Where can I get an approximate copy of the httpd.conf file that was (probably)
released with Version 2.2.24 (Unix)?
I'm looking at the httpd.conf file on my MacBook Pro (that I assume was
delivered with MacOS 10.6.8), and some of the comments (#) don't make sense.
I'd like to compare my file against a version of this file as delivered from
Apache.
The commands themselves seem to work; it's just the comments I suspect may have
been changed from what was originally written.
Example:
From someone else's machine (of unknown versionity):
# Configuration and logfile names: If the filenames you specify for many
# of the server’s control files begin with “/” (or “drive:/” for Win32), the
# server will use that explicit path. If the filenames do *not* begin
# with “/”, the value of ServerRoot is prepended — so “logs/foo.log”
# with ServerRoot set to “/usr/local/apache2″ will be interpreted by the
# server as “/usr/local/apache2/logs/foo.log”.
The first paragraph makes sense to me.
From my machine (Version 2.2.24):
# Configuration and logfile names: If the filenames you specify for many
# of the server's control files begin with "/" (or "drive:/" for Win32), the
# server will use that explicit path. If the filenames do *not* begin
# with "/", the value of ServerRoot is prepended -- so
"/private/var/log/apache2/foo_log"
# with ServerRoot set to "/usr" will be interpreted by the
# server as "/usr//private/var/log/apache2/foo_log".
The second, not so much.
The new file names don't fit the file system structure as implemented.
Why would Apple change the examples?
