Most webservers have a document root. This is described in detail and can be configured in the httpd.conf file. However - out of the box, the document root for apache httpd is: apache_installation_dir/htdocs
Where apache_installation_dir is where you installed apache. In there you will find the page that renders the " If you can see this, it means that the installation of the Apache web server software on this system was successful" message. Drop an html file in there and it will render. The documentation can walk you through change the location of the document root, changing permissions, etc. ________________________________________ From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Bill Belew Sent: Monday, December 19, 2005 11:46 AM To: users@httpd.apache.org Subject: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Which directory I'm trying very hard to use the documentation and not ask for help on obvious things, but I find some simple things very ambiguous.
