Mandrake and Apache
 

Hi

I have blown the dust off an old P200 and thought it might do as a web/ftp server. I have installed MDK 9.1 with almost everything , setup networking and it pings allright. I can even reach the server with http://server-ip and https://server-ip:10000 for administration

But when I try to setup Apache in webmin it says


The Apache server executable /usr/sbin/httpd does not exist. If you have Apache installed, adjust the module configuration to use the correct path.

So my question is: where are the Apache files on a Mandrake system?
Someone has suggested that Apache might not be installed, but it does not make sense, how should I be able to reach the server with http://server-ip and https://server-ip:10000 without a webserver installed ?

Thanks

Try locating the httpd command:

find / -name httpd

locate httpd

And then you can also look for the httpd.conf file on your system with the same commands, substituting httpd with httpd.conf

Also when your accessing thru port 10000, that's webmin running, not apache. They have nothing to do with one another.

Also, make sure apache is even installed:

rpm -qa | grep apache

or

rpm -qa | grep httpd

This commando gave :

rpm -qa | grep apache

apache2-modules-2.0.44-11mdk
apache2-mod_perl-2.0.44_1.99-08-3mdk

and so on and so on.....

So it seems that apache is installed

It is probably installed in another location. Personally I would just change the config by hand. What are you trying to configure?

if you have the latest version of apache ( ver2 ) you may find that a couple of needed files have a *2* added to the name. So instead of httpd, its httpd2. They are still in the same place, just need to add the 2. Start webmin and take care of each file one by one.
