[users@httpd] multi-language manual/ directory: how to use it.

[Kenneth Ashin <ke...@verizon.net>]

I've installed Apache HTTP 2.2 on Win 7.
I am a real newcomer to web servers, etc.

As a learning exercise, I want to be able to enter 
http://localhost/doc or some variant of that and 
then be able to browse the docs in manual/

I put this in httpd.conf:

Alias /doc/ "C:/Program Files/Apache Software Foundation/Apache2.2/manual/"
<Directory "C:/Program Files/Apache Software Foundation/Apache2.2/manual/">
    Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
    AllowOverride all
    Order allow,deny
    Allow from all
</Directory>

I've tried putting an .htaccess file in C:/Program Files/Apache Software
Foundation/Apache2.2/manual
with various options related to Content Negotiation, but
http://localhost/doc 
just shows me the text of index.html which appears to be a typemap file.

http://localhost/doc/index.html.en displays the 1st page of the doc, but
when I click
on a link the content of an .html (typemap?) file is displayed instead the
appropriate 
html.en file.

How can I make this mechanism work?

Thanks,
Ken
