Apache server 2.2 configuration

[itsmesaru]

Hi,
I am having a windows 2003 server where Apache server 2.2 is installed. I am having a application which comprise of front end and back end. Front end and back end are different technologies. In the front end user will pass some parameter then request is passed to back end for processing. Back end is producing a pdf where the front end needs to display the pdf file as a result.I am getting error in the apache log.

GET /cgi-bin/broker.exe?_service=andev&_program=pgm_fil3.mdi-compute-driver.sas&oraInstance=vprlims&startingPlate=1&sample_number=24088&analysis=CASC1&user=user&cnt=3&s=BEGINNING HTTP/1.1" 302 242
54.56.39.57 - - [05/Jul/2012:07:07:40 -0400] "GET /et/project-et/temp/MDI1917925653.935.pdf HTTP/1.1" 404 238

The problem here is the file is generated in f drive but apache is looking for a file in C drive. I want to know how i can redirect the apache server to f drive where the file is actually generated.

Let me know if more information is required.

Thanks,
Partha!

Modify the backend system to create the files in the website document root folders would be the obvious thing.

Apache will not "follow" Windows shortcuts as it will *nix symlinks, but there is a PHP solution here[/link.

Hi Chris,
The backend system is SAS. In the code i have changed the location to point apache installation path but the pdf is created in F drive instead of C drive.So i am not sure whether any web config is required to point apache installation location.Even i have tried with httpd.conf changing the root directory and location but it also fails. By default it is looking in installation location not in F drive.

Thanks,
Partha!
