I am new at this. I just installed red hat 9, and tryed to get apache to run so that i can install webmin. Not having any success. I type in /etc/init.d/httpd status: says stopped. So then typed in /etc/init.d/httpd start: says not there or is empty. I'm not sure which dir. i should be in. Really need the help on getting apache to run.
Thank you Skyline, but it did not work. I am sorry but i still do not understand. when i typed in the ln -s /etc/rc.d/init.d/httpd /etc/rc.d/rcX.d/Syzhttpd it said ln does not exist. When i type this in /etc/init.d/httpd start this is what i get. Syntax error on line 116 of /etc/httpd/conf.d/ssl.conf: SSLCertificateFile: file '/etc/httpd/conf/ssl.crt/server.crt' does not exist or is empty. This is what i keep running into. my dir is [dave@localhost dave] is this where i need to be or do i need to be in another dir.
real sorry for this but could you tell me what the order number would be for yz or where would i look at for it.
this is for skyline
and thank you again
