Topic: Upgraded Apache rpm

[OSD]

Hi,
I just rpm -Uvh 'd the following updates from the ftp server (i'm running 4.1.2):

apache-1.3.19-5.i386.rpm
e-smith-base-4.4.0-26.noarch.rpm
e-smith-openssh-1.2.0-11.noarch.rpm
e-smith-pptpd-1.2.0-05.noarch.rpm
mod_ssl-2.8.1-5.i386.rpm

I rebooted the server.
When I tried accessing the web site (from the Internet) I got an Apache Test Page talking about the DocumentRoot needing to be set in the file /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf
So I opened the file in vi (using ssh) and altered the DocumentRoot from /var/www/something to be /home/e-smith/files/primary/html.

Now when I try accessing the web site from the internet I get this error:
Forbidden
You don't have permission to access / on this server.
Apache 1.3.19 Server at blah blah blah Port 80

Would be really grateful for any guidance anyone can offer!
Thanks in advance.

You need to rebuild the configuration files.  At a minimum you need to expand-template /etc/httpd/httpd.conf, but you probably need to signal-event post-upgrade.

Thanks for the instructions.
When I typed /sbin/e-smith/expand-template /etc/httpd/httpd.conf
I got this:
No templates were found for //etc/httpd/httpd.conf

when i try /sbin/e-smith/expand-template etc/httpd/httpd.conf i get
No templates were found for /etc/httpd/httpd.conf

Do I have a missing file or something?

Thankyou for any guidance.

/sbin/e-smith/expand-template /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf
that command was accepted by e-smith.  

then I /sbin/e-smith/signal-event post-upgrade as you suggested.  that command seemed to go ok.

but still I get the 403 Forbidden error?
