In the figuring-out process I'm revisiting the whole idea from the |
| 24 |
beginning. I've removed PHP, MySQL and Apache from the server box, |
| 25 |
removed the /var/www tree then reinstalled. I haven't yet started |
| 26 |
reconfiguration; I want to be sure I know what I'm doing first. (Fat |
| 27 |
chance of that!) |

One decision that will have consequences is where in /var/www to put |
| 30 |
mysite. Should it be in /var/www/mysite/htdocs, in |
| 31 |
/var/www/localhost/mysite or in /var/www/localhost/htdocs/mysite? What |
| 32 |
I've read so far suggests that it doesn't matter, but I'm damn sure if I |
| 33 |
put it in the wrong place I'll suffer for it. And what ownership should |
| 34 |
mysite's files have? My user is in the apache group on the server. |

Many thanks for your help. |
