https://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/de/mod/core.html#timeout The TimeOut Directive states "Kontext: Serverkonfiguration" in the german documentation, whereas the english (and french at least) says "Context: server config, virtual host" Which is very missleading. Other Directives seems also to be wrong like the one just after (TraceEnable) I think this really needs to be fixed to avoid further confusion.
