Re: Problem in configuring two httpd services on one machine with two IPs (Apache Users)

Thanks for the revert.

But we would need to have two instances of httpd, since this server,with 2 IPs, is going to mimic two of our production servers.

Can we setup another httpd without running the install?

Thinking on similar lines, I copied the /etc/httpd folder as /etc/httpd1.

Also I made a copy of /etc/init.d/httpd, /etc/sysconfig/httpd and /var/lock/subsys/httpd as httpd1

When I try "service httpd1 start", I get following error message:

(98)Address already in use: make_sock: could not bind to address xxx.xxx.xx.xx:80

no listening sockets available, shutting down

Thanks,

Nish.

You only need 1 installation, and only have to start httpd once
the vhost config, set for the different ip addresses..
httpd will handle multiple ip addresses from one instance with no problems.
