Overview:

Apache handlers control how your site’s Apache web server software manages certain file types and file extensions.

Apache can handle CGI scripts and server-parsed files. The file extensions for these files include .cgi, .pl, .plx, .ppl, .perl, and .shtml.

You can configure Apache to use an existing handler to handle a new file type. To do this, manually add the handler and extension in this interface.

Create an Apache Handler

To add an Apache handler, perform the following steps:

1. Enter the handler name in the Handler text box. cPanel includes the following built-in handlers:

   • default-handler — Sends the file and uses Apache’s default handler for static content.
   • send-as-is — Sends the file with HTTP headers intact.
   • cgi-script — Handles the file as a CGI script.

   • imap-file — Parses the file as an imagemap rule file.

     • For more information, read Apache’s documentation.

   • server-info — Retrieves the server’s configuration information.

   • server-parsed — Parses the file for server-side includes.

   • server-status — Retrieves the server’s status report.

   • type-map — Parses the file as a type map file.

     • For more information, read Apache’s documentation.

2. Enter the file extension in the Extension(s) text box.

   • A file extension consists of the letters after the dot (.) in a file name (for example, filename.fileextension).
   • Space-separate multiple extensions (for example, .cgi .pl .ppl).

3. Click Add.

Remove an Apache Handler

To remove a user-defined handler, perform the following steps:

1. Click Delete under the Remove heading for the appropriate handler in the User Defined Apache Handlers table.
2. Click Yes.
