DO NOT REPLY [Bug 52604] New: miss spelling

https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=52604

             Bug #: 52604
           Summary: miss spelling
           Product: Apache httpd-2
           Version: 2.2.21
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Windows XP
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Documentation
        AssignedTo: docs@httpd.apache.org
        ReportedBy: kes-kes@yandex.ru
    Classification: Unclassified


# Configuration and logfile names: If the filenames you specify for many
# of the server's control files begin with "/" (or "drive:/" for Win32), the
# server will use that explicit path.  If the filenames do *not* begin
-# with "/", the value of ServerRoot is prepended -- so "/var/log/foo_log"
+# with "/", the value of ServerRoot is prepended -- so "var/log/foo_log"
# with ServerRoot set to "/usr/local" will be interpreted by the
-# server as "/usr/local//var/log/foo_log".
+# server as "/usr/local/var/log/foo_log".

Because you say: "If the filenames do *not* begin with "/"
BUT In example you prepend file name with '/'
  notice:  '-- so "/var/log/foo_log"'

It's in httpd.conf.in and what's actually there is this:

# Configuration and logfile names: If the filenames you specify for many
# of the server's control files begin with "/" (or "drive:/" for Win32), the
# server will use that explicit path.  If the filenames do *not* begin
# with "/", the value of ServerRoot is prepended -- so
"@rel_logfiledir@/foo_log"
# with ServerRoot set to "@@ServerRoot@@" will be interpreted by the
# server as "@@ServerRoot@@/@rel_logfiledir@/foo_log".

So, I'd need to dig a little deeper to see what @rel_logfiledir@ is supposed to
be, but based on the context I presume that it's supposed to be a RELATIVE
path, hence the name.

The thing is, depending on how one installs, it can never be certain that it's
going to be.

I think what happened here is that the example was a useful one with filler
values, and someone put in the variables where they weren't actually helpful,
thus breaking the example depending on ./configure options.

Does that make sense?
