Top Forums Web Development $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'] directs to /var/www not ~/public_html Post 302906588 by faizlo on Saturday 21st of June 2014 01:39:10 AM

Hi Neo

The box I use is my own box at home. I am using it to learn Web Development with PHP and MySQL, so I can do anything I want with it - no problem.
That said, I could configure apache2 to use ~/public_html via commenting few lines in /etc/apache2/mods_available/php5.conf. The instructions were in the file itself.

One other thing is that my httpd.conf file (in /etc/apache2/) has nothing in it, it's empty (of size 0.)

I hope these info can help you figure out how to use ~/public_html/

NAME
git-instaweb - Instantly browse your working repository in gitweb SYNOPSIS
git instaweb [--local] [--httpd=<httpd>] [--port=<port>] [--browser=<browser>] git instaweb [--start] [--stop] [--restart] DESCRIPTION
A simple script to set up gitweb and a web server for browsing the local repository. OPTIONS
-l, --local Only bind the web server to the local IP (127.0.0.1). -d, --httpd The HTTP daemon command-line that will be executed. Command-line options may be specified here, and the configuration file will be added at the end of the command-line. Currently apache2, lighttpd, mongoose, plackup and webrick are supported. (Default: lighttpd) -m, --module-path The module path (only needed if httpd is Apache). (Default: /usr/lib/apache2/modules) -p, --port The port number to bind the httpd to. (Default: 1234) -b, --browser The web browser that should be used to view the gitweb page. This will be passed to the git web--browse helper script along with the URL of the gitweb instance. See git-web--browse(1) for more information about this. If the script fails, the URL will be printed to stdout. start, --start Start the httpd instance and exit. Regenerate configuration files as necessary for spawning a new instance. stop, --stop Stop the httpd instance and exit. This does not generate any of the configuration files for spawning a new instance, nor does it close the browser. restart, --restart Restart the httpd instance and exit. Regenerate configuration files as necessary for spawning a new instance. CONFIGURATION
You may specify configuration in your .git/config [instaweb] local = true httpd = apache2 -f port = 4321 browser = konqueror modulePath = /usr/lib/apache2/modules If the configuration variable instaweb.browser is not set, web.browser will be used instead if it is defined. See git-web--browse(1) for more information about this. SEE ALSO
