Note

The Swarm configuration file does not include PHP's standard closing tag (?>). This is intentional as it prevents unintentional whitespace from being introduced into Swarm's output, which would interfere with Swarm's ability to control HTTP headers. Debugging problems that result from unintentional whitespace can be challenging, since the resulting behavior and error messages often appear to be misleading.
