Hi I know this is a probably a bit basic but It is giving me big headachs...

I am migrating from IIS to Apache and the install seems to have gone OK as when I point to localhost in my browser I get an Apache web page...I am trying to find the root directory for this but I can't seem to find it anyware??

Under IIS it was in C:\inetpub\wwwroot

I know this is real basic stuff but I can't seem to find this directory or the index page that is currently being displayed...

Can anyone point me in the right direction...

Any help would be much appreciated..

Thanks Ian...

If you kept all default values during installation then you would find them in
C:\Program Files\Apache Group\Apache2\htdocs

Is there something else I need do to enable php?
