I'm new to mac, but I have started the Apache http service in OS X 10.5.6. I tried out the software iWeb that comes along with the OS, and created a website that I "published to folder" — my web root (/Library/WebServer). Now if I browse to http://localhost I won't end up at my prefered document root, but at the folder iWeb created for the website. I have edited /Private/etc/apache2/httpd.conf to make sure DocumentRoot looks like this: DocumentRoot "/Library/WebServer/Documents" DirectoryIndex in the same file looks like this: <IfModule dir_module> DirectoryIndex index.php </IfModule> and /Library/WebServer/Documents/index.php looks like this: <?php phpinfo(); ?> After making changes to httpd.conf I restarted the apache service, but http://localhost still redirects to http://localhost/Website/empty.html (which iWeb created). Am I editing the wrong file? Obviously the settings remain unchanged somewhere. But where? -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Apache-on-Mac%3A-Can%27t-choose-DocumentRoot-tp21229720p21229720.html Sent from the Apache HTTP Server - Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. --------------------------------------------------------------------- The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.
