Hi Varuna To start apache: In your web browser type http://localhost or type 127.0.0.1 if you see the apache web page then it's working. if not then in a terminal type sudo /etc/init.d/httpd restart it will ask for your password then will run the apache restart. If successful you will see: Stopping httpd: [ OK ] Starting httpd: [ OK ] If unsuccessful it will give an error message which may mean there is a fault in the config file. regards Roger On Wed, 2011-04-13 at 08:38 +0530, Varuna Seneviratna wrote: > When I give the command > > yum info httpd > > The Output is: > > Loaded plugins: langpacks, presto, refresh-packagekit > Adding en_GB to language list > Installed Packages > Name : httpd > Arch : i686 > Version : 2.2.17 > Release : 1.fc14 > Size : 2.8 M > Repo : installed > From repo : updates > Summary : Apache HTTP Server > URL : http://httpd.apache.org/ > License : ASL 2.0 > Description : The Apache HTTP Server is a powerful, efficient, and extensible > : web server. > > > Does this mean that HTTP Server is already installed on my system and > if it is How do I start it and Access it as local host > > Varuna > > On 13 April 2011 08:26, Richard Shaw <hobbes1069@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > > On Tue, Apr 12, 2011 at 9:53 PM, Varuna Seneviratna > > <varunaseneviratna@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > >> How to install Apache web server in Fedora 14?
