The default apache config file /etc/httpd/httpd.conf directs the server
thus:
# DocumentRoot: The directory out of which you will serve your
# documents. By default, all requests are taken from this directory, but
# symbolic links and aliases may be used to point to other locations.
#
DocumentRoot "/Library/WebServer/Documents"
I suppose you could edit the config file to point to your home folder
or just move your files to the default directory.

Hi all
Trying to get apache running so I can learn php.
I turned on Personal Web Sharing but I cant get it to use the files I
have in my ~user/sites folder, namely index.html.
It says it will but it doesnt.
The address http://localhost/~administrator/ loads a page which
ironically has the statement "Create your website by changing this
page (it's called "index.html" and it's in the Sites folder in your
home folder)", no it isnt, my much-poured-over one is;)
http://localhost/ loads a similar page.
Has anyone struck this?
Have I missed something?
Cheers
Paul(who doesnt know it but the demons of IT have his number;)
