RE: [users@httpd] Virtual Host or Virtual Directory

Make sure you restart Apache if you change the httpd.conf file.

Subject: [users@httpd] Virtual Host or Virtual Directory

I am attempting to set up the apache web server that comes Mac OS X to work with dynamic web pages developed using Adobe Golive. In reading the Golive Instructions they say to change the httpd.conf file in apache to reflect the paths of my server and site.  Adobe talks about a virtual directory. Is that the same as a virtual host? Are the changes below the only changes that need to be made to set apache web server for a virtual host?  According to Adobe they are the only changes needed. Yet when I made these changes the dynamic pages do not seems to work properly.

Alias /Documents "Library/WebServer"

<Directory "Library/WebServer/Documents">

       Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews ExecCGI

       AllowOverride All

       Order allow,deny

       Allow from all

</Directory>

Thanks,

Re: [users@httpd] Virtual Host or Virtual Directory

Posted by Joe Apache <ap...@productivitymedia.com>.

Do you want the site to be on a different URL or third-level domain 
name?  If so you must setup your virtual host... if not then place the 
files in the /Library/WebServer/Document folder and restart Apache with:

apachectl restart

If that does not help... explain further.
