Changint the Apache default page location

[jdeane]

How do I change the location of where Apache looks for index.html so that when a user enters

http://10.10.10.10/

it will call up my index.html file.

Thanks

Hi,

Just edit your httpd.conf file (e.g. /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf on redhat) and change the DocumentRoot :

DocumentRoot "/var/

http://www/html"

Then restart apache or cause it to read your config changes with :

# killall -HUP httpd


Hope this helps

I have checked the httpd.conf file and it is pointing to /var/

http://www/html

However if I replace the index.html file with my own it will still bring up the default Apache test page.

I have stopped and started Apache which makes no difference.

Any ideas??
