Icons for Apache

carlosinfl · 11-01-2005, 09:15 AM

Can someone tell me where this icon for the "image2" is located at? I looked in my apache2 dir and was not able to find a storage folder for icons or anything like that? I would like to add my own .jpg image called "image2" for my Apache web server however I need to find where they are located.

Here is the icon I am talking about. Its the one you see on the very left next to each file name.

These icons are in a directory named "icons". There is a "Alias /icons/ "/some/directory/" directive in your apache config file. So you have to go to the /some/directory to change those icons.

Yes, I figured that much. I just was unable to find /some/directory/ so I was wondering if anyone had a good place to check since I can't seem to find it.

Hi,

In recent versions of Apache the icon folder is located in /var/www/icons.

Anyway, if you don't find it there you can try to user the slocate command to find where the folder is located (you can even try the command slocate with your file name and it will most probably find it).

Ammar.

How would I use the "slocate" the command in this scenario?

Here is what I see in my directory.

Code:

stricom:/# cd /var/
stricom:/var# ls
backups  cache  lib  local  lock  log  mail  opt  run  spool  tmp  www
stricom:/var# cd www/
stricom:/var/www# ls
apache2-default  index.html  wedding
stricom:/var/www# rm index.html
stricom:/var/www# ls
apache2-default  wedding
stricom:/var/www# cd apache2-default/
stricom:/var/www/apache2-default# ls
apache_pb2_ani.gif       index.html.de  index.html.he.iso8859-8   index.html.no            index.html.ru.utf8

Run

Code:

updatedb

to update your slocate.db and then:

Code:

locate image2.gif

Very cool.

Code:

stricom:~# updatedb
stricom:~# locate image2.gif
/usr/share/apache2/icons/image2.gif
/usr/share/apache2/icons/small/image2.gif

Now to figure out which one is which. There seems to be a large and a small one so I will need to mess around.

What does the "updatedb" command do?

bathory · 11-02-2005, 06:40 AM

updatedb updates the database used from (s)locate to index your files. Run:

Code:

man slocate
man updatedb

to learn more.
