Re: Does CakePHP require a change of document root?

If you keep reading, they tell you that it is not required

"Some users on shared hosts without access to their httpd.conf directives may not be able to change their DocumentRoot to reflect the production setup. Users in that situation may want to try and structure their Cake installation as follows. The Cake installation is found at /path_to_cake_install, and the DocumentRoot (which cannot be changed) points to/public_html."

hi cant help you much on this .

.but looks like the following cakephp feature
http://oss.org.cn/ossdocs/php/CakePHP-Manual/ch03s03.html

might be the reason of conflict....actually Apache sets the
environment variable $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'] to your root
directory...but cakephp requires changing that....

Thanks alot for informing me about this now i need to think about any fix
