h1. Differences between Linux flavors 

 Different Linux flavors often put web server and mysql-related files in different locations. This can be confusing. From experience, we found the equivalent on CentOS vs SuSE. Here we list them for reference. If your system uses use a different naming and you are willing to share your experience, please send us the list. We will add it here: 

 Table Different File locations and Commands on CentOS vs SUSE 

 |_.File or Command Head|_.CentOS|_.SuSE| 
 | php.ini|/etc/| /etc/php5/apache2/| 
 | httpd.conf|/etc/httpd/conf/|/etc/php5/apache2/| 
 | default document_root|/var/www/html/|/srv/www/htdocs/| 
 | apache start/stop/restart command head|/sbin/service httpd|/etc/init.d/apache2| 
 | mysql start/stop/restart command head|/sbin/service mysqld|/etc/init.d/mysql|
