Apache was working fine I had not messed with the configuration at all, went to bed, got up, Apache no longer works and a file is gone. /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf is looking for /etc/httpd/modules/mod.access.so mod.access.so is not on my box anywhere I did not delete it and I did not change the configuration of httpd.conf or any files in /etc So where did it go? scratching head!?! I probably need to create the file again but I don't know what was in it or how it was configured. could there be a back up hiding on my box? help! -- Jack Gates http://www.jlgates.com/ http://www.myenergyproducts.com/ --------------------------------------------------------------------- The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.
