I have installed Apache Http Server 2.2. I know it is old but need to do some analysis.
I can see there is configuration file name as httpd.conf (found at location InstallDIR\Apache Software Foundation\Apache2.2\conf).
Some places i found they have maintain ssl configuration separate file name as ssl.conf and other configuration in separate file name as local.conf file.
But i can see no such files are present on my conf folder.
Can you please help me here how I can do separation ?
Note: Apache Http Server installed on Windows machine.
Thanks in Advance.

I just to ask a simple question. I am studying the vhost configuration but I am confused where should I properly put my vhosts configuration?
I have a file that has a name httpd-vhosts.conf and httpd.conf
I try to put my configuration in these 2 files but different web projects. And after I restarted my Wampserver I can access them. Is it fine if I place all my vhost entries in the file httpd-vhosts.conf ? Or should I place it in httpd.conf
There is no right or wrong. Apache has one global config file, which typically is the default or specified in the startup script.
This file then uses one or more secondary config files and directories. Different Linux distributions use different default include directories.
On CentOS I think for example you would put a file (named like your domain but can be anything) in /etc/httpd/conf.d/example-com.conf: http://wiki.centos.org/TipsAndTricks/ApacheVhostDir
What is the root directory of Apache Web Server?
I am using Windows XP. My Apache server is installed at:
C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\
I want to host a server and its manual says:
move all files and subdirectories from that directory to the root directory of the web server
It depends on how you've configured the server. The 'root directory' is actually called the document root, which is the directory from which the Apache HTTP server would serve files from. It can be changed using the DocumentRoot directive, which you should be able to find inside the configuration file(s) (e.g. /etc/apache2/apache2.conf).
From the documentation:
For example, if DocumentRoot were set to /var/www/html then a request for http://www.example.com/fish/guppies.html would result in the file /var/www/html/fish/guppies.html being served to the requesting client.
I have my app that serves on localhost:8080. I want to configure things so that it just servers on localhost:80 (or localhost without the port specified). I was told to follow these instructions.
My apache-tomcat that I downloaded is located at /home/myusername/tools/appname/apache-tomcat-6.0.33
I can't find an httpd.conf file in that dir... so I can't make the changes that the above article mentions. I am not sure what to do. I am new to apache/tomcat. Any help would be great!
Those instructions are for apache, which is different from apache's tomcat. What you have (the 6.0.33 thing) is apache's tomcat, which hosts/runs webapps but isn't typically used as a general webserver. You need to download and install apache, then you'll be able to follow those instructions.
You can download the apache webserver here: http://httpd.apache.org/download.cgi
Or if you are using an OS with a package manager, use your OS'es package manager instead.
Typically, the httpd.conf file should be at /etc/apache2/httpd.conf (or /etc/apache/httpd.conf).
I have setup Apache2 with SSL on a Debian Linux (squeeze) box. In the /etc/apache2/sites-available/default-ssl the SSL Engine is already configured and working. Packages with web software often come with an extra pkg-apache.conf file with some virtualhost, alias and directory directives. How could I make such package available via https without putting the content of pkg-apache.conf into default-ssl? Adapting the to *:433 results in load errors.
You can use the Include directive within your SSL virtual host to point to your extra configuration file. You'll need to make sure that the directives within that extra file can be used within a VirtualHost section.
So I'm trying out JSP for the first time. I found a tutorial that details the installation of the tomcat server and the mod_jk Apache module, but it's a bit outdated. Right now, I've got everything installed and the mod_jk.so file in the modules folder, along with the corresponding loadModule line in the httpd.conf file. The tutorial tells me to copy a file called 'workers.propperties' to the apache conf directory and do some changes inside it, but there's no such file in the win32 binary installation. However, there is a file in the zipped source code, but I'm not sure if I should use it.
I have installed JDK1.6.0U17/JRE6.0/Apache HTTPServer2.2.13/Tomcat6.0.20/Mod_JK1.2.28/Vista
First this question: do you actually need Apache HTTP Server for other purposes? If not, just leave it aside and run Tomcat standlone. I've namely seen too often that starters are somehow under the impression that they need both Apache HTTP Server and Apache Tomcat to be able to run JSP's. This is untrue. Just Tomcat is enough. It's a webserver and servlet container in one.
