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. --------------------------------------------------------------------- The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.
