I recently built apache 2.0.44 in my solaris 2.8 machine. I'm getting and error on startup.
# ./apachectl start
httpd: could not open document config file /usr/local/apache2/conf/httpd.conf

When I built the server I specified a prefix (--prefix=/space/app/apache) so I don't understand why it's giving me this error.

Anyone have any ideas how I can get past the error?

Hmm ... you sure it's looking in the correct path for the conf file? How about view permissions on that folder and its parent folders - set to allow Apache access?

Other than that, only think I can think of is to do a fresh install and double-check the settings at install, but hopefully someone else will come along with better advice before trying that.
