OK, I put the fake command in and now I'm getting an error via web page:
Internal Server Error
The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to
complete your request.
Here are the last two log file entries for that httpd request:
12.34.567.89 - - [19/Apr/2008:13:46:23 -0400] "GET / HTTP/1.1" 500
61612.34.567.89 - - [19/Apr/2008:13:47:12 -0400] "GET / HTTP/1.1" 200 20
I Changed the IP's.
I guess there were two seperate errors, the last error - even when I corrected
and removed the fake
command and reloaded, I could not access the site, so the second error
indicates the fake message removed
but all else being (supposedly) correct the same in the conf.d file. Then I
deleted .htaccess and .htpasswd and now I can
again access the site again.
