Hi. I don't know when it stop working but I can't access my personal folder. Apache is working but, if you try to reach my personal folder(http://0.0.0.0/~userfolder). An error 404 comes up. :confused: Any clue why? I have check Apple and MacOSXHints and no answer for this problem.
Thanks,

you should be using:
http://127.0.0.1/~user
or
http://www.zzcoke.com/~user

Yes, the standard localhost is 127.0.0.1, the reason I did 0.0.0.0 was to show that it was being access via tcp, I didn't want to post some address that some would try to reach. I only want to explain that /~userdir from the ip wasn't working. I
have now learn that it's because I am using an ip and not a real host name. On servers where you are using a host name it will access the /~ but if you are using an ip you have to http://0.0.0.0/~userdir/ in order to access the User Folder. So I have to see what in Apple's Apache can be change to let it work like anyother Apache with a real host.:confused:
I am sorry that I have confuse anyone with the 0.0.0.0. I know that in ipchain 0.0.0.0 means anywhere, but that Linux and Not MacOSX. Thanks.

i am running the stock apache on my imac 333 as a webserver and i can access that sitting at the machine my typing in http://ip/~user or http://ip/~user/ or http://hostname/~user or http://hostname/~user/ and so i tried it at one of my work stations and it did the same thing, they all seemed to work. just for chuckles i turned on apache on my ibook 500 and it acted the same way. i hope this helps.
