How to configure mod_reqtimeout in Apache2
Solution 1:
To check if the module is loaded, you can use the command
apachectl -M
or apache2ctl -M
, depending on your OS. If it's not loaded, you can load it on Debian/Ubuntu systems using
a2enmod reqtimeout
, on CentOS/RHEL systems you will have to edit your /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf
. Find the lines starting with LoadModule
and add one like this:
LoadModule reqtimeout_module modules/mod_reqtimeout.so
Make sure to restart apache afterwards. To configure it, you just add a line starting with
RequestReadTimeout
and the values you want to either your httpd.conf (global) or some VirtualHost configuration (just for the vhost).
