Hello,

I've setup apache2.0 on my ultra5 box hoping to serve. The problem that i'm having is when i try to start up apache with the command:

/usr/local/apache2/bin/apachectl start but, i get this error:
httpd: Could not determine the server's fully qualified domain name, using 127.0
.0.1 for ServerName


Can someone help me?? Thanks

You might wanna go into the httpd.conf and mention the
Servername xyz
or as whatever you are setting it to.
and enter the corrosponding entry for xyz in /etc/hosts

Hope it helps!

FQDN is basically saying that it wants you to specify the internet IP address and domain name in your /etc/inet/hosts.

Also change this in your httpd.conf if necessary, as the above poster specified :)

There's also another thing with apache where it may fail.. you need to set the effective UID to nobody, which is UID 65534 (a) for security reasons, and (b) because a lot of builds put this as another number which Solaris doesn't recognise.
