DO NOT REPLY [Bug 50521] New: Comment at top of sample main config file is wrong

https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=50521

           Summary: Comment at top of sample main config file is wrong
           Product: Apache httpd-2
           Version: 2.2.16
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Build
        AssignedTo: bugs@httpd.apache.org
        ReportedBy: apache.bugzilla@catcons.co.uk


The comment at the top of the sample main config file is generated (this sample
from Slackware64 13.1) as:

# ...  If the filenames do *not* begin
# with "/", the value of ServerRoot is prepended -- so "/var/log/httpd/foo_log"
# with ServerRoot set to "/usr" will be interpreted by the
# server as "/usr//var/log/httpd/foo_log".

The leading / of both /var strings should not be present.

A possible patch (for 2.1.7, created by "ponce" not me and online at
http://ponce.cc/slackware/testing/other/patches/rel_logfiledir.patch) is

maybe this is more appriopriate?

http://ponce.cc/slackware/testing/other/patches/strip_leading_slash_from_rel_logfiledir.patch

the problem seems to be in the variable keeping a leading path inheriting it
from exp_logfiledir.
