Problem with Apache Installation on RedHat 9
 

I installed Web server from the Installation CD from RH9. all went well i even updated the packages after the installation. but when i restarted the computer the httpd wont start and its posting this error message...

httpd failed. The error was: Stopping httpd: [FAILED]
Starting httpd: httpd: Could not determine the server's
fully qualified domain name, using XXX.XX.XXX.XXX for ServerName
(98)Address already in use: make_sock: could not bind to
address 0.0.0.0:80
no listening sockets available, shutting down
[FAILED]


HELP!!!!!

edit your httpd.conf and look for the directive "ServerName".

just put your IP or server name in this directive.
ServerName yourservername

hope it will work.

Cheers.

Thanks... doing this for half a day already...
 

Thanks for the Reply...

I'm sorry i did not browse all the previous discussions, i saw the solution. Another service was using port 80, i accidentaly started TUX threaded kernel-based http server service.

I disabled that and Apache is nor running... :)

Thanks Again!
