I need help configuring apache on my webserver

antinull · 11-03-2007, 11:08 AM

Okay, i have used apache on a windows me machine as a webserver but that computer bit the dust recently
so now i am trying to use a newer linux-debian installed computer to run my website.
problem is i cannot seem to get apache to stop pointing to/www/apache2-default/
instead of my /www/ directory
What configuration file do i need to edit and how ?

http://antinul.com/
it allways goes to
http://antinul.com/apache2-default/
which doesnt exist anymore

you can change it in httpd.conf with this directive: DocumentRoot /where/you/want/to/put/your/docs.

The httpd.conf file is located in the apache_x.x.x/conf/ directory.
