Can any one help with the initial configuration of Apache?
I was told that to make localhost point to a alternative directory I
should change both the 'Documentroot' AND 'Directory' paths
The original info in httpd.conf works OK
DocumentRoot "C:/Program Files (x86)/Apache Software
Foundation/Apache2.2/htdocs"
<Directory "C:/Program Files (x86)/Apache Software
Foundation/Apache2.2/htdocs">
I have changed it to:
DocumentRoot "C:/Users/User/My Documents/htdocs"
<Directory "C:/Users/User/My Documents/htdocs">
Which doesn't work with error message 'The requested operation has failed!'
I'm sure that I didn't have this problem with XP but I'm now using Windows 7
Thanks
I think it's a permission problem, are u running apache as administrator?
I'm logged on as an administrator, is that the same thing?
Bob
Services on windows run as 'system' (i remember, i'm not M$ expert), u can see this by editing the service options from
control panel
