Upgrade Mac OSX to Leopard, Web Server Apache httpd config lost
We upgraded one of our Systems to OS X 10.5 (Mac, Leopard) recently and I have just enabled "Web Sharing" ... that's the Apache httpd daemon.
To my horror I saw this ...
... rather than this ...
• The httpd.conf file has MOVED from the /private/etc/httpd to the /private/etc/apache2 directory
• and do not just copy the file as the old 38k (Apache 1.3?) file has been replaced by a new file of just 17k, and a subdirectory called extra which contains a series of files each of which contains the configuration for a feature.
In order to fix the problem, I'm re-implementing all the configuration changes made on the previous releases in the new release - and I know I may come across some further issues. Watch this space - I'll follow up here if I find any more dramatic heart-stoppers!
