[users@httpd] Warning: DocumentRoot [/www/manual] does not exist while trying to
run a mod_chroot Apache 2
Hi I am a SysAdmin our Organisation is a Linux/SuSE shop we have a
Chrooted Apache2 in testing with virtual hosting and Zope/Plone websites
.
My boss has suggested to use the less taxing mod_chroot
which I have configured as follows :
SuSE Linux O/s Apache 2 httpd.conf file
ServerRoot "/usr/apache2/apache-test"
ChrootDir "/chroot/apache2/www"
DocumentRoot "/"
PidFile "/www/
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName server.company.co.uk
DocumentRoot "/www/manual"
#DocumentRoot "/manual" # tried this as well .
</VirtualHost>
Thus when I run ./apachectl restart
Warning: DocumentRoot [/www/manual] does not exist
Also this when I changed the DocumentRoot to "/manual"
Warning: DocumentRoot [/manual] does not exist
I have read the mod_chroot doc's but cant find the problem as I have
created the neccessary directories and my html files reside in the dir
in question /chroot/apache2/www/ where my websites resides .
Is there any more examples out there in relation to using mod_chroot for
Apache 2 Linux .
Cheers
Chuck

hi,
set document-root to /, activate mod_autoindex and search for the dir in the
apache-output.
