[users@httpd] SSI works without mod_include.so???

[William Cai]

Hi list,

Just observe an interesting issue. I developed a SSI to parse *.shtml files. I just made some minor changes in the httpd.conf file like the following.

 

AddType text/html .shtml
AddOutputFilter INCLUDES .shtml

<Directory />
    Options FollowSymLinks +Includes
    AllowOverride None
</Directory>

 

Then things worked. I didn't LoadModule mod_include.so according to Apache's guide. How comes it works? Is mod_include.so necessary for SSI?

 

Thanks!
