Hi.I'm currently reading a tutorial about apache server Installation.I've come to a section describing the IfModule and how to use It to edit the prefork and worker MPM settings.I have no idea how to access It.The syntax <IfModule....> confuses me.
Any assistance would be appreciated!

Just reading I'm not a server user (yet(?)) but found more to read stackoverflow....apache-prefork-vs-worker-mpm
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/core.html
http://www.proftpd.org/docs/directiv..._IfModule.html

Thanks! I'll take a look

The two articles didn't help me figure out how to access the IfModule.

These are configuration directives in the Apache configuration file. In Debian, this file is usually located in /etc/apache2/httpd.conf. Note that this files also includes other configurations from, among other places, /etc/apache2/conf.d.

Thanks for replying. httpd.conf and conf.d both appear to be empty.I open them within the etc/apache2/ directory.

Then it is likely they are in the vhost definition (in /etc/apache2/sites-available)

I checked the default and default-ssl files in the sites-available directory and there Is nothing referring to the IfModule.

default file:

<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerAdmin webmaster@localhost

DocumentRoot /var/www
<Directory />
Options FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride None
</Directory>
<Directory /var/www/>
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
AllowOverride None
Order allow,deny
allow from all
</Directory>

ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ /usr/lib/cgi-bin/
<Directory "/usr/lib/cgi-bin">
AllowOverride None
Options +ExecCGI -MultiViews +SymLinksIfOwnerMatch

Interesting, in all my Debian Squeze servers, /etc/apache2/httpd.conf contains the basic server configuration with the per-site configuration in /etc/apache2/sites-available. You might also want to look in /etc/apache2/modules-available; it's possible that things may have been split up a bit further. Somewhere in the /etc/apache2 directory there will be a main configuration file (usually called apache2.conf or httpd.conf) that includes the files in sites-enabled (which has symlinks back to sites-available) and modules-enabled (which likewise has symlinks back to modules-available). I don't particularly like how Debian sets up the Apache2 config by default. It's nice how things are split into small, easily-editable files, but sometimes it can make it a bit of a chore to find the configuration directives that you're looking for.

I'll keep looking!

They're In apache2.conf.I didn't scroll down (insert blushing face here)!
