isotoma.recipe.apache 0.0.6

A suite of packages to manage a production deployment of medium-load web applications.

This package provides buildout recipes for the configuration of apache. This has a number of features that we have found useful in production, such as support for long CA chains, htpasswd authentication protection and the support for optional templates provided with the buildout.

We use the system apache, so this recipe will not install apache for you. If you wish to install apache, use zc.recipe.cmmi perhaps.
