Where's the module files for the build-in Apache in Snow Leopard

Question

I'm new to Mac OS X and I'm going to do some dev work under Snow Leopard. I enabled the build-in apache and found things below in file etc/apache2/httpd.conf:

LoadModule alias_module libexec/apache2/mod_alias.so LoadModule rewrite_module libexec/apache2/mod_rewrite.so LoadModule bonjour_module libexec/apache2/mod_bonjour.so

But I cannot find the "libexec" directory in my system, did I make something wrong?

Answer 1

The config files are in /etc/apache2 and the modules live in /usr/libexec/apache2.

The paths in httpd.conf are relative to HTTPD_ROOT, which can be found be saying httpd -V.

Answer 2

• Go to your Hard Disk Drive in Finder
• Press "Shift + Command + Point (.)"
  It will display Hidden folders.
• Go to "/usr/libexec/apache2"

Voila!

There are apache modules.
