This script generates the apache config files which will be used by EPrints. In the simple case all you need to do is run this script then add a line to your main apache configuration file - often, but not always, '''/usr/local/apache/conf/httpd.conf'''
+
This script generates the config files to include in your Apache configuration.
 +
 
 +
If you have changed a repository's configuration (hostname/port/path) you can update the configuration for that repository with:
  
−
  Include /opt/eprints3/cfg/apache.conf
+
  generate_apacheconf --replace [repoid]
 
    
 
    
−
Or elsewhere if you installed EPrints somewhere other than /opt/eprints3. This file then uses the "Include" directive to include all relevant apache config files from this EPrints installation.

===Adding to Apache Configuration===
 +
To enable EPrints you must add the following line to your main Apache configuration file (<em>/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf</em>):
  
−
  VirtualHost *
+
  Include /opt/eprints3/cfg/apache.conf
 
    
 
    
−
But the * can be changed to something different by editing the <tt>virtualhost</tt> option in SystemSettings.pm
+
To enable secure (HTTPS) you must add the following line to your SSL VirtualHost:
  
 +
Include /opt/eprints3/cfg/apache_ssl.conf
