Apache Study Things for Interview

Lakshmana

I have spoke to my friend for getting a new Linux L 1 Support job.He said me that i should exposure in troubleshooting in Apache or else go to learning center to learn the RHEL to to get a job.

I dont believe in the learning center now-a-days.
But my friend said me provide the resume filled with the linux works to get a linux job.But it is good?

I think i can have elloboration in briefing my resume in windows and can i say the testing parts in linux with the apache or whatever the things in linux?
Whether this decision is good?

Best thing to do is install the version of Linux that they will be testing on, install Apache (HTTPD) and configure it for a lot of things manually.

Start with something like CentOS, SuSE, or Ubuntu, and then install and configure Apache on them for hosting products like NextCloud, or Wordpress, or other web based applications.

Not that I know of. But they are free to download and run yourself.

Not likely nearly as useful to running the real thing.

Like SAM said: Install and use it.
Get used to the configuration system on Debian, CentOS and maybe SuSE.
Understand logging
Try the following mods: mod_auth_* mod_authn_* mod_cgi mod_php mod_proxy* mod_ssl. Here's a full list https://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/de/mod/

Next, forget about Apache and use nginx

Get Debian / Ubuntu and do a

sudo apt-get install apache

Job done. OR get CentOS and do a

yum install httpd

Nothing compares with getting hands-on.

I like my scotch the way I like my webservers.

Poured over rocks and swirled...... wait, this is a terrible analogy.
