Hi

We are running a small intranet on Apache 2.4 on Windows 7 Pro & I want to move the htdocs folder location to a network share.

The share is mapped & working but when I edit httpd.conf to the new location, the Apache server won't start.

The share location is //servername/toplevel/htdocsfolder

Any ideas/suggestions?

Thanks

You need to change the "Log On As" field for the Apache service from the Local System to a user that CAN access the "htdocsfolder " shared folder from the remote computer.
