Hi.

I am trying to install Apache on my Red Hat AS 2.1.
I have downloaded the tar file and did the configure..make ..make
install..
It's fine until then.
But, when I tried to start the apache server using
/usr/local/apache2/bin/httpd start (or)
/usr/local/apache2/bin/apachectl start ,

its giving the following error:

[r...@localhost bin]# apachectl start

httpd: Could not determine the server's fully qualified domain name,
using 127.0.0.1 for ServerName

how can I configure the domain name?

Then I tried accessing the server by typing

http://localhost/ on my firefox.Nothing is showing up.what is to be
done?

Thanks
Dheeraj.

This is just a warning, is telling you that the server will use 127.0.0.1
as servername, change the servername directive in your httpd.conf

Be sure that a ping to localhost is responded by your machine and the
loopback interface is up and running.
