Apache problems...

Symptoms:

File / not found.

/index not found.

Apache test page appears instead of index.html

[url]http://localhost//[/url] works, but [url]http://localhost/[/url] does not



Problem:

The directory names in the /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.con file do not
match. Virtual host settings are wrong.


Solutions:

Restore files from YellowDog install disks and re-customize (not cut
and paste) by hand the RedHat Apache Configurator doesn't always work
right.

Make sure that all script files are chmod +x as are all dirs.

Make sure of the following in the httpd.conf file - note how many /
there are!!!

DocumentRoot "/var/www/html/"

<Directory />
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride None
Allow from all
</Directory>

<Directory "/var/www/html/">

Any other tips you all have should be posted as replies to this post.
