Solar, |

Have a look at http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=20642 with regards to |
| 6 |
automatically determining DocumentRoot. |
| 7 |
|
| 8 |
Synopsis is that a simple grep breaks configurations that use virtual hosts. |
| 9 |
|
| 10 |
Also consider what happens if a user uses a webserver other than apache |
| 11 |
(there's rarely anything about a bunch of HTML, PHP, and CGI scripts that's |
| 12 |
apache-specific). There really should be a virtual/httpd to cover this. |
| 13 |
|
| 14 |
Reliably detecting the doc root on all possible installations is very hard |
| 15 |
indeed. |
| 16 |
|
| 17 |
After discussion with others, my recommendation is that the document root |
| 18 |
should always be /home/httpd/htdocs. You could allow this to be overridden |
| 19 |
with DOCUMENT_ROOT= in /etc/make.conf if you're feeling generous. |
