Use Cases

  • Luke is trying to learn PHP. He knows nothing about Apache and doesn't want to learn 2 things at once. He gets advice from a friend and apt-gets Rapache. He now can add VirtualHosts just clicking New and filling the domain name. No need to edit /etc/hosts as well.

  • Felix is a seasoned WebDeveloper. He knows a bunch of linux commands already and has no problem settings virtualhosts but he needs to test a lot of new software often, and creating a virtual hosts by hand (create new vhost file, linking, creating /etc/hosts entry) is time consuming. After installing Rapache creating new test sites on his localhost is a breeze. Rapache even detects some vhost not conforming to debian policy (.conf files only present in /etc/apache/sites-enabled) and offers to fix them for him.

  • Mauro is a Windows Sysadmin. He's used to configure IIS using a program, but the Evil Developers(tm) forced him to run the intranet on a Linux Server. With Rapache he is able to setup everything with ease. He can enable/disable apache modules at will, and access module's documentation with one click.
