Hi all,

I am a newb on using apache.
I just downloaded and installed apache2.2.2 on WinXP.
I changed the httpd.conf with uncommenting the httpd-userdir.conf
I also enabled mod_userdir
then I start apache

I checked that http://localhost/ goes fine.
however http://localhost/~aaa/ got 404 error.

I checked the error log and it show that the page C:/Program files/Apache Software Foundation/Apache2.2/htdocs/~aaa does not exist.

Why apache get the doc from DocumentRoot, instead of from the directory specified in the httpd-userdir.conf (My documents/My website) ?

What else setting I missed?


any help is greatly appreciated.

httpd-userdir.conf is an example.

Did you read
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/howto/public_html.html ?

Did you set this?

Code:

UserDir "C:/Documents and Settings/*/My documents/My website"

Hi Steffen, I did read the howto doc

Thanks James. I just think that the out-of-the-box httpd-userdir is ok. I did not realize that full path should be used, which is not cover in the howto.

it is in the howto! I'm sure, but many Windows users see that, because most manuals from apache.org are still only with Unix / Linux samples!
