<div class="sectionbody">
<div class="paragraph">
<p>You probably want to run something on your web server. Many of the most popular web applications are packaged for Fedora. Using the packaged versions of web applications is recommended. These packages will be configured following the distribution&#8217;s best practices which help to ensure the security of the installation.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>For instance, by installing static files to locations the web server does not have the ability to write to, and doing access control with configuration files rather than <code>.htaccess</code> files, which are slightly more vulnerable to attack.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Packaged web applications will also be configured to work with SELinux, which provides significant security benefits.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>You will also receive updates through the usual Fedora update process, making it easier to keep your installation up to date.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>They will also often have the default configuration tweaked according to Fedora&#8217;s conventions, meaning you have to do less work to get the application up and running.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Most web applications are simply packaged according to their name. For instance, you can install Wordpress by executing the following command:</p>
</div>
<div class="listingblock">
<div class="content">
<pre># dnf install wordpress</pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Packaged web applications will usually provide Fedora-specific instructions in a documentation file. For instance, Wordpress provides the files <code>/usr/share/doc/wordpress/README.fedora</code> and <code>/usr/share/doc/wordpress/README.fedora-multiuser</code>.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Packaged web applications usually restrict access by default so you can access them only from the server host itself, to ensure you can run all initial configuration safely and things like administration interfaces are not left accessible to the public. For information on how to broaden access, see <a href="#enabling-access-to-web-applications">Enabling access to web applications</a>.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Web applications commonly require the use of a database server. This wiki contains information on installing and configuring <a href="https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/PostgreSQL">PostgreSQL</a> and <a href="https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/MariaDB">MariaDB</a> on Fedora.</p>

<div class="sectionbody">
<div class="paragraph">
<p><code>/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf</code> is the main Apache configuration file. Custom confirguration files are specified under <code>/etc/httpd/conf.d/*.conf</code>. If the same settings are specified in both <code>/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf</code> and a <code>.conf</code> file in <code>/etc/httpd/conf.d/</code>, the setting from the <code>/etc/httpd/conf.d/</code> file will be used.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Files in <code>/etc/httpd/conf.d/</code> are read in alphabetical order: a setting from <code>/etc/httpd/conf.d/z-foo.conf</code> will be used over a setting from <code>/etc/httpd/conf.d/foo.conf</code>. Similarly, a setting from <code>/etc/httpd/conf.d/99-foo.conf</code>, will be used over a setting from <code>/etc/httpd/conf.d/00-foo.conf</code>.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>As a best practice, do not modify <code>/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf</code> or any of the <code>/etc/httpd/conf.d</code> files shipped by Fedora packages directly. If you make any local changes to these files, then any changes to them in newer package versions will not be directly applied. Instead, a <code>.rpmnew</code> file will be created, and you will have to merge the changes manually.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>It is recommended to create a new file in <code>/etc/httpd/conf.d</code> which will take precedence over the file you wish to modify, and edit the required settings. For instance, to change a setting specified in <code>/etc/httpd/conf.d/foo.conf</code> you could create the file <code>/etc/httpd/conf.d/z-foo-local.conf</code>, and place your setting in that file.</p>

<p>By default Fedora-packaged web applications are usually configured such that, access is allowed only from the localhost. This is defined by the file <code>/etc/httpd/conf.d/webapp.conf</code> which contains the following settings:</p>
</div>
<div class="listingblock">
<div class="content">
<pre>&lt;Directory /usr/share/webapp&gt;

Allow from ::1
&lt;/IfModule&gt;
&lt;/Directory&gt;</pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Before allowing general access to the webapp, ensure to do the following:</p>
</div>
<div class="ulist checklist">
<ul class="checklist">
<li>
<p><i class="fa fa-check-square-o"></i> Webapp has been configured correctly</p>

<div class="paragraph">
<p>To broaden access to the application, create a file <code>/etc/httpd/conf.d/z-webapp-allow.conf</code>. To allow access to all systems on a typical local network, add the following lines into the file:</p>
</div>
<div class="listingblock">
<div class="content">
<pre>&lt;Directory /usr/share/webapp&gt;
&lt;IfModule mod_authz_core.c&gt;

Allow from 127.0.0.1
Allow from ::1
Allow from 192.168.1
&lt;/IfModule&gt;
&lt;/Directory&gt;</pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
