Thread:Manual talk:Short URL/Apache/DOCUMENT ROOT/reply (4)

Thank you Daniel. The configuration of .htaccess does not look simpler, so, I still try to follow the suggestion The recommended way to setup short URLs in Apache is by editing the Apache config files. I think, I should edit httpd.conf ; it is first file mentioned in the instruction, that I find in my server. Perhaps, I am not at the shared host, and, perhaps, I do not use a virtual host. (I am investigating the case.) Also, I do not know, whether the restarting Apache is somehow related to the restarting of server or not. I think, first, I should learn to restart the Apache. (Over-vice, if a crash, I shall not now, is it due to the error at the editing of httpd.conf or due to some error at the restarting procedure.)
