I created a simple test.html page and had the following in the page: <font color=red>This is a test page to see if the html is working</font> The page did present with the text in red. I then checked the error_log and it had no entries beyond just the startup stuff. it seems that it is doing the html just fine. I do have a production server running (same configuration) and it presents html pages just fine. Just no php pages.
