No, it could be a relative path, but it is **relative** to ServerRoot.
I set:
ServerRoot "/home/tianyin/httpd-2.4.3"
DocumentRoot "htdocs"
<Directory "htdocs">
......
</Directory>
And everything is perfectly fine.--On Thu, Nov 29, 2012 at 4:02 PM, Yehuda Katz <yehuda@xxxxxxxxxx> wrote:

However I have already set ServerRoot to "C:/Program Files/Apache" and DocumentRoot to 'htdocs", therefore I assume it implies the document root will be "C:/Program Files/Apache/htdocs", as indicated in your reply, correct?
The question is why I have to use <Directory "C:/Program Files/Apache/htdocs"> instead of <Directory "htdocs"> even though DocumentRoot is already set to "htdocs"?Because the documentation says that the <Directory > block always requires the full path:That was a design decision that was probably made years ago.
