Hi All, I'm following the installation instruction for sql-ledger and have come to a stop. I'm using Redhat 7.1 for my distro and I just pull down Sql-ledger 1.6.7 and untar the package. I change the values in my Apache's httpd.conf per instruction from sql-ledger. I then start the web server and check the file httpd.pid in my log file to verify the process id. I then started Netscape and keyed in "http:// localhost/sql-ledger/admin.pl" I get the following error dialog message Netscape is unable to locate the server localhost Can someone give me a hand in getting this setup? Thanks. Wayne |

Hi Andrew, Thanks for your reply. When I turn off the smartbrowsing and key in the URL I get the error- Not Found The requested URL /sql-ledger/admin.pl was not found on this server Apache/1.3.4 Server at www.localhost.com Wayne Andrew Sharp wrote: > wayne wrote: > > > > Hi All, > > I'm following the installation instruction for sql-ledger and > > have come to a stop.

Hi Keld, When I look in my log file httpd.pid I find the process ID that matches the output from the command ps -ef | grep httpd. So, I assume that Apache is running. Thanks. Wayne P.S. I bought another book on Apach and I think my problem might be-in how I setup httpd.conf. Would the list mine if I ask some questions on Apache?

Hi, If this message is not appropriate to the group let know. If anyone can point me to a group that deals with questions about apache I will be grateful. I thought I had my problem solved, but I don't. When I key in the url, http://localhost/sql-ledger/admin.pl, I still get the rror "Netscape is unable to locate the server localhost". In my httpd.conf I have the directive "ServerName localhost". I restarted my server and still get the same error. By-the-way, my httpd.conf file is stock except for the changes I made for sql-ledger.

Evidently there's no entry for localhost in your /etc/hosts file. You need to create one (pointing to 127.0.0.1). Do "man hosts" for an example.

Next step is to see if your system has web access (port 80) on localhost, then. telnet localhost 80 When you use Netscape and a "dot-less" domainname like "localhost" is refused access, Netscape tries www.domainname.com instead, which is why you are sent on to another site. Use something like telnet or lynx for testing... - Jonas -- Jonas Smedegaard <jo...@jo...> http://dr.jones.dk/~jonas/ +45 40843136 Spiff ApS (aka. IT-guide dr.

Hi Jonas, Maybe I'm getting somewhere now. When I enter "telenet localhost 80" I get Trying 127.0.0.1... telnet: Unable to connect to remote host: connection refused > When you use Netscape and a "dot-less" domainname like "localhost" is > refused access, Netscape tries www.domainname.com instead, which is why > you are sent on to another site. Use something like telnet or lynx for > testing... Jonas, can you tell me where you got this bit of info? Wayne |
