NAME

       a2enconf, a2disconf - enable or disable an apache2 configuration file

SYNOPSIS

       a2enconf [-q|--quiet] [-m|--maintmode] [ configuration ]

       a2disconf [-q|--quiet] [-m|--maintmode] [-p|--purge] [ 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 specific
       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 automatically. 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.

              Directory with files giving information on available configuration files.

       /etc/apache2/conf-enabled
