Re: Unable to read configuration file within a chroot apach2 setup

Hi List

I have tried the following with no success


<div class="smallfont">
 <form action="/cgi-bin/htsearch">
        Search:
          <input type=text name=words size=15>
          <input type=hidden name=method value=and>
          <input type=hidden name=/chroot/httpd/websites/htdig/conf
value=test2.websites
| <A HREF="/Common/advanced-search.html">Advanced search</A>
          </form>



Cheers
