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 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|
