Question I am getting messages
Code:
[Sat Oct 07 09:36:36.292292 2017] [access_compat:error] [pid 6728:tid 900] [client 127.0.0.1:53963] AH01797: : C:/apache

in the Apache error log.

Note that no accessing client name is given.

Note that C:/apache is a nonexistent folder. My Apache is installed in C:\Apache24 .

I use the Order directive in many places. I am hoping that I don't have to track down all the config and htaccess files in which it may be used, just the ones (if any) where it is used incorrectly, generating this error.

Anyone have a specific answer which is based on sure knowledge rather than guessing?

Windows 8.1
Apache 2.4.9 (32 bit)
PHP 5.5.10

No specific answers, guessing :

You are looking for guys with knowledge, you are lucky: Have a look for pointers at www.apachelounge.com/viewtopic.php?p=2863

2.4.9 is very old, advice to upgrade.

Xing, Thank you. I've been holding back on installing a newer version of PHP because it would break some of my mySQL code which is not trivial to comply with the latest required PHP syntax.

The link you provide is to an unrelated problem involving building PHP from c code. I am not interested in building PHP.

I am serious that I don't want guesses.

Oops wrong copy : https://www.apachelounge.com/viewtopic.php?p=28631

I've found mixing old and new style access directives has varied odd behaviors.

Xing, I've already seen this posting. I don't want to go through all this work unless it is necessary.

I am serious that I don't want guesses. I wish to find the specific place of error.

Thanks anyway.

Well then I guess you need to post your config at http://apaste.info/ and give us the link/s to those posts. You have a very strange incomplete error there so without seeing anything else, what else can we do but guess or just let the question go unanswered. Smile

glsmith, That is very kind of you, but I have to think about it and read over my config file, as I don't want anything public that might make me vulnerable to malicious users.
