Bug ID: 69698
Summary: Commented out lines in httpd.conf are not ignored,
leading to unexpected effects when ending with
anti-slash
Product: Apache httpd-2
Version: 2.4.63
Hardware: PC
OS: Linux
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P2
Component: Documentation
Assignee: docs@httpd.apache.org
Reporter: dvaldena...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
Hi,
According to
https://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/en/configuring.html
'Lines that begin with the hash character "#" are considered comments, and are
ignored.'
However, when the configuration file contains lines like this :
# /!\ this is a very important comment /!\
Include very-important.conf
The second line is considered as a comment, and ignored, thus the very
important configuration file is not included.
This is confusing since the syntax highlighting systems in vim (or vscode)
don't
color the line as comments.
Maybe this should be outlined in the documentation, because a change in
behaviour could trigger of lot of unexpected effects. Maybe a warning in the
error log ?
Thanks for your attention,
Best regards,
Denis S. Valdenaire-Poynter
