problem while entering local host (on apache)
i've installed apache from source files. it has installed with no problems. i've started the service, but when i try to enter http://localhost , i'm prompted a message that the connection was refused. i've turned off the firewall, but i still get the same message. what should i do?!

Check that it is listening and that the firewall is disabled. Post the output of:
netstat -nlp iptables -nL |
well i get the following output:

The netstat output shows nothing about a service listening on port 80 (http). How did you start apache? With "apachectl start"? Did you get any errors when you started it?
|
i found the error. server started on port 8080 not 80 as i (and the browser) have expected. but i' wondering why?
|
Then you must have started it as a user. Only root can start services on ports below 1024. Therefore apache defautls to 8080 if you arn't root.
|
well to be honest i started it as root. if i try to start it as normal user server doesn't starts at all! in addition in httpd.conf port was set to 8080
|
Just change the port to 80 in httpd.conf, restart apache and you should be fine.
|
well i did so :D
