[ale] apache woes

[Armsby John-G16665]

You may have already checked this, but you might peruse the httpd.conf file and look at the path specified for the htdocs directory (document root) then compare it to where the file really exists..... If they do not match you have to edit the httpd.conf file or move the htdocs directory.  Once synced up, you will have to restart the apache server...

Apache is giving me fits.  The first couple of times I installed it I
was amazed at how simple it was.  I just installed it an it worked.  I
recently installed Debian 2.2 and now samba and apache are broken. 
Apache gets an error,
[Tue Dec  5 16:17:49 2000] [error] [client 169.238.221.206] File does
not exist: /u
sr/htdocs/
[Tue Dec  5 16:28:25 2000] [error] [client 169.238.221.206] File does
not exist: /u
sr/htdocs/
~
Heck the installation process said the doc root was /var/www.  Anyway
/usr/htdocs exists.  It's got a valid index.html file in it.  The
permissions are open to it (and the directory is 755) and when I point
netscape to the index.html file, it displays the raw html.  It doesn't
format it.

I removed apache completely, removed all of the directories, except the
/usr/htdocs since I didn't know he was going to use it and reinstalled. 
The configuration said the doc root was /var/www, but it lied.

Any idea what's going on here?

Thanks,
Jim.
