Yes Cliff. That's exactly my stance. A) am a beginner and am learning this stuff for the 1st time - no previous experience what so ever to reference, never done any debuggin. B) I don't understand why the help sys worked in 7.1 but failed to work properly on 7.2 - which is a better version in a lot of other ways. I would really like to see something in the middle ground of howto/man/info docs. I have noticed for a few years that most computer based literature on how one configures or operates with a specific program is either writing for the "how do I use a mouse" crowd, or "I have a masters in computer sci and have been programming for 10 years" crowd. What about those that lay somewhere in between? Just MHO, Curtis :) On Tuesday 16 October 2001 00:00, Cliff Sarginson wrote:

I have hit the self same problem on a new 7.2 installation. Seems to me it is looking in the wrong place (permissions are fine).
Guys, please do a little bit of debugging yourselves. Have a look in /var/log/httpd/error.log and you shall see the answer to all your problems.
Hold on there padre ! I am all for a little debugging, I do it for a living. However it is a little pathetic that a *help-system* on an out of the box installation, does not work ! At least for some people. If it was worrying me that much I would have found the answer.
Pretty damn basic bug in a distribution I would say.
Sloppy pre-release testing is the cause.
And btw how pray may someone who is a complete beginner know f*ck* about httpd ?
