspect we’ll cover extensively. You’ll explore error logs, access logs, and custom logs, and learn how to implement log rotation to maintain optimal performance of your Apache HTTP Server.
Security is a paramount concern for any web administrator. We’ll teach you the basics of securing your Apache Server, including setting up free TLS/SSL certificates, configuring basic and digest authentication, and implementing access control. You’ll also learn how to use .htaccess files from both the administrator and user perspectives, install and configure antivirus software, and mitigate DoS attacks using mod_evasive.
Finally, we’ll focus on performance and troubleshooting. You’ll understand how to optimize Apache HTTPD using Multi-Processing Modules (MPMs) and adjust the httpd.conf file for better efficiency. We’ll show you how to analyze access logs to troubleshoot issues and introduce you to Apachetop, a tool for real-time monitoring of your Web Server traffic.
By the end of this course, you’ll have a solid foundation in using the Apache HTTP Server. You’ll be equipped with the skills to install, configure, secure, and optimize an Apache Web Server, preparing you to handle real-world web hosting scenarios confidently. Join us and take the first step toward becoming an Apache expert!
