Hi folks,
We have a serious issue with the current Apache httpd package, which is an indispensable service for a server these days.
The issue is basically the default configuration as provided by the package: - if you create just one server in den .conf directory, it results in a non-functional https configuration - the configuration uses items, that are deprecated since version 2.4 - the default layout of the default configuration is currently not suitable
I wrote a bug report about it: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2258121
Unfortunately we are experiencing a common Fedora problem, nobody responds to it and the bug reports are left unprocessed and pile up. And because none of the maintainers respond at all, we have now also missed all the deadlines for improving something for f40.
Technically an improvement is more than simple. It’s just a change in the configuration files, as far as I see.
Any idea how to proceed with this?
- Would someone take the bug report and check my analyses? - Is there any way to bring this forward? - Should we create a new https-server package which takes the binaries and provides an alternative configuration? Probably similar to default-editor-vim / default-editor-nano?
As it currently stands, we are in no way competitive with, for example, Debian or ArchLinux.
