<h1 class="topictitle1">Manually edit HTTP Server</h1>
<div><p>This topic provides information about how to manually edit your
HTTP Server configuration without the <span>IBM<sup>®</sup> Web Administration for i5/OS™ interface</span>.</p>
<div class="important"><span class="importanttitle">Important:</span> Information
for this topic supports the latest PTF levels for HTTP Server for i5/OS .
It is recommended that you install the latest PTFs to upgrade to the latest
level of the HTTP Server for i5/OS. Some of the topics documented here are
not available prior to this update. See <a href="http://www-03.ibm.com/servers/eserver/iseries/software/http/services/service.html" target="_blank">http://www.ibm.com/servers/eserver/iseries/software/http/services/service.htm</a> <img src="www.gif" alt="Link outside Information Center" /> for more information. </div>
<div class="attention"><span class="attentiontitle">Attention:</span> It is strongly suggested that any editing to the HTTP
Server configuration file be done through the <span>IBM Web Administration for i5/OS interface</span>.
Improper modifications to your configuration file could make your HTTP Server
unusable. Modifications to the configuration file manually should only be
performed by advanced users.</div>
<p>The <span>IBM Web Administration for i5/OS interface</span> has been
designed to modify the HTTP Server configuration file by applying changes
made to the various forms and wizards supplied by the <span>IBM Web Administration for i5/OS interface</span>.
Use of the forms and wizards greatly decreases the potential for user error
and helps maintain an error-free configuration file.</p>
<p>Optionally, the configuration file may be edited manually. When the configuration
file has been modified manually, the <span>IBM Web Administration for i5/OS interface</span> does
not perform the usual error checking that is done when using the <span>IBM Web Administration for i5/OS interface</span>.
Any changes made to the configuration file directly should be done with caution. </p>
<p>As a precaution, do the following before you modify the configuration file
manually:</p>
<ul><li>Save a backup of your configuration file before manually editing. See <a href="rzaiebackup.htm">Manage backup files for HTTP Server</a> for more information.</li>
<li>Keep track of any changes you make to your configuration file.</li>
</ul>
<p>In addition, after each modification, test your configuration by stopping
and starting your HTTP Server. Verify the directives you manually configured
have the desired effect.</p>
