[ug-bosug] how to setup apache?

[Madhan Kumar Balasubramanian]

Hi Sham,

Due to project webstack, apache can be out of the box config itself.

All you need to do is determine whether you want to run apache2.2 or 
apache v1.0.

for apache2.2, execute /usr/apache2/2.2/bin/apachectl start and it will 
get started.

To change the bind address, edit the /etc/apache2/2.2/httpd.conf & 
search for ServerName directive and give your hostname.

For apache1, you need to rename /etc/apache/httpd.conf-example to 
/etc/apache/httpd.conf and start the apache server using 
/usr/apache/bin/apachectl start.

Same procedure for changing servername directive.

To verify if the syntax of httpd.conf is correct, you can execute 
configtest:

/usr/apache/bin/apachectl configtest

HTH!

Best Regards,
Madhan Kumar
