Hi,
I'm a newby so forgive me if this is an absolute dumb question.
I just installed fedora core 8 (also tried 9 with same result)
with the webserver package enabled.
When I first start linux httpd is NOT running although I am in runlevel 3 and there is a Sxxhttpd in the rc3.d directory.
After starting httpd manually with /etc/rc.d/init.d/httpd start I get an [OK].
ps aux | grep http results in:
root 2695 0.1 1.0 27096 10560 ? Ss 16:09 0:01 /usr/sbin/httpd
apache 2697 0.0 0.5 27096 5328 ? S 16:09 0:00 /usr/sbin/httpd
apache 2698 0.0 0.5 27096 5328 ? S 16:09 0:00 /usr/sbin/httpd
apache 2699 0.0 0.5 27096 5328 ? S 16:09 0:00 /usr/sbin/httpd
apache 2700 0.0 0.5 27096 5328 ? S 16:09 0:00 /usr/sbin/httpd
apache 2701 0.0 0.5 27096 5328 ? S 16:09 0:00 /usr/sbin/httpd
apache 2702 0.0 0.5 27096 5328 ? S 16:09 0:00 /usr/sbin/httpd
apache 2703 0.0 0.5 27096 5328 ? S 16:09 0:00 /usr/sbin/httpd
apache 2704 0.0 0.5 27096 5328 ? S 16:09 0:00 /usr/sbin/httpd
If I do : netstat -tulpn | grep 80 I get:
tcp 0 0 10.0.1.80:80 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN 2695/httpd
I created in the web root (/var/www/html) a simple webpage:
<html><body>hi</body></html>
If I run lynx on the server itself with:
lynx localhost
I get:
Unable to connect to remote host
Also connecting from another computer does not work.
ponting a browser to <ipaddress> results in "Unable to reach host"
I can ping the server, I can ssh to the server.
So what am I missing?
Kind regards,
Werner

Hi,
May be firewall is blocking port 80, enter following to disable firewall for testing purpose:
Code:service iptables stop lynx localhost

Yesss. Thank you thank you thank you
That did it.
How could I have forgotten this.
Thank you very much.
My server is already behind a firewall so I completely disabled the firewall.
lynx localhost didn't work but from an external machine I do get a nice webpage.
Regards,
Werner
