[WEB4LIB] Apache Question

[Thomas Dowling]

Regardless of where Apache is installed, you can make the document root
(the directory that corresponds to a URI of "/") any place on your
machine.

In httpd.conf, look for the DocumentRoot directive.  It should read:

DocumentRoot /wherever/your/pages/really/live


See http://www.apache.org/docs/mod/core.html#documentroot

If you're new to Apache, you'll benefit from its excellent documentation
and also from the O'Reilly Apache book.

> Apache has just been installed on out machine (RISC 6000 P10)  We have
been using CERN for the WWW server.  Apache is in a different directory
from the CERN server, and hence all the files, pages, images are in that
directory.  What I am looking for is a way to direct Apache to look in the
other directory for the data.  I could move it to the Apache file, but we
are redsigning the pages, and it would be nice to hava a clean directory
to drop them in.
