Thread: Changing Apache directory

so i'm setting web server in ubuntu, , want change root directory of website /var/www /home/vignesh/website-www. followed instructions

html code:

<a href="http://www.ajopaul.com/2010/05/01/ubuntu-apache2-change-default-documentroot-varwww/">here</a>

, i'm not entirely sure if worked, came piece of code looked error

code:

  * restarting web server apache2                                                 apache2: not reliably determine server's qualified domain name, using 127.0.1.1 servername  ... waiting apache2: not reliably determine server's qualified domain name, using 127.0.1.1 servername

it changed website attached, compared standard "it works!" webpage seeing prior root directory move attempt.

over-worrying here or not quite right?

oh , here edited default document

code:
