In order to be able to save a file in the /etc directory, you have to
be root. In order to run the command as root, you can use the sudo
command. Try doing something like sudo open /etc/apache2/httpd.conf.
You should be asked for a password. Type the administrator password
and press enter. Then the file should open and you will be able to
save the file when you're done.

ok here's the fix i got for now, i copyed a file to my home/desktop
directory, attempted to open it and when osx said there wasn't a
program to open it i chose text edit, then when i opened
/etc/apache2/httpd.conf
in terminal it worked. But when i tryed to save the file it didn't
work, said i needed to give it permitions. I dont know how to do
that, i tryed to chmod it but that didn't work for some reason. I'll
try again though
thanks

hey all;
i have found the
/etc/apache2/httpd.conf
file in terminal. I want to open .conf files in textedit but do not
know how to associate that with textedit in terminal. Can this be
done? or how do i find the actioal /etc/apache2 directory in
finder? I'm curious for i need to un comment the line in order to
allow apache to use php:
LoadModule php5_module libexec/apache2/libphp5.so
thanks
