we have a network, but ill be using apache on basically stand alone mode. what must i put in the domain field? currently i entered our domain. on the server name i entered my computer name.

after the installation. i tested my install by entering http://localhost in my browser. it's not getting me anywhere. this is my first time with apache.

any help will be appreciated.

try entering in your machine name... this is my machine name:

http://benkillin/

or you can use your IP:

http://192.168.0.2/

hope this helps!

I am having the same problem on Windows XP.

The only thing I can think of as the problem is the DNS is not seeing my server. I'm assuming there is some sort of local DNS since the loopback shouldn't even go outside my computer... as it doesn't.

Thus, I would need to configure this local DNS. Is this the case, and if so how can I configure this to recognize my Server as being bound to my ip, and therefore the loopback.

This is Apache2, on WinXP w/ SP1

THANKS!

I just use the IP address of the machine and I get it.

I usually do too.

I've set up apache easily on a couple other machines as well as on Linux.

For some reason on my main machine on XP I can't for the life of me get it to see Apache.

NOTE: I'M BEHIND A SMALL SWITCH from best buy, it assigns each comp a funny ip for its own use. I am also behind a massive subnet maze for a T1 in my apt bldg. But games such as Diablo 2 and every other game i play will MP with the IP I am using now to try and access Apache. Maybe this will shed light :confused:

Hah, fixed it.

Had to revert to an old version AND Listen to a specific addy and port on my machine. The new version and default listen didn't do the job for some reason.

Integrating PHP and MySQL was a relative snap and I'm on a role
