Re: can't start apache

2003-09-17 Thread Pete Renshaw
edit your /etc/hosts to look something like this

127.0.0.1  localhost.myname.com localhost
192.168.1.10   anyname.myname.com anyname
192.168.1.5anyname.myname.com.


or try running sysinstall or /stand/sysinstall and reconfig your network 
card.

restart the system

 Hi,
 I just installed freeBSD for the first time and now I'm trying to 
 get apache running. When running apachectl start I get the 
 following error:
 
 Could not determine the server's fully qualified domain name, using 
 127.0.0.1 for Servername httpd not running, trying to start
 (13) Permission denied: make_sock: Could not bind to address [::]:80 
 no listening sockets available, shutting down Unable to open logs
 
 When running sudo apachectl start I only get this:
 
 Could not determine the server's fully qualified domain name, using 
 127.0.0.1 for Servername
 
 Any help or ideas would be apprecciated, thanks,
 Holger

Re: Pentium 120 reboots after loading mfsroot floppy

  I was hoping to try out FreeBSD on an old machine I have been given

  reboots.
 
  What might cause this problem?

I just had the same problem installing 5.1 on an intel D865GL motherboard with
2.4 celeron, two maxtor 120gb 133 hard drives with 133 adapter, 512 ecc
ram(should be non-ecc I think).  The floppy's didn't seem to have the bus
driver I needed so I used the 5.1 CD to set up.  User directories are on
separate drive.  I have had no problems for five days now.

Re: New Users Learning FreeBSD

2004-03-06 Thread Pete Renshaw
Hello,

Sorry, don't have all of the original message...

I think the newbie you are helping would at first find mandrake more 
informative.  It would let them see all the different parts of a unix type 
OS.  Perhaps a store bought box containing useful books for them.  Then maybe 
a year from now, you can install freebsd.  That way you won't be turned off 
yourself by answering so many little questions.  If it turns out they don't 
like it.  Their will be less time lost...

Pete

new DIM version coming out soon(php  mysql instant messenger)
http://dim.whorules.com  could use a little support...:)

 I am curious what some newbies experiences were with FreeBSD who 
 have have no unix experience before.  I have someone that I might be 
 setting up a unix workstation of some kind for and I'm debating 
 whether I should use FreeBSD or some Linux distro like mandrake or 
 debian.  I will be there most of the time to help if needed as this 
 is for work and will not be his home desktop, at least not yet.  He 
 only have some experience with using dos and windoze, but he does 
 have some technical background with computers.

Re: phpbb and phorum -- clear|empty|(white) screen during install

2003-11-29 Thread Pete Renshaw
As I recall, you have to delete install and upgrade files.

A link I found.

 I'm stumped.
 
   After I upgraded phpbb (from 2.0.4 to 2.0.6), I get an
   empty, white screen.  --I re-installed everything, including
   dependencies before deciding t try phorum.
 
   Only the first two 'Install' pages of Phorum work.  I've
   set up both mysql and pgsql and follow Dan Langille's
   tutorial but the last setup pages are void/empty.
   (v. 3.4.4)
 
   Anybody know where I'm messing up? Clues to debug?
   Anything??

Re: Upgrading

2003-12-11 Thread Pete Renshaw
If it is your second buildworld you have to do something like this 
# cd /usr/obj 
# chflags -R noschg * 
# rm -rf * 
 
Or the build may fail. 
See 
http://www.FreeBSD.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/makeworld.html

Re: Question about ports... [postnuke]

2003-12-11 Thread Pete Renshaw
Did you try
make install FORCE_PKG_REGISTER=yes clean

See
http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=portsapropos=0sektion=0manpath=FreeBSD+5.1-RELEASE+and+Portsformat=html

Many people don't know to use the =yes for FORCE_PKG_REGISTER.

After you get Postnuke installed you may have to make these changes below.

 Using FreeBSD 5.1 and PHP 4.3 I had to delete the  from: setlocale
(LC_TIME, locale); To make it look like: setlocale (LC_TIME,
en_US.ISO_8859-1); and also replace setlocale (try man setlocale info)
From mainfile.php line 565
