<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>After much googling and investigation, I finally
decided to reinstall my apache web server from scratch. Apparently, I had some
apache2 apps included in my original package that interferred with
PHP/APACHE (LAMP). As you could imagine, this was most
frustrating. However, when I reinstalled apache, my apache, mysql,
php configuratation is worked very well thank you. I did find some
references to problems such as mine which all seem to indicate some
kind of blocking was going on with my Apache host that prevented it from binding
to my localhost. </FONT></DIV>

more details. What is the path on the filesystem you're using? What is the

have you changed?<BR><BR>The Debian way (as far as I can tell) is to put your
websites under /srv. I've done this, I've also put websites under /var/www and
also created them in /home/sites (to mimic the old cobalts). Never had
problems like this. <BR>-- <BR>Matthew Nuzum<BR>newz2000 on freenode
