Finding httpd a good home

At this stage, you should move httpd's control files from the directory you have been working in to the directory you defined as ServerRoot in the server configuration file.

Unless you have redefined their locations in the server configuration file, you will have to move the following files and directories into ServerRoot:

httpd : The server itself
conf : Configuration files
logs : Access log and error log
support : Support programs
htbin : Server scripts (GET)
htbin-post : Server scripts (POST)

The logs directory should be writable by the User your server is running as.
