Can't configure HTTPD

bartalamu · 07-18-2008, 04:34 AM

The problem is that i have to configure httpd to work with new IP
When i changed IP of the host, httpd continue to link to old IP. When i try to edit file /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf with VI it didn't give posibility to save. See output also

root@ugs1a conf]# chmod 777 httpd.conf
chmod: changing permissions of `httpd.conf': Operation not permitted

[root@ugs1a conf]# httpd -f root/new.httpd
httpd: could not open document config file /etc/httpd/root/new.httpd

You need to change the IP number in httpd.conf and also in any IP-based virtual hosts either in httpd.conf or files that are included by httpd.conf.
It seems that you tried to do that, but failed to over-write/save the file and the changes.

If root is not able to modify a file, then the filesystem might be mounted as read-only.

I don't see why you ant to change file permissions on a file to 777 when accessing that file as root anyway.
