I am able to install Apache in my XP home edition.
I did put a very simple index.html /apache/htdocs/index.html
and when I type in
http://localhost/index.html, I get this error :
Not Found.
Please tell me where should I put the index.html?
Thanks.
PS. I did not change httpd.conf and here is part of it
DocumentRoot "/apache/htdocs"
#
# Each directory to which Apache has access, can be configured with respect
# to which services and features are allowed and/or disabled in that
# directory (and its subdirectories).
#
# First, we configure the "default" to be a very restrictive set of
# permissions.

<Directory />
Options FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride None
