On my testing server I want to listen to: 127.0.0.1

and on my productaion server I want to listen to:

.###.###.

I am searching for something like that:

<if #server=>
Listen 127.0.0.1
</if #server=>

There is something like that in apache?

Thank you.

VirtualHost might be what you are needing

<VirtualHost *:80>
..... Directives.....
</VirtualHost>

Or IP based VirtualHost on each server.

<VirtualHost 127.0.0.1:80>
..... Directives.....
</VirtualHost>

etc..

Could you just run two separate apache instances listening on separate ports. There would be less of a chance of the testing environment causing problems for your production server. Also restarts would not affect your production environment

  • No, this is two differences server. (My office, and Web farm). I want to be able to just copy the httpd.conf every time I change something. – Shluch Feb 12 '13 at 07:04

You can add -DTEST to the httpd command line and then use

<IfDefine TEST>
</IfDefine>

and

<IfDefine !TEST>
</IfDefine>

to enable different sections of the config file.

  • Can I do it without command line? like reading from the system environment? – Shluch Feb 12 '13 at 10:44
  • Not that I'm aware of, but if you use a script to start httpd you could do the test there, e.g `httpd -D${MYENVVAR:-PRODUCTION}` – Per Johansson Feb 12 '13 at 12:21
