AddType / AddHandler Not Working - apache

I'm working on a mac running OS X Lion and PHP 5.3.6 and have tried both AddType, AddHander, and AllowOverride has been set to ALL in the httpd.conf; however, the PHP codes in HTML/JS/CSS files are still parsed as text. Files ending with .php are all good. I'm now getting really desperate after hours of googling.
Here are the contents of my .htaccess file:
AddType application/x-httpd-php5 .html .js .css
AddType application/x-httpd-php .html .js .css
AddHandler application/x-httpd-php5 .html .js .css
AddHandler application/x-httpd-php.html .js .css

If your site is stored in your user's Sites folder (i.e. /Users/username/Sites/) then you also need to set AllowOveride in the user-specific configuration file in /etc/apache2/users/username.conf. After making the change restart apache by disabling and re-enabling Web Sharing in the Sharing preference pane.

The AddType procedure (at least on Mac OS X Server) requires:
one and only extension per line
no dots before the extension
AddType application/x-httpd-php php
Have a look at /private/etc/apache2/httpd.conf for running examples.
(You should also remove the AddHandler procedures.)

I ran into same problem and fixed with:
<Files ~ "\.(gif|htm|txt|css|jpg|png)$">
SetHandler default-handler
</Files>

SSI IF Statement error

I am having troubles with the if statement of SSI. I have reinstalled OSes on two computers (one with win7, the other with win8) and installed WAMP on them. Then I have put my old projects in the folder. After I have opened the project where I'm using SSI if I get the following error message:
[an error occurred while processing this directive]
The problem is that when I open those files at work and my laptop I do not get this error missing.
After that I have switched to XAMPP, but get the same error again.
I am using the following statement:
<!--#if expr="$DOCUMENT_NAME = home.html"-->
<body class="home">
<!--#else-->
<body>
<!--#endif-->
And it seems to enter the if statement, because it puts the body class ".home", and after that comes the message.
Everything else, but the if statement works. I have separated my header.shtml and footer.shtml and the ssi loads them in the site. But when I use if - it breakes.
I don't think it is related, but in case - this how my .htaccess file looks like:
Options +Includes
AddHandler server-parsed .shtml .html .htm
Add SSILegacyExprParser on to your .htaccess
Refer this link.
You also need to change the httpd.conf file as SSI is not turned on in Apache by default.
Find this section of the httpd.conf file
#
# Filters allow you to process content before it is sent to the client.
#
# To parse .shtml files for server-side includes (SSI):
# (You will also need to add "Includes" to the "Options" directive.)
#
#AddType text/html .shtml
#AddOutputFilter INCLUDES .shtml
And change it to
#
# Filters allow you to process content before it is sent to the client.
#
# To parse .shtml files for server-side includes (SSI):
# (You will also need to add "Includes" to the "Options" directive.)
#
AddType text/html .shtml
AddOutputFilter INCLUDES .shtml

apache2 and php5-fpm, how to correctly process *.phps files?

I've setup my server using apache2 and php5-fpm, pretty much like in this guide:
http://www.versatilewebsolutions.com/blog/2012/11/installing-apache-2-with-php-fastcgi-on-ubuntu-12-10.html
The only question left is, how can I configure it to correctly process the *.phps files?
I want to show the highlighted code of them.
There are guides for nginx and php-fpm ( https://blog.kamalnasser.net/post/highlighting-phps-files-in-nginx/ ), but what should we do with apache2 ?
Caveats: Ubuntu 14.10, Apache/2.4.10
In the file /etc/apache2/mods-available/php5.conf:
<FilesMatch ".+\.phps$">
SetHandler application/x-httpd-php-source
# Deny access to raw php sources by default
# To re-enable it's recommended to enable access to the files
# only in specific virtual host or directory
Order Deny,Allow
Deny from all
</FilesMatch>
Add a with "Allow from all" (or something more appropriate to your paranoia-level) to you host config, and you'll be all set.
My config:
<Directory /my/very/long/and/winding/server/path/public_html/phpsource/>
<FilesMatch ".+\.phps$">
Order Deny,Allow
Allow from all
</FilesMatch>
</Directory>
Php Source files in other directories get denied, the ones in that directory gets displayed. It works like a charm...
This should do it:
AddType application/x-httpd-php-source .phps
Add it to your apache config file. There should be a similar line like this:
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php
So just add it below.

configure apache run run php in html pages

How can I make apache parse php code inside my html pages? I don't wanna use .htaccess. I've added:
AddType application/x-httpd-php .html
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php
in my vhost file for one of the websites but it won't work.
Did you build your Apache binary with PHP? Or if you built a SO, reference it in the Apache config (e.g.: LoadModule php5_module modules/libphp5.so)?
When using .html for PHP, ensure 'AddType text/html .html' is removed, so it doesn't conflict with the x-httpd-php reference.
FYI -- you can create one entry 'AddType application/x-httpd-php .html .php'
I have the same problem in the latest versions (Debian 10 , Apache 2.4.25, PHP 7.0.33)
My solution is edit the php.config file, to find it I put:
find -iname php*.conf
...and in my debian instalation I found it in:
/etc/apache2/mods-available/php7.0.conf
Then, I introduce those lines at begining:
<FilesMatch ".+\.html$">
SetHandler application/x-httpd-php
</FilesMatch>
And it work for me.

