Re: [users@httpd] Windows 7 DocumentRoot directive not working
I found the issue. I edited the httpd.conf file with textpad. But, textpad wasn't running as administrator. So, my changes were saved in an unknow user location. Every time I opened the httpd.conf file, it opened my personal version instead of the file, not the real file. So, my changes were never saved. Even though, it appeared to change. Thanks Microsoft. I love opening a file and having the O.S. open a different file, but not telling me that it opened a different file.

Re: [users@httpd] Windows 7 DocumentRoot directive not working
Hi, Assuming you restarted apache after changing the httpd.conf..

[users@httpd] Windows 7 DocumentRoot directive not working
I installed Apache 2.2.21 on Windows 7 machine. Test "It Works" page is displayed. I changed the following in httpd.conf: DocumentRoot "e:/webroot/" I created "webroot" folder on e drive (also tried with c drive and without ending slash). Put a sample index.html file in that folder with a different message (i.e. not "It Works"). Restarted the Apached service, but still get the "It Works" message. I opend my new index.html file will a browser to verify that there are no errors with the html code. I made sure that the is only 1 "DocumentRoot" directive in the httpd.conf file. Access.log file shows that get requests are coming in. Error.log file doesn't show any error messages Any ides? -- Robert Waligora ~ http://www.waligora.com Cell Phone: 440-941-2262 (new cell phone number) Home Phone: 440-519-0733
