Under Ubuntu apache will first load /etc/apache2/apache2.conf. This file in turn includes httpd,conf, ports.conf and then all files under conf.d and sites-enabled. In "sites-enabled" there is usually only one file, and it is actually a link to a file in "sites-available. There's a philosphy behind that. If you follow it it will make upgrading and managing apache using the ubuntu tools easier. Easy: - Don't touch httpd.conf. leave that as it was installed. (as installed this file is empty) - Put your own stuff in /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/000-default, replacing what is allready there. or, a bit more sofisticated (but recommended), in line with the underlying philosphy: - Don't touch httpd.conf. leave that as it was installed. (as installed this file is empty) - Put all your stuff in a file named "mysite" (or whatever you fancy) in the /etc/apache2/sites-available dir. (Not in sites-enabled!). Use the "default" file as a template. - Run the follwoing two commands: a2dissite default a2ensite mysite This will remove the link to default from sites-enabled, and add a link to your config...
