Hi there
My Apache was compilled by hand and the specific actions of the file "mappingwidgets.conf" just worked (was read) after I added the following line at my httpd.conf:
Include [path-to/]mappingwidgets.conf

True, this is an alternative to the symbolic link. As long as the file is included, it is ok.
