Apache Friends Support Forum

I would like to know how to get Apache to stop displaying the server information on error pages that may come up to the Public. A small but helpful added security measure I would think.

I have identified this as being a part of the script in the bottom html page...

Is it as simple as removing that line?

Anyway I will try it and Update accordingly

Ok it is that simple..

If any one else would like to know heres the way

Go to xampp/apache/error/includes/bottom.html and delete line 11 up to </span>

thanks again

Or even better just configure the Apache options "ServerTokens" and "ServerSignature" which are defined in the file xampp\apache\conf\extra\http-default.conf

Altrea's way is the correct fix, as the server signature can be queried even if HTML pages are not served.

Good Luck

Thanks for the replies after reading the config I understood better as to why you suggested this approach.

Thanks for your time yet again....
