Pro Apache
In addition to installation, maintenance, and deployment, the book demonstrates how to configure Apache to use Perl, PHP, and Python as server-side scripting languages. And unlike other books on Apache, Pro Apache provides comprehensive information on both major revisions - 1.3 and 2.0 - of the software.

OS X.5: Configure Apache 2 to point at my Sites Directory (ver 2)

Published in: Apache

There is another way to point Apache 2 to my Sites directory after upgrading Tiger to Leopard
1. I used textmate to open this file
/etc/apache2/httpd.conf
2. I commented this line
#DocumentRoot "/Library/WebServer/Documents"
3. Replaced it with this line instead
DocumentRoot "/Users/mac_user_shortname/Sites"
4. Added a file titled mac_user_shortname.conf to :
/etc/apache2/users/
5. Include this snippet into mac_user_shortname.conf

Plain TextExpand

<Directory "/Users/mac_user_shortname/Sites/">
    Options Indexes MultiViews
    AllowOverride None
    Order allow,deny
    Allow from all
</Directory>
