This is getting very frustrating.  I am trying to change the location for the write of my access_log file through the CustomLog Directive.  In the apache install for the mac, it is currently located in

/private/var/log/httpd/access_log

I have created a new folder in my home directory at the following location

/Library/Logs/apachelogs

Bill, /Library/Logs/apachelogs is not in your home directory. ~/Library/Logs/apachelogs would be.


Make sure your /Library/Logs/apachelogs directory is indeed in /Library and not the Library in your home directory. It should be owned and writable by root.

If it still won't start try to start it with sudo /usr/sbin/httpd on the command line and see if it returns any errors in Terminal.



I have modified the CustomLog Directive to reflect that


CustomLog “/Library/Logs/apachelogs/access_log” Common

, when I stop and start apache through the apachectl command, httpd fails to start.  I receive the following:

 sudo /usr/sbin/apachectl start
 Processing config directory: /private/etc/httpd/users/*.conf
  Processing config file: /private/etc/httpd/users/bgkent.conf
  Processing config file: /private/etc/httpd/users/billkent.conf
  Processing config file: /private/etc/httpd/users/lauren.conf
 /usr/sbin/apachectl start: httpd could not be started

The only sense I can make of this is the labels in front of .conf are all the user profiles set up on my computer.  Do I need to make this a relative path starting from the Macintosh hard drive?  Any advice would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Bill Kent
