httpd.conf

[Powermaster]

Where is the correct httpd.conf for the apache server?

Thanks for help!

 

[slur]

/private/etc/httpd/httpd.conf

 

[Powermaster]

ok, cool. Now how do I phrase a alias?



Thanks for any ideas!

 

[slur]

I'm not sure what you mean by "phrase a[n] alias." Can you elaborate?

 

[Powermaster]

How do you make it so that when you place a alias folder in your web server folder it reads it as an alias instead of a file

 

[Powermaster]

Still not working. http://powermaster.dyndns.org is my address. I am trying to get mp3 to work as a folder. It is an alias. TestUser: Tried what you said, did not work. do I need to do somthing with httpd.conf?

Also make sure the folder to which the symbolic link points is world-readable and world-executable and its contents are world-readable. The simplest way to do this is to use:

chmod -R 755 /path/to/my/folder

...which makes the folder and its contents readable and executable by everybody. Strictly speaking only the folders need to be executable, meaning they can be entered and their contents discovered - in this case by Apache.

For more security you'd want to change the folder's group to "www" and then make it and its contents group-readable and executable instead, which would be 750 instead of 755.

You guys rule! Thanks.

Now for my next question.

How come the icons on my server do not show up?

the icons that should accompany a folder listing
http://powermaster.dyndns.org

Thanks Many thanks!

I got it all to work

Thanks!

Look what I've got form WebMin, trying to start Apache server:

Failed to start apache :

dyld: /usr/sbin/httpd Undefined symbols:

/usr/sbin/apachectl start: httpd could not be started

Running 10.1.2. Any ideas?
