Have any of you newbies set up a webserver on your linux box yet? I've
tried reading the manuals for apache and it seems like I have it
installed just fine. Configuring it is another matter. I try to look
up http://localhost and it says "The connection was refused when
attempting to contact localhost." When I go to services I have httpd
checked off to start when I boot up. A weird thing though is that when
I try to stop that it says "httpd failed. The error was: Stopping httpd:
[FAILED]"
Here is how I have it set up through the G/etc/httpdUI on redhat 8.0
Main
server name: bushman.thebushmans.com (thebushmans.com is the domain
name that I bought)
Available addresses
All available addresses on port 80
12.254.239.10080
Virtual Hosts
name/default virtual host
Address/default virtual host
Server
lock file:/var/lock/httpd.lock
PID file:/var/run/httpd.pid
core dump directory:/etc/httpd
User:apache
] Group:apache/etc/httpd
Performance tuning is still set to defaults and I don't think anything
is wrong there.
Any ideas guys? I'm pretty lost as it is, but setting up a web server
seems like it should be one of the fun things to do on linux. Anyone
want to donate some time to the meek and lowly - and stupid. Serious,
I'd be willing to do an oil change, car wash or whatever if someone
would come over and help me out with this. Maybe it is just something
simple, but it doesn't seem like it.
Thanks for at least letting me vent...
