Hi Is there an operating system that uses the apache default file structure? I'm using debian and it does not.
If you're referring to an apache package for a platform that maintains it per the default were you to install from source, FreeBSD comes the closest for what I've seen. While Debian's build does leave you scratching your head for a while, once you sort it out it's usable (see the README file in their configuration directory.) *Most* platforms don't preserve the same directory structure as the source build. Most of them are intuitive though once you learn where things have been shuffled around. It's common to move various parts of an application around to get it to conform with the rest of the system because maintenance can actually be easier that way (e.g. data and logs in /var/, configs in /etc/, binaries in a bin/ or sbin/ directory, etc.) For a given package you should be able to list out the files from the package and see where things have been put; e.g. dpkg -L on Debian/Ubuntu, rpm -ql on RH/Fedora, pkg_info -L on OpenBSD, and so on.
