PROBLEM: Hi, I have been getting "mod_proxy" messages in logwatch (below) and would like to disable mod_proxy.
SOLUTION: I know how to disable it (see below) but...
QUESTION: Is it safe to disable mod_proxy, or will I break my PLESK 8.6 on CentOS 5.1?
Thx! : )
Jim

---how to disable mod_proxy---
1. Disable mod_proxy
2. Disable CONNECT
1. To disable mod_proxy comment out these lines in /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf
#LoadModule proxy_module modules/mod_proxy.so
#LoadModule proxy_ftp_module modules/mod_proxy_ftp.so
#LoadModule proxy_http_module modules/mod_proxy_http.so
#LoadModule proxy_connect_module modules/mod_proxy_connect.so
Also comment out everything in /etc/httpd/conf.d/proxy_ajp.conf
if present.
2. It seems there is a bug somewhere so that even when mod_proxy disabled
a CONNECT attempt will return a 200 (success) status code and the contents of
your index.php file. To stop this make a file called /etc/httpd/conf.d/disable_connect.conf and fill it with:
<Location />
<Limit CONNECT>
Order deny,allow
Deny from all
</Limit>
</Location>
Restart Apache.
