ApacheConf

Sergey Zimin writes "ApacheConf is a shell for configuring Apache web servers, that will help you to tune the main configuration file httpd.conf. ApacheConf presents all the information in the file httpd.conf in a structured view. All of the server's directives are grouped by categories (Global parameters, Main server's parameters, Directories, Virtual hosts, etc) and all these groups are represented as a tree. Therefore you can see the entire structure of the server at a glance and you can easily manage all of the server's directives, as well as the directories and virtual hosts. You save time, as you don't have to use notepad for configuring your server! ApacheConf has advanced description all of the server's directives and parameters. It will help the beginner to quickly master the Apache server. For the experienced user it will become an indispensable administrative tool."

    • Runs on WINDOWS ONLY
    • Comes as crippleware - costs $19.95 to actually make it usable
    Talk about a waste of effort.

    ApacheConf looks pretty complete from the screenshots but I just wanted to mention that there is an alternative open source gui configuration tool for Apache called Comanche which works on a number of platforms.

      Then there's redhat's apacheconf , which is a GTK based GUI for apache, or also linuxconf which uses Xwindows, curses or a web interface, or you could use webmin via a web interface, all open source tools. Personally I like to do it by hand as I haven't come across anything that lets me specify php settings per virtual host, but that's just me.
