Hullo,

Open up a consol, type su and enter root pasword. Then type:

service httpd start

 

I sugest you also install Webmin to manage and configure your servers. So Open up a consol, type su and enter root pasword. Then type:

urpmi webmin

Then to access webmin, type in your browser: http://127.0.0.1:10000/

 

Check out http://www.apache.org/

i tried to do what you suggested but when i type "service httpd start" i get this : Re-creating /etc/httpd/extramodules

 

and after istalling webmin, when i type http://127.0.0.1:1000, i get this error message :

"An error occurred while loading http://127.0.0.1:10000/:

Could not connect to host 127.0.0.1 (port 10000)"

Sorry, start webmin first. You can do this from the MDK control centre or from a consol as root:

service webmin start

Or

/etc/rc.d/init.d/webmin start

Then type in browser http://127.0.0.1:10000

I thought mandrake by default set it up as secure with https://localhost:10000?

It should do but it doesn't always happen. If it isn't running secure, but webmin is installed then typing http will just bring a page saying..."running secure try https" blablabla. But neither will work if webmin isn't running.

when i get on that specific page where there is a list of items, like webadmin or useradmin, and then i click on useradmin, it tells me that useradmin is not installed or not configured and it tells me to type urpmi useradmin.

 

When i type this command line, it tells me that the package is not found.

You don't really need usermin. (not useradmin) You can do all you require without it.

I take it you found the server menu with apache, Bind sendmail etc? With regard to apache, you will need to allow access through your firewall if you have one set up.

The apache web site contains all the info you need on the many different configurations available.

I have never used apache with windoze, so i have no idea how it works there.

How far have you got? Is apache now running? do you get the welcome screen when you type :

http://127.0.0.1/

The apache config file (httpd.conf) contains several tips and sugestions as to possible configurations, have a look at it and see if you want to change anything. For example, the default directory to serve up your web pages is in /var/www/html but you can change it to whatever dir you choose. The default port will be port 80 but you can change it to whatever you want. Try putting your own index.html page in /var/www/html and test it out. Then go from there.

i have setup files in the specific folder that you specified and when i type http://localhost/photoworks (photoworks is the name of the folder where i put my website files) it works.

 

Now what settings do i have to change for this website to be available from the ouside.

 

my current ip address is 82.0.59.93 so i thought that by entering http://82.0.59.93 i would be able to access my website from the outside. unfortunately it does not work.

 

There must be something that i am missing, but i do not know what.
