Adding Content
There are several ways you can add content to your HP WebWise MPE/iX Secure Web Server:
• Create additional files and directories below the DocumentRoot of /APACHE/PUB/htdocs.
• Use the Alias configuration directive to point to content directories outside of the DocumentRoot.
• Create symbolic links below the DocumentRoot of /APACHE/PUB/htdocs which point to content outside
of the DocumentRoot subdirectory. Note that this only works with the default configuration setting of
Options FollowSymLinks.
• Create user-based content accessible via URLs of the format
http://your.host.name/~USER.ACCOUNT/foo.html. HP WebWise MPE/iX Secure Web Server will look
for a file called /ACCOUNT/GROUP/public_html/foo.html where GROUP is the home group of the MPE
user USER.ACCOUNT.
Note that in all cases your content files and directories must have appropriate security that allows them to be
read by the HP WebWise MPE/iX Secure Web Server runtime user of WWW.APACHE.
