Hello,

Given the httpd2 -S output shown at [1].

Question 1.
- What directory does this http url translate to on localhost 127.0.0.1

http://127.0.0.1/cacti/xxxx

is it /srv/www/htdocs/cacti/xxxx ?

Question 2.
- What does this error mean and what directory [fully qualified] would it be trying to reference. ?

# more /var/log/apache2/cacti-access_log

Hi there,

yes, unless you have some weird internal URL rewriting.

A Firefox 29 browser is trying to access http://127.0.0.1/ and receives a status 302 "Moved Permanently". The server is telling it that the desired resource is not available where the browser looked for it, but somewhere else. We don't see the location that the server is giving as a substitute, but obviously it's /cacti/install/, because that's what the browser requests a split second later.
However, there's probably a configuration error, because on retrieving the resource it was told, the browser gets a 404 status ("Not Found").
The third line is to be considered as a separate story - browsers often try to retrieve an icon they might display next to the URL in the address bar, but your server doesn't offer such an icon. Hence another 404 "Not Found". That's nothing to worry about.
