Where is Apache directory on Linux?

The Usual Places

  • /etc/httpd/httpd. conf.
  • /etc/httpd/conf/httpd. conf.
  • /usr/local/apache2/apache2. conf —if you’ve compiled from source, Apache is installed to /usr/local/ or /opt/ , rather than /etc/.

Where is my Apache root directory?

1 Answer. The default document root for Apache is /var/www/ (before Ubuntu 14.04) or /var/www/html/ (Ubuntu 14.04 and later). See the file /usr/share/doc/apache2/README.
