OSX and httpd.conf

[Borrmaskin]

httpd.conf

OK..
I opened httpd.conf in BBedit as root.
Changed ServerRoot to "/Sites"
Changed server admin to me@mycompany.com
Changed BindAddress to my IP
and Uncommented :
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php
AddType application/x-httpd-php-source .phps

Before the server started just fine.
But it did not automatically get the ~user site
and , of corse, did not understand PHP.

Now it doesenst even start....

HELP...

Hi,

Did you check for syntax errors :

# /usr/local/apache/bin/httpd -t

- it should just say 'Syntax OK'.

It may just be because you don't have php installed. Php is not included with apache - you have to get it separately from

http://www.php.net

.

On the home directories, these are controlled via the 'UserDir' directive in httpd.conf . For example, if you had :

UserDir /home/httpd/*/www

Then a request for

http://127.0.0.1/~user1/index.html

would map physically to /home/httpd/user1/

http://www/index.html

If you use a relative path like this :

UserDir user_html

..the same request above would map to /home/user1/user_html/index.html .

See -->

http://httpd.apache.org/docs/mod/mod_userdir.html

and if you want to use cgi / ssi see also -->

http://httpd.apache.org/docs/suexec.html

Hope this helps
