[SOLVED] What is installed when "web server" is selected

When I get to the Software selection step of Install one of the choices is "web server".

I Searched and could not find a reference to "web server" that lists what is installed.

Anyone have a link or list, please?

Thanks

Re: [SOLVED] What is installed when "web server" is selected

OK, so it appears that it's Apache2:
https://pkginfo.devuan.org/cgi-bin/pack … .70devuan1

Description-en: web server
This task selects packages useful for a general purpose web server
system.
Depends: tasksel (= 3.70devuan1), apache2
Recommends: apache2-doc, analog

Edit1: I would prefer to install NGINX rather than Apache - I'm looking at this https://dev1galaxy.org/viewtopic.php?id=3768 and this http://www.troubleshooters.com/linux/nginx/

Edit2: Also, page 5 here ... https://dev1galaxy.org/viewtopic.php?id=3331&p=5

Thanks

• you can install nginx as a standalone package, as are other server-related packages like mariadb, PHP, etc

• nginx and apache can safely co-exist on the same machine, but require careful configuration to avoid competing for port access
