OK..I'm going to make an assumption here and that is that since the
httpd binary is no located under /usr/local that your not using the
config. file in /usr/local.<br>
This is a big assumption, and you should investigate further to be
certain.<br>
<br>
Check both config. files for the "DocumentRoot" setting, place a sample
web page in each different DocumentRoot then try going to your server
via a web browser or something like wget.<br>
You could test this theory by placing a simple web page(as seen below)
in the "DocumentRoot" of each different config. file:<br>
FILE NAME: index.html<br>
FILE CONTENTS: Here is my sample web page for location
/usr/local/httpd.<br>
PERMS: chmod 644 index.html<br>
<br>
If your page shows up from a particular spot, then your using the
config under that file name.<br>
<br>
I'm sure there's also a way to check this via the binary..you might try
something like : "strings /usr/sbin/httpd | grep -i HTTPD_ROOT"<br>
<br>
Taking a look at the man page, you also can see the purported
ServerRoot directory:<br>
-d <b>serverroot</b><br>
"Set the initial value for the ServerRoot directive to
serverroot. This can be overridden by the<br>
ServerRoot directive in the configuration file. <u><b>The
default is /etc/httpd</b></u>."<br>
<br>
Other than that, just testing is probably the quickest way.<br>
<br>
<br>
Good Luck!<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>

Thanks for the reply.
When I do a "which httpd", it returns /usr/sbin/httpd.
Here is the output from "ps aux":

Probably /etc/http/conf/httpd.conf is being used,
but to be sure you
could do an "ps aux" to see the httpd process and
figure out the path
from the output (look for something with httpd or
apache in the name).
Alternatively, you could look in the
/etc/init.d/httpd file to see where
it is picking up the apache binary from.
Look under /var/www/html for the pages, but to be
sure look for
"DocumentRoot" in your httpd.conf file.
This file is pretty well commented. Most all basic
config. items for
apache are in this file...start with it.
I haven't used LAMP before, so I can't help much
with that. However,
PHP, MySQL, and Apache are old friends of mine :-)
.
Hope that helped,
---Dean.
