Hi,

Below is my virtual host tag.

I want to know wat significance the DocumentRoot has, as shown below in the tag.I am not very clear about it.

<VirtualHost *:443>
ServerName www.scotiaconnectdev.scotiabank.com
ServerAlias scotiaconnectdev.scotiabank.com *.scotiaconnectdev.scotiabank.com
DocumentRoot "C:\program files\ibm http server/docroot"
ErrorLog logs/scotiaconnectdev.com-error.log
TransferLog logs/scotiaconnectdev.com-access.log
SSLClientAuth none
SSLEnable
</VirtualHost>

DocumentRoot specifies where the root directory for the virtual host is:
e.g. In your case https://www.scotiaconnectdev.scotiabank.com/index.html
will be loaded from C:\program files\ibm http server/docroot directory
https://www.scotiaconnectdev.scotia...ges/myimage.gif will be
loaded from C:\program files\ibm http server/docroot/images directory and so
on and so forth.
