#7273: RFE: httpd-userdir.conf not modified to work on Mac OS X (apache2 port) --------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: ryandesign@macports.org | Owner: james@imajes.info Type: defect | Status: closed Priority: Normal | Milestone: Port Enhancements Component: ports | Version: 1.2 Resolution: fixed | Keywords: Port: apache2 | --------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Changes (by ryandesign@macports.org): * port: => apache2 * reporter: opendarwin-2006@ryandesign.com => ryandesign@macports.org * milestone: => Port Enhancements Old description:

The httpd-userdir.conf file included with apache2 is designed for Unix systems having home directories in /home and web files in a public_html directory. Mac OS X, however, has home directories in /Users and web files in a Sites directory. The httpd-userdir.conf file needs to be patched by the darwinports apache2 portfile, especially since, even if I modify the file locally, it gets replaced the next time I upgrade apache2.

It would be a good idea for someone to check how the apache 1 port behaves in this regard, and open a related bug report for that if necessary.
