Apaxy is an open-source web server theme that provides an easy-to-use and customizable approach to enhance the look and feel of web servers. In this tutorial, we will guide you through the installation process of Apaxy on FreeBSD Latest.
The first step is to download Apaxy from the official website or via GitHub. You can use the following command to download the latest version of Apaxy:
git clone https://github.com/oupala/apaxy.git
After downloading Apaxy, navigate to the directory where you saved the files using the following command:
cd apaxy
Then, copy the Apaxy files to the Apache document root directory using the following command:
cp -r . /usr/local/www/apache24/data
Once you have copied the Apaxy files to the Apache document root directory, it is time to configure the Apache web server to use Apaxy. In order to do this, open the Apache configuration file using the following command:
ee /usr/local/etc/apache24/httpd.conf
Then, add the following lines to the configuration file:
<Directory "/usr/local/www/apache24/data">
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride None
Require all granted
Allow from all
</Directory>
Once you have added the above lines, save and close the file.
Finally, restart the Apache web server using the following command to apply the changes:
service apache24 restart
Now that you have installed and configured Apaxy, it is time to test it out. Open a web browser and navigate to your server's IP address or domain name. You should see the Apaxy theme with a custom directory listing page.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed and configured Apaxy on FreeBSD Latest. Apaxy is a powerful and customizable tool that can greatly enhance the browsing experience for web server users. Feel free to customize the theme to your liking and leverage the built-in functionality to suit your needs.
If you want to self-host in an easy, hands free way, need an external IP address, or simply want your data in your own hands, give IPv6.rs a try!
Alternatively, for the best virtual desktop, try Shells!
