Apache Handlers For cPanel version 11.30
Apache handlers control how your site’s Apache web server software manages certain file types and file extensions.
Apache comes configured to handle CGI scripts and server-parsed files. Their file extensions include: .cgi, .pl, .plx, .ppl, .perl, and .shtml.
You can configure Apache to handle a new file type with an existing handler by manually adding the handler and extension to cPanel.
For example, to have the server treat files with the extension .example as CGI files, you would type ”cgi-script” under Handler and “.example” under Extension(s).
How to update Apache in Cpanel Servers?
The EasyApache (Apache Update) feature is responsible for updating Apache (along with other applications and libraries).
We must update Apache manually. Apache will not update when you run /scripts/upcp.
Find and use EasyApache:
WHM (in browser) Main >> Software >> EasyApache (Apache Update)
Command line /scripts/easyapache
Whenever you run EasyApache, you are prompted to select the version of Apache you wish to use. If you choose a new version number, EasyApache will update Apache accordingly. It may be important to check back frequently as new Apache builds become available.
