Server 10.8 User Websites 404 - where did ~user/Sites go?
Well, I've spent the past 12 hours on this problem...
Replaced our companies outside-user 9-year old Xserve with a Mac Pro Server.
As many have posted, web services to my.company.ext:/~username/ no longer works - Apache has to be directed somehow to look in a users Sites folder.
I've tried the UserDir Sites option in the httpd.conf - and a lot of other desperate attempts, without sucess. Not many posts on Mountain Lion (10.8) - suggestions for 10.7 don't seem to apply. Apache doesn't even load its pages from the default directories anymore (/Library/WebServer/Documents)... I found I had to modify the index.html.en file in the directory /Library/Server/Web/Data/Sites/Default/, in order to just get a web page up to inform extremely irritated users that we are working on it.
How do I enable the web pages for individual user websites?
Looks like this is the last OS X server we will evey buy... this has been a nightmare.
