This section explains how to set up a SearXNG instance using the HTTP server Apache_.
 | 
						|
If you did use the :ref:`installation scripts` and do not have any special preferences
 | 
						|
you can install the :ref:`SearXNG site <apache searxng site>` using
 | 
						|
:ref:`searxng.sh <searxng.sh overview>`:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
.. code:: bash
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
   $ sudo -H ./utils/searxng.sh install apache
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
If you have special interests or problems with setting up Apache, the following
 | 
						|
section might give you some guidance.

The Apache HTTP server
 | 
						|
======================
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
If Apache_ is not installed, install it now. If apache_ is new to you, the
 | 
						|
`Getting Started`_, `Configuration Files`_ and `Terms Used to Describe
 | 
						|
Directives`_ documentation gives first orientation.  There is also a list of
 | 
						|
`Apache directives`_ *to keep in the pocket*.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
.. tabs::
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
   .. group-tab:: Ubuntu / debian
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
      .. code:: bash
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
         sudo -H apt-get install apache2
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
   .. group-tab:: Arch Linux
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
      .. code:: bash
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
         sudo -H pacman -S apache
 | 
						|
         sudo -H systemctl enable httpd
 | 
						|
         sudo -H systemctl start http
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
   .. group-tab::  Fedora / RHEL
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
      .. code:: bash
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
         sudo -H dnf install httpd
 | 
						|
         sudo -H systemctl enable httpd
 | 
						|
         sudo -H systemctl start httpd
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Now at http://localhost you should see some kind of *Welcome* or *Test* page.
 | 
						|
How this default site is configured, depends on the linux distribution
 | 
						|
(compare `Apache directives`_).
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
.. tabs::
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
   .. group-tab:: Ubuntu / debian
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
      .. code:: bash
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
         less /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/000-default.conf
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
      In this file, there is a line setting the `DocumentRoot`_ directive:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
      .. code:: apache
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
         DocumentRoot /var/www/html
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
      And the *welcome* page is the HTML file at ``/var/www/html/index.html``.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
   .. group-tab:: Arch Linux
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
      .. code:: bash
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
         less /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
      In this file, there is a line setting the `DocumentRoot`_ directive:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
      .. code:: apache
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
         DocumentRoot "/srv/http"
 | 
						|
         <Directory "/srv/http">
 | 
						|
             Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
 | 
						|
             AllowOverride None
 | 
						|
             Require all granted
 | 
						|
         </Directory>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
      The *welcome* page of Arch Linux is a page showing the directory located
 | 
						|
      at ``DocumentRoot``.  This *directory* page is generated by the Module
 | 
						|
      `mod_autoindex <https://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/mod/mod_autoindex.html>`_:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
      .. code:: apache
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
         LoadModule autoindex_module modules/mod_autoindex.so
 | 
						|
         ...
 | 
						|
         Include conf/extra/httpd-autoindex.conf
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
   .. group-tab::  Fedora / RHEL
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
      .. code:: bash
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
         less /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
      In this file, there is a line setting the ``DocumentRoot`` directive:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
      .. code:: apache
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
          DocumentRoot "/var/www/html"
 | 
						|
          ...
 | 
						|
          <Directory "/var/www">
 | 
						|
              AllowOverride None
 | 
						|
              # Allow open access:
 | 
						|
              Require all granted
 | 
						|
          </Directory>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
      On fresh installations, the ``/var/www`` is empty and the *default
 | 
						|
      welcome page* is shown, the configuration is located at::
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
        less /etc/httpd/conf.d/welcome.conf
 | 
						|
 | 
						|

Debian's Apache layout
 | 
						|
----------------------
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Be aware, Debian's Apache layout is quite different from the standard Apache
 | 
						|
configuration.  For details look at the apache2.README.Debian_
 | 
						|
(``/usr/share/doc/apache2/README.Debian.gz``).  Some commands you should know on
 | 
						|
Debian:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
* :man:`apache2ctl`:  Apache HTTP server control interface
 | 
						|
* :man:`a2enmod`, :man:`a2dismod`: switch on/off modules
 | 
						|
* :man:`a2enconf`, :man:`a2disconf`: switch on/off configurations
 | 
						|
* :man:`a2ensite`, :man:`a2dissite`: switch on/off sites
 |

Apache modules
 | 
						|
--------------
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
To load additional modules, in most distributions you have to uncomment the
 | 
						|
lines with the corresponding LoadModule_ directive, except in :ref:`Debian's
 | 
						|
Apache layout`.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
.. tabs::

 | 
						|
      :ref:`Debian's Apache layout` uses :man:`a2enmod` and :man:`a2dismod` to
 | 
						|
      activate or disable modules:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
      .. code:: bash
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
         sudo -H a2enmod ssl
 |

.. tabs::
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
   .. group-tab:: Ubuntu / debian
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
      In :ref:`Debian's Apache layout` you create a ``searxng.conf`` with the
 | 
						|
      ``<Location /searxng >`` directive and save this file in the *sites
 | 
						|
      available* folder at ``/etc/apache2/sites-available``.  To enable the
 | 
						|
      ``searxng.conf`` use :man:`a2ensite`:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
      .. code:: bash
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
         sudo -H a2ensite searxng.conf
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
   .. group-tab:: Arch Linux
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
      In the ``/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf`` file add a IncludeOptional_
 | 
						|
      directive:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
      .. code:: apache
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
         IncludeOptional sites-enabled/*.conf
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
      Create two folders, one for the *available sites* and one for the *enabled sites*:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
      .. code:: bash
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
         mkdir -p /etc/httpd/sites-available
 | 
						|
         mkdir -p /etc/httpd/sites-enabled
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
      Create configuration at ``/etc/httpd/sites-available`` and place a
 | 
						|
      symlink to ``sites-enabled``:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
      .. code:: bash
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
         sudo -H ln -s /etc/httpd/sites-available/searxng.conf \

 | 
						|
   Use mod_proxy_uwsgi_ / don't use the old mod_uwsgi_ anymore.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
To proxy the incoming requests to the SearXNG instance Apache needs the
 | 
						|
mod_proxy_ module (:ref:`apache modules`).
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
.. sidebar:: HTTP headers
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
   With ProxyPreserveHost_ the incoming ``Host`` header is passed to the proxied
 | 
						|
   host.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Depending on what your SearXNG installation is listening on, you need a http
 | 
						|
mod_proxy_http_) or socket (mod_proxy_uwsgi_) communication to upstream.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The :ref:`installation scripts` installs the :ref:`reference setup
 | 
						|
<use_default_settings.yml>` and a :ref:`uwsgi setup` that listens on a socket by default.
 | 
						|
You can install and activate your own ``searxng.conf`` like shown in
 | 
						|
:ref:`apache sites`.

disable logs
 | 
						|
============
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
For better privacy you can disable Apache logs.  In the examples above activate
 | 
						|
one of the lines and `restart apache`_:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
.. code:: apache
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
   SetEnvIf Request_URI "/searxng" dontlog
 | 
						|
   # CustomLog /dev/null combined env=dontlog
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The ``CustomLog`` directive disables logs for the entire (virtual) server, use it
 | 
						|
when the URL of the service does not have a path component (``/searxng``), so when
 | 
						|
SearXNG is located at root (``/``).
