My provider just installed cPanel/WHM on my openVZ VPS.
I went to check /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf
but I did not find it.
I emailed support. The response was that Apache was not installed.

Now does the VPS version of cPanel/WHM use an http engine other than Apache?
If so is there any documentation on this?

Normally you should be able to find your httpd.conf under:

/usr/local/apache/conf

Try executing /scripts/easyapache to install apache

Also, when installing on older distros, it's usually best to fully update the system before installing cPanel. It's possible that a race condition (yum was trying to update while easyapache was trying to install dependencies) occured during install that prevented apache from being installed.

Thanks for all the responses. It was really to confirm my sanity with
what I believe vs what my "Support" personnel had told me.

It was a situation where I spent over 24hrs back and forth with my service provider support
regarding their cPanel installation. The solution - I did it myself within a couple
hours (props to cPanel). And of course the httpd.conf was found where it should have been.

Sincerely,

So your problem WAS really the location of the httpd.conf?

:D