Server-side includes (SSI) stop working when on https (ssl)

My server side includes work fine when accessing the website through http, but when trying to access the site securely (which is all set up sweet) they just don't get included.
I'm using the following code in the one file inside my apache2/sites-enabled directory:
<Directory /var/www/html>
Options +Includes
AddType text/html .htm
AddOutputFilter INCLUDES .htm
</Directory>
Any ideas about where to look?
Got it. I had only put the above code into the virtualhost section for the ordinary port, not the ssl port.

How can I pre-compress files with mod_deflate in Apache 2.x?

I am serving all content through apache with Content-Encoding: zip but that compresses on the fly. A good amount of my content is static files on the disk. I want to gzip the files beforehand rather than compressing them every time they are requested.
This is something that, I believe, mod_gzip did in Apache 1.x automatically, but just having the file with .gz next to it. That's no longer the case with mod_deflate.
This functionality was misplaced in mod_gzip anyway. In Apache 2.x, you do that with content negotiation. Specifically, you need to enable MultiViews with the Options directive and you need to specify your encoding types with the AddEncoding directive.
To answer my own question with the really simple line I was missing in my confiuration:
Options FollowSymLinks MultiViews
I was missing the MultiViews option. It's there in the Ubuntu default web server configuration, so don't be like me and drop it off.
Also I wrote a quick Rake task to compress all the files.
namespace :static do
desc "Gzip compress the static content so Apache doesn't need to do it on-the-fly."
task :compress do
puts "Gzipping js, html and css files."
Dir.glob("#{RAILS_ROOT}/public/**/*.{js,html,css}") do |file|
system "gzip -c -9 #{file} > #{file}.gz"
end
end
end
I am afraid MultiViews will not work as expected: the doc says Multiviews works "if the server receives a request for /some/dir/foo, if /some/dir has MultiViews enabled, and /some/dir/foo does not exist...", in other words: if you have a file foo.js and foo.js.gz in the same directory, just activating MultiViews will not cause the .gz file to be sent even if the AcceptEncoding gzip header is transmitted by the browser (you can verify this behavior by temporarily disabling mod_deflate and monitoring the response with e.g. HTTPFox).
I am not sure if there is a way around this with MultiViews (maybe you can rename the original file and then add a special AddEncoding directive), but I believe you can construct a mod_rewrite rule to handle this.
It is possible to serve pre-compressed files using mod_negotiation although it is a bit finicky. The primary difficulty is that only requests for files which do not exist are negotiated. So if foo.js and foo.js.gz both exist, responses for /foo.js will always be uncompressed (although responses for /foo would work correctly).
The easiest solution I've found (from François Marier) is to rename uncompressed files with a double file extension, so foo.js is deployed as foo.js.js so requests for /foo.js negotiate between foo.js.js (no encoding) and foo.js.gz (gzip encoding).
I combine that trick with the following configuration:
Options +MultiViews
RemoveType .gz
AddEncoding gzip .gz
# Send .tar.gz without Content-Encoding: gzip
<FilesMatch ".+\.tar\.gz$">
RemoveEncoding .gz
# Note: Can use application/x-gzip for backwards-compatibility
AddType application/gzip .gz
</FilesMatch>
I wrote a post which discusses the reasoning for this configuration and some alternatives in detail.
I have an Apache 2 built from source, and I found I had to modify the following in my httpd.conf file:
Add MultiViews to Options:
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
Uncomment AddEncoding:
AddEncoding x-compress .Z
AddEncoding x-gzip .gz .tgz
Comment AddType:
#AddType application/x-compress .Z
#AddType application/x-gzip .gz .tgz
mod_gzip compressed content on the fly as well. You can pre-compress the files by actually logging into your server, and doing it from shell.
cd /var/www/.../data/
for file in *; do
gzip -c $file > $file.gz;
done;
You can use mod_cache to proxy local content in memory or on disk. I don't know if this will work as expected with mod_deflate.
I have a lot of big .json files. Most readers are in this situation. The preview answers didn't talk about the returned "Content-type".
I you want the following request return a pre-compressed file with "Content-Type: application/json" transparently, use Multiview with ForceType
http://www.domain.com/(...)/bigfile.json
-> Content-Encoding:gzip, Content-Type: Content-Encoding:gzip
1) files must be rename: "file.ext.ext"
2) Multiview works great with ForceType
In the file system:
// Note there is no bigfile.json
(...)/bigfile.json.gz
(...)/bigfile.json.json
In your apache config:
<Directory (...)>
AddEncoding gzip .gz
Options +Multiviews
<Files *.json.gz>
ForceType application/json
</Files>
</Directory>
Short and simple :)
