Where is that browser running ? on the same machine as Apache ?

If it is ...
Failed to Connect

Firefox can't establish a connection to the server at localhost.


The first thing is to see if apache is really running.
On the same machine as Apache, in a command window, enter

ps -ef | grep apache

You should see several lines showing the apache processes (at least 2).

If not, then it`s not running and we have to figure out why.

Otherwise, let's check that it is indeed listening on port 80 (the standard HTTP port) :
Enter "netstat -an | grep LISTEN"
You should see a line similar to (on one line) :
tcp6       0      0 :::80                   :::*                    LISTEN

If you don't, there is a problem.

In case of a problem, on your kind of system, the Apache logfile should be in /var/log/apache2.
You will find 2 logfiles there : an "access log" and an "error log".
The access log contains 1 line for each request that a browser makes to the server. The error log starts with a line each time you restart Apache, and after that it usually only shows when an error occurred.

Let us know how far you get with the above commands.
