contrary!

following in your httpd.conf file:
<Location /example-info>
- SetHandler example-handler

As an alternative, you can put the following into a .htaccess file and
then request the file "test.example" from that location:
- AddHandler example-handler .example
+ AddHandler example-hooks-handler .example
After reloading/restarting your server, you should be able to browse
