Thanks for the responses. It is working now , after adding the portnumber to ServerName directive in addition to Listen. Can you tell me why would one need to set the Virtual Host ? I am not trying to set up multiple websites / access pages. Just want to change the port of service. Aman : Yup , this is still listening on port 80. Directives changed Listen *:80 to Listen *:8000 Only , but the port doesn't change. Rick : Added the ServerName directive with the :8000 in addition to the Listen *:8000, and its working. But still hasn't set the Virtual Host Settings. Just to add on. RHL 4.0 Desktop -> Applications -> Sytem Tools -> Server Settings -> HTTP has an option to change the port number , but it doesn't reflect in the httpd.conf , other than at the Listen Directive . Restarting the service from the Desktop GUI reflects the changes. Interestingly , it reflects only at the Listen Directive in httpd.conf , so taking the cue, i change the port number at the Listen Directive and restart the service, it doesn't get reflected :-( which in all probability means, that there has to some modification made somewhere by the desktop , GUI applet. Thanks a lot. regards, Sujith On Wed, 2005-04-13 at 00:55 -0500, Aman Raheja wrote: > It is sufficient to change the Listen and VirtualHost directive and > restart apache for change to take effect. > .... > Listen 127.0.0.1:8080 > .... > <VirtualHost 127.0.0.1:8080> > .... > > What happening in your case? is your web server still responding to > default 80? > Can you show the relevant config directives to spot what you are doing > wrong. > Regards > > Aman Raheja > http://www.techquotes.com > > Sujith R. wrote: > > >Hi, > > > >Am having a problem with the Apache Web Server related to the Port Number change. > > > >Shouldn't changing the Listen Port Directive in the httpd.conf file be sufficient to change the port number where the webserver , > >will be listening for requests , followed by a restart of the service ? > > > >This simple approach is not working for a custom build binary , made from httpd-2.0.53 tar ball. > >Please help. > > > >regards, > >Sujith > > > > > > > >--------------------------------------------------------------------- > >The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project. > >See <URL:http://httpd.apache.org/userslist.html> for more info. > >To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscribe@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > > " from the digest: users-digest-unsubscribe@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > >For additional commands, e-mail: users-help@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > > > > > > > > > > > > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project. > See <URL:http://httpd.apache.org/userslist.html> for more info. > To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscribe@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > " from the digest: users-digest-unsubscribe@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > For additional commands, e-mail: users-help@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > --------------------------------------------------------------------- The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.
