Hi, I have apache2 installed on this suse 9.1 box (Yast tells me all sorts of apache2 packages are there). How can I start the server? Running httpd gives me "command not found". In a browser http://seven or http://192.168.0.7 or http://localhost all give "the connection was refused when attempting to contact seven". None of this is a surprise given the server isn't started.
Looked so simple when Steve demonstrated it recently. Googling produces so much info on apache tutorials, and I have dozens of apache files and directories all over the place that I am overwhelmed by the whole thing and hope someone can point me in the right direction.
Cheers, Roger
Logged in as root in a command box...
cd /etc/init.d ls -l apa*
There should be a file apache2 there. If not, look for httpd.
to start the web server,
./apache2 start
You should then get response to http://localhost form your browser.
hth,
Steve
