[subject changed for easy searching] No, there's nothing wrong when Apache simply says 'It Worked!'. You have installed Apache. The old, lengthy message confused many end users/customers of the web sites which would upgrade from time to time, and sent them running to the foundation with a post "HELP! Apache took over my computer!" The new message is equally confusing to end users/customers of those web sites, but at least the customer isn't running here for help. Perhaps the new message is a little too terse, but we will never return to reporting that "Apache was successfully installed" because that's what sent users running to us. Bill Mary Anderson wrote:
Hi all, I just installed apache2.2.0 from source code on my red hat linux system. Everything seemed to be ok. I started apachectl and have an httpd running on the system. But, according to 'Apache Essentials' when I point my browser at http://localhost/ I should get a screen from apache with an apache logo and a statement saying not to call them about configuration problems. I don't. I get a screen saying 'It works!'. Is something wrongwith my installation? I did not check the signature on the source code. And I can't find the html scripts for either screen on my system.
