PQ74022: Need to locate the plugin config file outside of the repository

APAR status
Closed as program error.

Error description
The path to the IBM HTTP Server plugin file (plugin-cfg.xml)
is incorrectly specified in the httpd.conf file when installing
the WebSphere Application Server along with IHS and the plugin.
This results in the problem while accessing IHS from the
browser. IHS will be started and stopped fine, but when
invoking the IHS from browser,  using 
http://<hostname>,
it won't serve the default IHS page.
The way around this problem is to manually go in and change
the httpd.conf file to have it point to the correct path of
the plugin-cfg.xml.
