A2ENCONF(8)                 System Manager's Manual                A2ENCONF(8)

NAME
       a2enconf, a2disconf - enable or disable an apache2 configuration file

SYNOPSIS
       a2enconf [ [-q|--quiet] configuration]

       a2disconf [ [-q|--quiet] 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 spe-
       cific configuration part by removing those symlinks.  It is not an  er-
       ror  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 automati-
       cally. 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.

FILES
       /etc/apache2/conf-available
              Directory with files giving information on available  configura-
              tion files.

       /etc/apache2/conf-enabled
              Directory  with links to the files in conf-available for enabled
              configuration files.
