Subject: instaweb does not start because of a small syntax error in .git/gitweb/httpd.conf
Date: Sat, 18 Jul 2009 17:08:19 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4A61E563.7000401@superdigi.de> (raw)

When I start instaweb with

  git instaweb

I get this error:

  Syntax error on line 8 of /media/disk1part4/Eigene Dateien/superdigi/superdigientwicklung/.git/gitweb/httpd.conf:
  TypesConfig takes one argument, the MIME types config file
  Could not execute http daemon apache2 -f.

Line 8 of /.git/gitweb/httpd.conf reads

  TypesConfig /media/disk1part4/Eigene Dateien/superdigi/superdigientwicklung/.git/mime.types

As you see, there is a space in the path so it should be quotes:

  TypesConfig "/media/disk1part4/Eigene Dateien/superdigi/superdigientwicklung/.git/mime.types"

In all other lines of http.conf the path is correctly in quotes:

  ServerName "git-instaweb"
  ServerRoot "/media/disk1part4/Eigene Dateien/superdigi/superdigientwicklung/.git/gitweb"
  DocumentRoot "/media/disk1part4/Eigene Dateien/superdigi/superdigientwicklung/.git/gitweb"
  PidFile "/media/disk1part4/Eigene Dateien/superdigi/superdigientwicklung/.git/pid"
