The path to the log file for error messages. Usually, it is
logs/error_log
which is relative to the ServerRoot. Often the
directory logs in ServerRoot is a symbolic link to
/var/log/httpd
, which means that the log path above
would result in error messages logged to
/var/log/httpd/error_log
.
You should monitor this log after reconfiguring, as most configuration errors are logged here (Linuxconf sadly catches only a few of them.) Additionally, any failed accesses by clients (non-existent pages, failed authorization and so on) are also logged.
