I don't own a mac, but try a couple of things: $ locate apache $ locate httpd See if either of those returns an executable. Finally, try $ ps | grep httpd $ ps | grep apache I don't know whether the ps command translates directly to Mac, but it might be worth a try. If locate doesn't pick anything up, try updating or initializing the database - probably using updatedb: $ updatedb or $ updatedb --localpaths='/' On 7/30/06, David Blomstrom <david_blomstrom@xxxxxxxxx> wrote:
If I type % sudo pico /etc/httpd/httpd.conf into Apple's Terminal, then press ENTER and get the following response: -bash: fg: %: no such job ...does that mean Apache isn't installed on my MacBook Pro after all? I'm thinking of following the same route I took on my PC and just installing the software bundled from Apache Friends/XAMPP. But if I install XAMPP, and it turns out that Apache or PHP was already installed on my computer aftet all, would that create problems, or would the new installs simply over-write my current programs, whether they're the same upgrade versions or not? Also, have any of you used XAMPP's Mac version? I see it's still in beta. Thanks. ________________________________ Groups are talking. We´re listening. Check out the handy changes to Yahoo! Groups.
