CentOS - Apr 2012 - The requested URL was not found on this server

Greetings Dear Friends,

I am seeking assistance from Apache experts friends. i recently installed
cacti Graphing Solution.

The main Cacti folder exist under "/var/www/html/cacti" and we all
knows
that default DocumentRoot under CentOS is

DocumentRoot "/var/www/html"

Following is Virtual Virtual Host under "conf.d"

Alias /cacti /var/www/html/cacti/
<Directory /var/www/html/cacti/>
    DirectoryIndex index.php
    Options -Indexes
    AllowOverride all
    AddType application/x-httpd-php .php
    php_flag magic_quotes_gpc on
    php_flag track_vars on
</Directory>

if i try browsing cacti, i can login without problem. But if i try to
follow other links on the page. For example i have clicked on Graphs icon.
i see the following error.

The requested URL /graph_view.php was not found on this server

where as this URL (graph_view.php) exist on the server, that is under
Cacti folder "/var/www/html/cacti/graph_view.php".

But Apache is looking under DocumentRoot that is
"/var/www/html/graph_view.php".


if i change DocuemtRoot to following, (And virtual host directory and
alias directive as well) everything is fine.

DocumentRoot "/var/www/html/cacti"

Changing DocumentRoot actually disturb other front ends setup. i have
Nagios & zabbix installed on same machine. which i use to monitor stuff.

is there anything i can do to maintain DocumentRoot to default that is.
DocumentRoot "/var/www/html"

You need to tell Cacti where the root of the installation is. Have a
look for the line

$url_path = "/";

in config.php and set as needed.

$url_path = "/cacti/";

Did you not see my reply on the 14th?  I quote:

Notice the error doesn't have /cacti/ in the URL.  Check your cacti
configuration for $url_path.
