amzapache is a Chef cookbook for installing Apache Web server w/ mod ssl on Amazon Linux. I have not tested this cookbook on CentOS or RHEL.

This cookbook was written for use with AWS OpsWorks (Chef 11) for building a custom web server layer running Amazon Linux.

Installs Apache using the settings as configured in the attributes. This cookbooks is setup to function in combo with php-pkg (installs PHP) and deployer (which can easily deploy PHP applications from a repo on github).

To use with OpsWorks (Chef 11) - Create a custom layer - add amzapache::default as a custom cookbook to the "setup" event.
