Pidfile
Syntax
PidFile filename
Description
You set the PidFile directive to the file in which the server is to record the server
process ID.
The PidFile directive is optional. Only one PidFile directive is allowed in the
configuration file.
Default
None. If you do not set the PidFile directive, no process ID file is written.
Example
PidFile /usr/tandem/webserver/httpd.pid
PutScript
Syntax
PutScript CGI-script-filename
Description
Use the PutScript directive to indicate that you wish the iTP Secure WebServer to
support the PUT method defined by the HTTP/1.1 protocol. The PUT method stores a
new page or replaces an existing page on the host.
If you do not include this directive, a client can upload content to the host by using the
File Transfer Protocol (FTP) or the POST request method. The differences in operation
among FTP, POST, and PUT are as follows:
•
FTP copies a file to a specified location. Filemap directives in your configuration
file determine the correspondence between URLs and file locations on the server.
