Changing document root in Apache on OpenBSD 3.8


Hello

I have an smaller server, with 3g disk space . On it I redirected an subdomenin from some other server.
Everything go perfect, since now, when I fill an /var/ partition on the server.

Now I don't have any more place to store files, so i change documentroot in httpd.conf in /home/klemen/www/ (befor it was default /var/www/htdocs).

I cahange it only in httpd.conf (i have only that redirected subdomanin on the server, so I didn't make my own dns-servers).


After the change and rebooting i get:

The requested URL / was not found on this server.

What do I have to change that the files in /home/klemen/www/ will be visable on the subdomain? (exept two options in httpd.conf) ?

thanks klemen

Hi,

On OpenBSD, apache runs chrooted by default, so it will not even be able to see /home.

Code:
man httpd
should tell you everything you need to know.

The man pages for OpenBSD are vrey good, and are the definitive guide to the operating system (the OBSD crew's words, not mine) and you really should try to read them.

Cheers,

Steve

Thank you. I forgot for default chrooting. That was the problem.
