a2enmod, a2dismod - enable or disable an apache2 module

       This manual page was written by Daniel Stone <daniel@sfarc.net> for the Debian GNU/Linux distribution, as
       it is a Debian-specific script with the package.

                                                 12 October 2006                                      A2ENMOD(8)

       This manual page documents briefly the a2enmod and a2dismod commands.

       a2enmod  is a script that enables the specified module within the apache2 configuration.  It does this by
       creating symlinks within /etc/apache2/mods-enabled.  Likewise, a2dismod disables  a  module  by  removing
       those  symlinks.  It is not an error to enable a module which is already enabled, or to disable one which
       is already disabled.

       Note that many modules have, in addition to a .load file, an associated .conf file.  Enabling the  module
       puts  the  configuration  directives  in  the  .conf  file  as directives into the main server context of
       apache2.
