Topic: I'm an idiot: Corrupted my httpd.conf file!

[djhomeless]

Hi Everyone,
Feeling really stupid here. I really should'nt mess with things when I'm half asleep.

Wanted to make a change in my 90e-smithAccess40ibays template fragment in SME 6.5. I created the templates-custom folder structure, and copied the fragment over to the custom folder, then accidentally made the change to the root file (and not the one in templates-custom). After expanding the httpd.conf template, I find that I've locked down all my sites (403 Error)! Yikes.

I noticed the problem immediatly, and reverted the change. Oddly, I'm still locked out.

Thankfully, I backed up my httpd.conf file so I am not 100% screwed.

The strange thing, is my backed up copy of my httpd.conf file is roughly 74kb. The new version, is now 80kb.

Is there something I'm missing here?

Thanks,

Geoffrey

Groan, I don't know if this is a new feature with 6.5, but when I made the change, accidentally, in the templates folder, it created a backup file with the file extension of .save. So when I recreated the httpd.conf file, it used both the changed file, and the backup file in the process....hence the fact that my original was 8kb smaller than the new httpd.conf file.
