• Our team is looking to connect with folks who use email services provided by Plesk, or a premium service. If you'd like to be part of the discovery process and share your experiences, we invite you to complete this short screening survey.

  • The BIND DNS server has already been deprecated and removed from Plesk for Windows.
    If a Plesk for Windows server is still using BIND, the upgrade to Plesk Obsidian 18.0.70 will be unavailable until the administrator switches the DNS server to Microsoft DNS. We strongly recommend transitioning to Microsoft DNS within the next 6 weeks, before the Plesk 18.0.70 release.
  • The Horde component is removed from Plesk Installer. We recommend switching to another webmail software supported in Plesk.

What options do I have to execute a bash script when I receive an http request?

python

Regular Pleskian
Is there a simple way to run a bash script from apache every time I receive an http request?

Absolutely, yes. You can for instance redirect every single request, no matter what file type it is, by .htaccess to a .php file. In that file you can use exec(), shellexec() or system() to run a shell command.
 
Hello, thanks, this is a simple way, but I need something more effective, really what I want to avoid with this, is to save resources like memory, bandwidth ..., it is not possible to execute a bash script at the level of system when Receive a request, or at least http requests, by sending the bash command from the apache configuration (httpd.conf).


Apache modules or extensions use that technique, for example, the Variti extension, this last extension does not work because it does not fit my needs
