Hi all, Let me be clear about my points I ve done so far: 1. I have started linux from the ROOT user. 2. Configured setting a prefix path rather than default.Installed and configured successfully. 3. I could see the creation of folders like bin, conf, build, modules.... (13 folders) 4. I ve started the apache as /PREFIX/bin/apachectl start 5. I ve not modified any of the files internally, like httpd.conf.
Finally I ve got FORBIDDEN error. Thats all. Please suggest me now. 2008/8/19 Krist van Besien <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > On Tue, Aug 19, 2008 at 14:00, Ch Praveena <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > I am sure that I am currently running from ROOT user completely. > > So you have the line "User root" in your httpd.conf? > This is very unwise.
