HTTP / PHP Server Configuration requested by Host

[braughtg]

The following changes to the server configuration have been requested:

• Disable the headers in /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf (or whatever you use as the config file)

# Only display “Apache” without version info
ServerTokens Prod
 
# Disables the server signature in error pages
ServerSignature Off

• Disable PHP version in /etc/php.ini

; Disabling the ability to view PHP version for security reasons
expose_php = Off

This will need to be done in the Dockerfile in the farmOS container defined by docker/farmos. The other containers that may be running services (e.g. phpMyAdmin, MySQL, API) are all only on an internal docker network and thus should not require similar changes.

There is some possibility that this may break the system. When an admin running the hosting made this change the farmOS server no longer served pages. So additional investigation is needed and thorough testing should be done before any change is merged.

I would like to work on this please!

@Parthik04 This looks like you may be using the GitKit in your course. If that is the case you should be claiming an issue on the "upstream" repo for your course rather than on the main project repo. Your instructor will have given you the proper URL.

That said, if you want to contribute to the "live" FarmData2 project by working on this issue, please let me know!
