[Learn about configurations >](https://juju.is/docs/juju/configuration#heading--application-configuration)

* apt-key-id | string

  A PGP key id. This is used with PPA and the source option to import a PGP public key for verifying repository signatures. This value must match the PPA for apt-source.
* apt-source | string

  From where to install packages. This is the PPA source line. Note that due to a bug in software-properties add-apt-repository cannot add the ondrej/apache2 ppa, so the default value here is a full sources line.
* config\_change\_command | string

  Default: reload

  The command to run whenever config has changed. Accepted values are
  "reload" or "restart" - any other value will mean neither is executed
  after a config change (which may be desired, if you're running a
  production server and would rather handle these out of band). Note:
  some variables like the mpm settings require a full restart to take effect.
* disable\_modules | string

  Default: status autoindex

  List of modules to disable
* enable\_modules | string

  List of modules to enable
* extra\_packages | string

  List of extra packages to be installed (e.g. commercial GeoIP package).
  This can be a string of packages space or comma separated.
  i.e "screen cowsay" or "screen,cowsay".

  Limit on the number of connections that an individual child server will handle during its life. As of version 2.3.9, this is known as MaxConnectionsPerChild.
* mpm\_maxsparethreads | int

  Default: 75

  Maximum number of idle threads available to handle request spikes.
* mpm\_minsparethreads | int

  Default: 25

  Minimum number of idle threads available to handle request spikes.
* mpm\_serverlimit | int

  Default: 128

  Upper limit on configurable number of processes. Changing this value requires a full restart.
* mpm\_startservers | int

  Default: 2

  Number of child server processes created at startup.
* mpm\_threadlimit | int

  Default: 64

  Sets the upper limit on the configurable number of threads per child process. Changing this value requires a full restart.
