>Description:
When I try to startup Apache, I get the following error:
fopen: No such file or directory
httpd: could not open document config file /usr/local/apache/conf/httpd.conf
/umi/www/apache/bin/apachectl start: httpd could not be started
My configure line looks as follows:
CC=cc ./configure --prefix=/umi/www/apache \
--enable-suexec --suexec-caller=umi \
--enable-module=rewrite --enable-shared=rewrite \
--enable-module=auth_dbm --enable-shared=auth_dbm \
--enable-module=auth_anon --enable-shared=auth_anon \
--enable-module=proxy --enable-shared=proxy
I also tried explicitly setting exec-prefix and sysconfdir, but that didn't
help.
This problem did not exist with version 1.3.6
Also, I don't directly install to the PREFIX (/umi/www/apache), but install with
the line:
make install-quiet root=../..
Then I use Solaris packaging to actually package and install the file. I don't
think this is related, but including it for completeness.
