After the search on the Internet, wrote the following summary, mainly for their own later encounter the same problems can be faster to find, and if you can help to use the people, it would be better.

more detailed version:

Note: This article takes the Apache HTTP Server 2.2.6 as an example. About the specific installation of the Apache HTTP server 2.2.6 I'm not going to say this, if you really want to know or want to get the Apache HTTP Server 2.2.6 installer, you can email me, My e-mail is hyiyun@139.com.

First, modify the default site Directory of Apache

When Apache HTTP server is installed, the default site directory is located in the Htdocs folder under its installation directory, and the default first page is the index.html file for that folder. For example, my Apache is installed in the C:\Program files\apache Software foundation\apache2.2\, then my Apache's complete default Site Directory address is C:\Program files\ Apache Software foundation\apache2.2\htdocs\, the default home page is C:\Program files\apache Software foundation\apache2.2\htdocs\ Index.html.
Many times, whether it is learning, testing, or to really build their own site, we may not want to put their own site in the Apache default site directory, at this time, this section of knowledge will help you solve this problem.

To modify the method:

2, double hit open httpd.conf this text document, and then press the keyboard ctrl+f key combination to find "DocumentRoot "(double quotes in English, see Figure 2), after finding out (only one place), the string "DocumentRoot"The string within the double quotation marks is modified to the site directory that you want to set.

such as: Default for DocumentRoot "C:/Program Files/apache Software Foundation/apache2.2/htdocs", is now modified into DocumentRoot "D:/apachetest"



Figure 2: Find "DocumentRoot "The string

3, after completing the 2nd step above, do not close httpd.conf file, continue to find, find "<directory "(with double quotes in English, see Figure 3), after you find "<directory", modify the string in double quotes behind the first "directory" string to the site directory that you want to set.

For example: The default is <directory "C:/Program files/apache Software Foundation/apache2.2/htdocs", is now modified into <directory "D:/ Apachetest ">
