Default Apache page

depends on your linux distribution, the best solution
is to find the file httpd.conf (locate httpd.conf)
and look for the entry that says DocumentRoot

tc
-nick

By default "/usr/local/apache/htdocs/" holds your documents and "index.html" is the page that is displayed. If you find index.html in that directory, edit it and I think you will have what you want.

If you are using RedHat Linux (7.1/7.2/7.3/8.0) then it will be in either of the following path.

   1. /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf
   2. /etc/httpd/httpd.conf
   3. /etc/httpd.conf

if you are using any other distribution, you can check where it is located by running either of the following commands,

  1. locate httpd.conf
  2. slocate httpd.conf

1.first locate httpd.conf
the best solution to find where it is to type:
find / -name httpd.conf

(possible answers are /usr/local/apache/conf/httpd.conf or /etc/httpd.conf or /etc/httpd/httpd.conf

2.second edit this file with your favourite editor. (nedit if you have x windows or pico if not)

3.find the directive:
DocumentRoot "/path/to/httdocs"

4.that where is your default webpage

5.you can change the path or just go there and replace the html

6.Finish ;)
