I emerged apache and went into my konsole and type in /etc/init.d/apache2 start then it gave me this message
Quote:
Starting apache2...
apache2: Could not determine the server's fully qualified domain name, using 127.0.0.1 for ServerName
so I went into my browser after and typed in http://localhost but all of a sudden it can't connect i also tried 127.0.0.1 but still nothing, is there something wrong? I'm new to this apache on linux thing, so much help is needed.

This is the wrong forum :wink:

I had the excact same problem, you have to change a line in /etc/apache2/conf/apache2.conf to:
Code:
ServerName <ENTER NAME HERE>


It should be on line 8. I just use "fileserver", but you can use whatever you want.
