Why doesn't my custom virtual directive includes appear in the httpd.conf?

[robertnorris]

hi there,

I followed the instructions at Changes Contained within a VirtualHost Directive

and thought I'd try including a custom file for all virtual hosts by putting custom.conf in the folder for all VirtualHost containers: /usr/local/apache/conf/userdata/$includename.conf

Restart httpd. No difference to the httpd.conf.

So I thought I'd try my luck by doing one specifically for an addon domain.

I copied the address from the httpd.conf ie /usr/local/apache/conf/userdata/std/2/myuser/mydomain.com/*.conf

I uncommented this line also.

Restart httpd. No difference to the httpd.conf file..

What am I missing? I've done this before on a different server using cpanel. Do I have to enable something somewhere to include custom conf files?

Did you also run these commands?

/scripts/verify_vhost_includes
/scripts/ensure_vhost_includes --all-users
/scripts/rebuildhttpdconf
/etc/init.d/httpd restart

If not, you do need to have the "/scripts/ensure_vhost_includes --all-users" command processed before restarting Apache, since it's a requirement to add the include into the httpd.conf file using that command.
