New page:
= Moving your default DocRoot =

If you want to move your default !DocumentRoot path, there are two things you 
need to update.

 1. The !DocumentRoot directive
 1. The <Directory> block associated with the !DocRoot.


'''Example Old Configuration'''

For example, your old config may have looked somehting like this :

{{{
...

DocumentRoot /usr/local/apache2/htdocs

<Directory /usr/local/apache2/htdocs>
    AllowOverride None
    Options None
    Order allow,deny
    Allow from all
</Directory>
...
}}}

'''Example New Configuration''' 

Now lets say you want to move the !DocRoot to ''/var/www'' you will need to 
update both of these.

{{{
...

DocumentRoot /var/www

<Directory /var/www>
    AllowOverride None
    Options None
    Order allow,deny
    Allow from all
</Directory>
...
}}}

These steps not only apply to the main server config, but also any 
!VirtualHosts you may want to change.
