Hey guys I am trying to setup a web server on my spare linux box at home running fc6. Well actually the server is setup fine. I think. It seems sometimes I can get to the website and other times it times out. I have opened the correct ports on my router and firewall (and tried it with no firewall) and it still does the same thing. Also I can put in the ip address (cause im at work and the dynamic dns is blocked) and the text loads, but if i do the same thing right after it times out. Any help would be great.

Also, i installed joomla and it asks me to change

magic_quotes_gpc = off

to
magic_quotes_gpc = On

well in my php.ini file you see everything with ';' in front of it. So I can only assume that is a comment since all the remarks in the file have that infront of it.

I created a blank line and entered

magic_quotes_gpc = On

and it is still reporting it as off. How do I turn that on? When I make changes to php.ini do I have to restart the whole computer or just apache?

Thanks a lot,

nomb

If you make changes to php.ini you have to restart apache or you can reboot the computer. A good link for info about magic quotes is phpinfo

Thanks for replying I've been waiting all day.
I have looked there and they say to put:

magic_quotes_gpc = On

In the php.ini file. Which I did but Joomla still says it isn't on.

What can I do?

I figured it out in /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf you have to change

AllowOveride None
to
AllowOveride All

Then cp htaccess.txt to .htaccess
and put
magic_quotes... On
at the bottom of the file.

Restart apache. Bingo!
