What you are seeing is correct behavior, DocumentRoot is an absolute path, whether you have specified this or not. If httpd sees an incomplete path, it is going to work out an absolute path from the ServerRoot If it appends the default and cannot establish a full path, you will receive the indicated error.
It seems your ServerRoot/config is equally problematic, if httpd.conf exists in the root of a system volume. There should be nothing that is significant about the volume C:, but there may be something very significant about the permissions of that volume, etc. On Fri, Mar 10, 2017 at 7:25 AM, Ishan Thakur <ishanthaku...@yahoo.in.invalid> wrote: > Hi All, > > We are using http-2.2.31 for our application on Windows. > We are running our application as Local Service on Windows. > The problem description is as follows: > “We are setting the documentRoot as “web”(no complete absolute path).
