Re: Welcome to the VCL page does not appear...
Yea, the /var/log/audit/audit.log command gave me a permission denied error. So would SELinux prevent me from checking logs even though it is disabled?

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 No, actually, you missed my point. I was referring to the period. It should be a slash. (e.g. vcl/index.php) Here's how it works. Look in your '/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf' for 'DocumentRoot'. If your 'DocumentRoot' = '/var/www/html' then the URL is 'https://your ip address/vcl/index.php If your 'DocumentRoot' = '/var/www/html/vcl' then the URL is 'https://your ip address/index.php' Note: You'll need to have mod_ssl installed to get the 'https'. Otherwise, just use 'http'. To help troubleshoot 1. try 'netstat -tan' and look for port 80 (http) and/or port 443 (https). tcp0 0 0.0.0.0:80 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN tcp0 0 0.0.0.0:443 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN 2. try 'iptables -L -n' and look forACCEPT tcp -- 0.0.0.0/0 0.0.0.0/0 state NEW tcp dpt:80 ACCEPT tcp -- 0.0.0.0/00.0.0.0/0 state NEW tcp dpt:443 (it could also be totally blank - which means it's not filtering anything) 3. check the logs for errors /var/log/httpd/error_log /var/log/httpd/access_log Hope this helps, __Jim On 3/29/2011 7:32 PM, Frento Burton wrote: Sorry left off the colon in the URL.

Re: Welcome to the VCL page does not appear...
Ok, I believe we're getting somewhere. I think the easiest way to report back my findings from all three of your suggestions is to simply copy and paste the output from each command. *After checking the httpd.conf file, I received; * Netrw Directory Listing(netrw v134) /etc/httpd/conf.d Sorted by name Sort sequence: [\/]$,\.h$,\.c$,\.cpp$,*,\.o$,\.obj$,\.info$,\.swp$,\.bak$,\~$ Quick Help: F1:help -:go up dir D:delete R:rename s:sort-by x:exec ../ README mod_dnssd.conf php.conf proxy_ajp.conf ssl.conf welcome.conf *After typing in the command netstat -tan, I received;* tcp0 0 :::443 :::* LIS tcp0 0 :::80 :::* LIS *After typing in the command iptables -L -n, I received; * Chain INPUT (policy ACCEPT) target prot opt source destination ACCEPT all -- 0.0.0.0/00.0.0.0/0 state RELATED,ESTABLISHED ACCEPT icmp -- 0.0.0.0/00.0.0.0/0 ACCEPT all -- 0.0.0.0/00.0.0.0/0 ACCEPT tcp -- 0.0.0.0/00.0.0.0/0 state NEW tcp dpt:443 ACCEPT tcp -- 0.0.0.0/00.0.0.0/0 state NEW tcp dpt:22 REJECT all -- 0.0.0.0/00.0.0.0/0 reject-with icmp-host-prohibited Chain FORWARD (policy ACCEPT) target prot opt source destination REJECT all -- 0.0.0.0/00.0.0.0/0 reject-with icmp-host-prohibited Chain OUTPUT (policy ACCEPT) target prot opt source destination Also, checking for error logs under httpd returned nothing. Thanks again for your suggestions James. Hopefully you can pinpoint the problem through one of these outputs.
Re: Welcome to the VCL page does not appear...
um, maybe the url should be https://ipaddress/vcl/index.php ? On Mar 29, 2011, at 5:38 PM, Frento Burton wrote: Yeah, I have already installed both of those packages. I download opera just to see if maybe it was an issue with the browser I was using (Modzilla Firefox) but to no avail. However, Opera actually gave an error message as oppose to just a blank page like Firefox. when proceeding past the initial VCL Welcome log in, Opera then redirects me to a an error page which displays The remote server or file is not found. Again, the URL is https//ipaddress/vcl.index.php
Re: Welcome to the VCL page does not appear...
Thanks for the suggestions James, I checked the conf.php file and it appears that all the values are correct. Luckily enough we have two test machines we're using to implement VCL. The other machine is running CentOS5 and it seems to be working fine. In comparison and contrasting the working machine and the machine that doesn't display the Welcome to VCL page, I noticed that our URL address slightly differed under page info. The working machine displays the address *https:// 'ipaddress'/vcl/index.php*. However, the machine that doesn't work displays the address *https://'ipaddress'/vcl/index.php?mode=selectauth* in the page info section. Do you think this might have something to do with the blank page error? Besides checking the Apache logs, I'm about out of possible solutions to the problem
Re: Welcome to the VCL page does not appear...
I often found that when I got the blank page it was because I forgot to restart the mysql or the vcld service. -Frento Burton fbur...@scs.howard.edu wrote: - To: vcl-user@incubator.apache.org From: Frento Burton fbur...@scs.howard.edu Date: 03/28/2011 04:35PM Cc: James Patrick Sigmon jpsig...@ncsu.edu Subject: Re: Welcome to the VCL page does not appear...

Re: Welcome to the VCL page does not appear...
Hey Frento, There a couple a possibilities that come to mind that you could check. One would be to double check your conf.php file for any incorrect values or typos. In particular, double check baseurl, script, cookiedomain, and homeurl. The other idea I have is to make sure that all of your php packages are installed. I've had a few installations where somehow I missed one and it cause errors like what you are describing. php-gd php-json (if your PHP version is 5.2, this is not required) php-mcrypt php-mysql php-openssl php-sysvsem php-xml php-xmlrpc php-ldap (if you will be using ldap authentication) Hope this helps, Patrick Sigmon On Mar 24, 2011, at 1:05 AM, Frento Burton wrote: Not sure if this is part of the problem but I don't see a referring URL from my index.php page when I view page details.
