The Web Server Configuration File

The Virtual Private Server Apache Web Server configuration file is located at:

~/usr/local/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf

It can also be accessed using the www symbolic link as ~/www/conf/httpd.conf.

You must Restart Your Web Server after making changes to either the ~/www/conf/httpd.conf file.

To Configure the Web Server, you must make modifications and additions to this file. There are several ways to do this.

• Use a UNIX file editor, such as pico or vi. These editors can be used during a SSH or Telnet session with your server.

• Download the file to your own PC, modify it, and then upload it back to the server. If you are transferring the file via FTP, be sure to use ASCII mode.

  • Transferring Files To and From a Virtual Private Server
