=='''Hack 81. Validate the httpd.conf after making changes'''==

problem at line 148 in the httpd.conf.debug. mod_auth_basicso is missing a . (period) before the so.


<nowiki># </nowiki>'''httpd -t -f conf/httpd.conf.debug'''


httpd: Syntax error on line 148 of /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf.debug:


Cannot load /etc/httpd/modules/mod_auth_basicso into server:


/etc/httpd/modules/mod_auth_basicso: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory


Once you fix the issue, it will display Syntax OK.


<nowiki># </nowiki>'''httpd -t -f conf/httpd.conf.debug'''


Syntax OK
