Versions

Apache HTTPD versions currently provided are:

• httpd-2.4
• httpd-2.4-micro

RHEL versions currently supported are:

• RHEL 8
• RHEL 9

CentOS Stream versions currently supported are:

• CentOS Stream 9
• CentOS Stream 10

Installation

Choose either the CentOS Stream 9, CentOS Stream 10 or RHEL8 based image:

• RHEL8 based image

  These images are available in the Red Hat Container Catalog. To download it run:

  $ podman pull registry.access.redhat.com/rhel8/httpd-24
  

  To build a RHEL7 based Apache HTTP Server image, you need to run Docker build on a properly subscribed RHEL machine.

  $ git clone --recursive https://github.com/sclorg/httpd-container.git
  $ cd httpd-container
  $ git submodule update --init
  $ make build TARGET=rhel8 VERSIONS=2.4
  

• CentOS Stream 9 based image

  This image is available on DockerHub. To download it run:

  $ podman pull quay.io/sclorg/httpd-24-c9s
  

  To build a CentOS based Apache HTTP Server image from scratch run:

  $ git clone --recursive https://github.com/sclorg/httpd-container.git
  $ cd httpd-container
  $ git submodule update --init
  $ make build TARGET=c9s VERSIONS=2.4
  

For using other versions of Apache HTTP Server, just replace the 2.4 value by particular version in the commands above.

Note: while the installation steps are calling podman, you can replace any such calls by docker with the same arguments.

Notice: By omitting the VERSIONS parameter, the build/test action will be performed on all provided versions of Apache HTTP Server, which must be specified in VERSIONS variable. This variable must be set to a list with possible versions (subdirectories).

Usage

For information about usage of Dockerfile for Apache HTTP Server 2.4, see usage documentation.

Test

This repository also provides a test framework, which checks basic functionality of the Apache HTTP Server image.

Users can choose between testing Apache HTTP Server based on a RHEL or CentOS Stream image.

• RHEL based image

  To test a RHEL8 based Apache HTTP Server image, you need to run the test on a properly subscribed RHEL machine.

  $ cd httpd-container
  $ git submodule update --init
  $ make test TARGET=rhel8 VERSIONS=2.4
  

• CentOS Stream based image

  $ cd httpd-container
  $ git submodule update --init
  $ make test TARGET=c9s VERSIONS=2.4
  

For using other versions of Apache HTTP Server, just replace the 2.4 value by particular version in the commands above.
