Well, I already did that. The whole thing got screwed up.
Now, it just shows Failed to Connect. Even tried restarting and shutting down and starting the Mac.

Thanks. Just tried it. But no luck !

I had also edited a couple of other files like httpd.conf in Apache2/original/
and in apache2/users/


What do I do now... ?

Any way to reset the apache service and start all over again...? Like getting a fresh copy for Mac and replacing Apache2 folder..?

Then I can try and change the location again...

Did you backup the originals? You should always have. Playing around with the conf file is not always fun. There is no single install of Apache2 in Mac OS X 10.5, it gets installed when you install the system.

Ok. I have Leopard installed onto an External HD. Now how do I locate the apache2 folder on that HD. Theres no address bar also.

When I type the foll. in Safari, I get the apache2 folder on my Mac: /private/etc/
But when I type disk2s2/private/etc/ nothing happens.
