Hello...

I downloaded the latest Apache and after reading the README (still too complex for my newToThis state), decided to try a blind "./config --prefix" type install. After manually creating the /usr/local/Apache directory, it seemed to complete the installation process as indicated.

Now however I have the old httpd.conf file in the /etc/httpd/conf directory and the new httpd.conf in /usr/local/Apache/conf.

At this point I'm stuck to check which one's being used. I've a feeling the old one is still in use as it points to the correct DocumentRoot. Nevertheless it appears that the new Apache version is running as the default web server...

How do I check the initialization process on boot-up, and be sure which of the two httpd.conf files I can remove?

Thanks
/j-p.

You could try renaming one of them and restart apache and see if it craps out.
