Yes, you have not configured the server's domain name in apache's config file, or you have some other weirdness going about your domain name (have you set it at all?), so Apache can't figure it out and just uses the loopback ip.
As b0uncer already said, Apache couldn't determine your domain name so it's using the localhost as its fallback. You can either set up your box so it has a hostname/domain or configure the ServerName directive in your httpd.conf file.

By the way, i'm listening to different port than 80.
Hope this helps you help me, because, i'm absolutely lost.
I've just taken a look at your output and some of the differences between version 1.3 and 2x. Are u using 2.0 or 2.2?
From your ps -ef output, you do not have the apache processes running. You might want to kill 5436 if it's still running....
Take a closer look at these:
Code:
# PidFile: The file in which the server should record its process
# identification number when it starts.
# U might want to delete this because of httpd (pid #5109) already running
PidFile /var/run/apache2.pid
User www-data
Group www-data
# Global error log.
ErrorLog /var/log/apache2/error.log
# Include all the user configurations:
Include /etc/apache2/httpd.conf
# Include ports listing
Include /etc/apache2/ports.conf
I looked in the default apache2 install and there in the httpd.conf is:
# If your host doesn't have a registered DNS name, enter its IP address here.
# You will have to access it by its address anyway, and this will make
# redirections work in a sensible way.
#
#ServerName www.example.com:80
I don't have a apache2.confd, but that shouldn't matter... (My version is 2.0 and I'm guessing you are 2.2)
I think you should still be able to add
ServerName whatever.com:xxx
to either config file...
where xxx is the port number
Then be sure to add whatever.com to your hosts file /etc/hosts
Stop apache
Restart
Let me know.
I'll see if I can get to version 2.2
Is there any reason you don't want to use 1.3 to start ?
Just wondering
Hope this helps...
** Note - I just realized this is a Ububtu posting. I was thinking you were on FC5. I'll be in Ubuntu in a minute...
I'll double check the hosts file location for you... geesh...
# cd conf
edit httpd.conf
---------------------
# If your host doesn't have a registered DNS name, enter its IP address here.
#
#ServerName www.example.com:80
ServerName gandalf.athlone.com:80

Rep:
Alar, I have a question, where you put
"I think you should still be able to add
ServerName whatever.com:xxx
to either config file...
where xxx is the port number"
Are you suggesting that without purchasing a domain name I can put my site online? By the way I do have 2.0 as well.
Thanks for the help, I'm going to check out your posts, and hopefully extract something from your help to aid myself.
No no the domain name is another issue.
But it doesn't mean you have to spend money.
We'll get to that later.
On your internal network. One machine two, three four.
The easy way is hosts file
Code:
127.0.0.1 localhost localhost
# The following lines are desirable for IPv6 capable hosts
::1 ip6-localhost ip6-loopback
fe00::0 ip6-localnet
ff00::0 ip6-mcastprefix
ff02::1 ip6-allnodes
ff02::2 ip6-allrouters
ff02::3 ip6-allhosts
# These lines deserve a note too
192.168.0.4 gandalf.athlone.com gandalf
192.168.0.2 frodo.athlone.com frodo
athlone.com is my internal domain
Not registered.
I do have a registered external domain too. But I can't see it from here: athlone.com
I have a router to figure out the details- but that is beyond the scope of your original question.
But in answer to where your mind is wandering. Yes you will be able to put your apache on the web. And no. If it's from your home box. It doesn't have to cost money.
