I am installing Koha from source. Generic unix directions indicate the following step after sudo make install

sudo ln -s /etc/koha/koha-httpd.conf /etc/apache2/sites-available/koha

huh?

My apache2 directory contains no sites-available, only /private/etc/apache2/extra /private/etc/apache2/httpd.conf /private/etc/apache2/magic /private/etc/apache2/mime.types /private/etc/apache2/original /private/etc/apache2/other /private/etc/apache2/users

I am supposed to be able to Browse to htt开发者_Python百科p://servername:8080/ to run Koha, where I take it "servername" is specified in koha-httpd.conf as follows:

## Intranet
<VirtualHost 192.168.1.4:8080>
   ServerAdmin webmaster@local
   DocumentRoot /usr/share/koha/intranet/htdocs

However when I go to http://john-breedloves-mac-mini.local:8080/, I get:

It works!

Which,is, like ironical or something.

Help a noob out.

It looks like /private/etc/apache2/other/ would be the approximately corresponding folder. /etc/apache2/httpd.conf contains a directive Include /private/etc/apache2/other/*.conf that includes all files in that folder, much like the sites-available folder common on Linux installations of Apache.

Run apachectl -S which is shorthand for apachectl -t -D DUMP_VHOSTS

According to the apachectl man file, this will show parsed settings (currently only vhost settings). Incidentally, it also checks your config file for errors.

Andrew's answer is correct. On my install, I additionally had to change

Order allow,deny
Deny from all

to

Order allow,deny
Allow from all

in /etc/apache2/httpd.conf.

The fact that you're getting a server at :8080 indicates that you may be running a different apache config from the base system install, such as MAMP; I don't believe that apache by default listens on :8080.

I had this problem too. It seems to occour because the default version of apache that is installed on osx over-rides other versions. to disable it go to "System Preferences > Sharing" and untick "web sharing".

good luck!

Please note that ServerRoot specifies where the subdirectories conf and logs can be found.

In my httpd.conf, it is set to /usr
