Re: Where does apache look for the domain name?

[Greg <gregborbonus@xxxxxxxxx>]

It may also be in apache2.conf

If you find the file /etc/apache2/apache2.conf, just run:

echo 'ServerName YOUR_SERVERS_FQDN' >> /etc/apache2/apache2.conf

Replace YOUR_SERVERS_FQDN with the actual hostname of the server that RESOLVES. It's important that if you set it to server.domain.com, then server.domain.com should point to the correct ip of your server.

From the looks of it, your servers hostname is knute5.frazmtn.com and it resolves properly.

IF that is the case AND /etc/apache2/apache2.conf is the correct config file, just run:
echo 'ServerName knute5.frazmtn.com' >> /etc/apache2/apache2.conf 

Do not run both commands or the same command twice, you only want 1 entry for the servers ServerName.

Thank you,

Got this in my log:

/etc/cron.daily/logrotate:
apache2: Could not reliably determine the server's fully qualified domain name, using 216.240.58.141 for ServerName

Where does apache look for the domain name?

Thanks,
