Hi, first post. I have no Linux experience. I have an e-friend that set me up a VPS and my website with Apache and FTP access so I could upload my files the way I do it regularly with my shared hosting. The OS in the VPS is Fedora by the way. Now the thing is:
http://www.mydomain.com presents itself with a standard welcoming page from Apache/Fedora. When I insert an index.html inside the var/www/html I get a 403 Forbidden error. With my limited knowledge I assume this is a permissions issue so I go into the FTP and CHMOD it, however, no CHMOD works, it comes back as:
Code:
550 SITE CHMOD command failed
My understanding is that something isn't allowing me to CHMOD the html folder, however, I don't know if that's really needed for what I want to do, which is just upload my files (basically, my website) to the html folder. If there is a way to do this, I'm all hears

The index.html file was in the www folder as expected.

Hi all,
Exactly like my title says.
I am learning PHP and MySQL and I used to use /var/www/ to host (contain or store) my files (.htm/.php) for testing. I could configure, finally, apache2 to use ~/public_html instead.
Now I when I tried to use $_SERVER it still directs (I used echo to show... (7 Replies)

apache(1M) System Administration Commands apache(1M)NAME
apache - Apache hypertext transfer protocol server overview
DESCRIPTION
apache consists of a main server daemon, loadable server modules, some additional support utilities, configuration files, and documenta-
tion.
FILES
The apache HTTPD server is integrated with Solaris.
The following files specify the installation locations for apache:
/etc/apache Contains server configuration files.
A newly-installed server must be manually configured before use. Typically this involves copying httpd.conf-example
to the httpd.conf file and making local configuration adjustments.
/usr/apache/bin Contains the httpd executable as well as other utility programs.
/usr/apache/htdocs Contains the Apache manual in HTML format. This documentation is accessible by way of a link on the server test
page that gets installed upon fresh installation.
/usr/apache/include Contains the Apache header files, which are needed for building various optional server extensions with apxs(8)
/usr/apache/jserv Contains documention for the mod_jserv java servlet module. Documention can be read with a web browser using the
url:
file:/usr/apache/jserv/docs/index.html
/usr/apache/libexec Contains loadable modules (DSOs) supplied with the server. Any modules which are added using apxs(8)are also copied
into this directory.
/usr/apache/man Contains man pages for the server, utility programs, and mod_perl.
Add this directory to your MANPATH to read the Apache man pages. See NOTES.
/usr/apache/perl5 Contains the modules and library files used by the mod_perl extension to Apache.
/var/apache/cgi-bin Default location for the CGI scripts.
This can be changed by altering the httpd.conf file and restarting the server.
/var/apache/htdocs Default document root.
This can be changed by altering the httpd.conf file and restarting the server.
/var/apache/icons Icons used by the server.
This normally shouldn't need to be changed.
/var/apache/logs Contains server log files.
The formats, names, and locations of the files in this directory can be altered by various configuration directives
in the httpd.conf file.
/var/apache/proxy Directory used to cache pages if the caching feature of mod_proxy is enabled in the httpd.conf file.
The location of the cache can also be changed by changing the proxy configuration in the httpd.conf file.
