[users@httpd] Changing DocumentRoot Doesn't Work

[Gaming Mouse <ga...@yahoo.com>]

I've installed Apache 2.2 as a manual server (ie, I have to open the 
httpd.exe command window to use it) on Win XP Pro. The installation 
works fine when I visit:

http://localhost:8080

However, I am now trying to change my htdocs root, because I keep all my 
data one the E:\ partition of my HD. I have changed the following 2 
lines in my httpd.conf file:

DocumentRoot E:/Documents/htdocs/bj

(I have tried the line above both with and without quotes)

<Directory "e:/documents/htdocs/bj">

I then close the httpd.exe window and reopen it -- to restart apache.

However, Apache still serves the file from the default htdocs directory, 
rather than the file in "E:/Documents/htdocs/bj"

I have cleared my cache and tested on 2 different browsers.

What am I still missing?

Thanks,
Jonah

[users@httpd] MOD PROXY startup error: undefined symbol: ap_proxy_is_word

[Sumit Shah <ss...@gce2000.com>]

Hello All,

I added mod_proxy support on my existing Apache2 installation using 'apxs'.

This is what i did:
prompt> apxs -c -i mod_proxy.c

Then I loaded the module in my httpd.conf.

When I restart Apache i get following error:

Syntax error on line 235 of /home/apache2/httpd/prefork/conf/httpd.conf:
Cannot load /home/apache2/httpd/prefork/modules/mod_proxy.so into 
server: /home/apache2/httpd/prefork/modules/mod_proxy.so: undefined 
symbol: ap_proxy_is_word

I looked up on Google and I have seen posts where people had to 
reinstall Apache. Can we do it on an existing Apache installation?

Thanks
Sumit

Ok - that much looks good.

It sure sounds like you are doing the right things.  Try this - once the
httpd window is closed, look in your Task Manager (rt-click the start bar)
and see that there are no 'apache' or 'httpd' processes running.  If there
are, kill them and let us know - terminating the httpd you 'see' in the
console window should be killing them off.
