[gentoo-user] apache https setup

[gentoo-user] apache https setup

[Roger Mason]

Hello,

I'm trying to set up an apache https server.  I keep getting "Page Load
Error" when trying to connect.  I'm using apache 2.0.58.  I've generated
certificates, worked my way through various problems and apache starts
OK, asking me for the passphrase for the certificate, but it is not
serving up pages.

The error_log contains this:

[Fri Jul 17 13:30:01 2009] [error] [client 127.0.0.1] File does not
exist: /usr/htdocs

The error is correct in that /usr/htdocs does not exist, but I have
set 00_default_vhost.conf to serve documents out of:

DocumentRoot "/var/www/htdocs"

I have spent quite a lot of time searching the web and modifying the
various config files but I can't get the thing to work.  Any help will
be much appreciated.

Thanks,
Roger

I think that you have not configured your vhosts right, otherwise you would 
not be getting the error about /usr/htdocs - that is probably the default 
directory path in your apache configuration?

I cannot access a gentoo apache server at this moment to compare and you don't 
really show nearly enough info from your configuration files, so it may be 
worth having a look at this old wiki page (but take it with a pinch of salt 
as things may have changed slightly since):

HTH.
