Re: [users@httpd] Problems installing Apache

I will try these things on Monday when I get back to the office. Didn't 

think to try it from init 3. This is the first time I'm installing Apache 

on this machine, everything else went fairly smooth. Especially since this 

is my first Debian install. Thanks for the assist...

Hi,

I am trying to install Apache on a Debian 3.0 system. I am using "apt-get 

install apache". Every time I do this, the machine totally locks up and 

is unresponsive. This includes trying to close X or shift to a different 

virtual server. The machine is completely locked. The last commands 

displayed are:

LoadModule apache_ssl_module /usr/lib/apache/1.3/libssl.so
# LoadModule allowdev_module /usr/lib/apache/1.3/mod_allowdev.so
# LoadModule eaccess_module /usr/lib/apache/1.3/mod_eaccess.so
# LoadModule php4_module /usr/lib/apache/1.3/libphp4.so
# LoadModule roaming_module /usr/lib/apache/1.3/mod_roaming.so
Pondering.

I am stuck, as I am new to installing Apache, and have no idea where to 

look to troubleshoot this. Thanks for any assistance.

I'm not quite familiar with those last commands displayed, they look like 

items that should be in httpd.conf.

Try booting to init 3, and installing that way - no X, no sound, no 

anything, just pure, sexy, command-line time, baby.  This will just help 

you rule out any possibility of something conflicting with the install 

while it's running.

Have you ever encountered this problem before on this machine?  Does 

/var/log/messages say anything neat?

Thanks
