[SOLVED] Apache won't update htdocs files?
Hi, I've installed Apache 2 on Ubuntu linux 10.04 as a simple LAN site for testing PHP scripts.
But even though I've deleted the default index.html file in htdocs, changed the index file to index.php, put an index.php, chmoded to 775, and gave ownership of the folder to my account, it will not update any of the files.
Any time I go to 127.0.1.1 or 127.0.0.1 (Both work, somehow), it has the "It works!" page instead of the page I put there. And yes, I've tried restarting apache, restarting my computer, etc.
What's the problem and/or how do I fix it?
Thanks,

tl;dr: Apache keeps displaying the "It works" page even though I've replaced it. How do I fix it?
PS: YES, THIS WORKS ON WINDOWS. So don't bug me about
this being an Apache question, it's specific to Ubuntu.

Hello,
Edit /etc/apache2/httpd.conf and, for example, write:
ServerName localhost
DocumentRoot /var/www/
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName (web address, you can put anything if you have not really serving )
DocumentRoot /var/www/
</VirtualHost>
Now, put your index.php in /var/www
I hope this help you
Regards
