NAME
a2enmod, a2dismod - enable or disable an apache2 module
SYNOPSIS
a2enmod
[ [-q|--quiet]
module]
a2dismod
[ [-q|--quiet]
module]
DESCRIPTION
This manual page documents briefly the
a2enmod
and
a2dismod
commands.
a2enmod
is a script that enables the specified module within the
apache2
configuration. It does this by creating symlinks within
/etc/apache2/mods-enabled.
Likewise,
a2dismod
disables a module by removing those symlinks. It is not an error to
enable a module which is already enabled, or to disable one which is
already disabled.
Note that many modules have, in addition to a .load file, an
associated .conf file. Enabling the module puts the configuration
directives in the .conf file as directives into the main server context of
apache2.

data base.

modules
are processed successfully, 1 if errors occur, 2 if an invalid option was used.
