Thanks. Before I looked in the error_log file I modified httpd.conf by adding
a
user "www". Then I created a group "www" using the same number as its PID
(1062,1062).
When I restarted httpd everything was fine. When I looked in the httpd.conf
file the group id was invalid (-1), so I changed it to 1062 before I restarted
httpd.
Everything is now up and running. I want to thank you for your quick
responses.
I will definitely recommend to everyone I know to use Apache's httpd server.
I put myself on the announcement list for any updates, etc.
Thanks again.
