The 404 would seem to be some kind of apache/cobbler/wsgi misconfiguration, but isn't what ultimately kills the install.

------------------------

In my case, I have a running DNS server with forward and reverse zones defined for the network bits that I am testing with cobbler. Cobbler doesn't manage DNS for me, I do all of that separately. It doesn't matter whether bind is on the cobbler server or not, as long as the host machines that cobbler and koan reside on point to it for name services, and as long as all the hosts you are interested in are configured in the forward and reverse zone files. And these hosts also need to point to the dns server you are using.

I also have the ServerName parameter in my /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf file set up with the hostname of my server (cobbler1.example.com). /etc/hosts is also set up properly, and so is the hostname of the server.

I think there is at least one file in /etc/httpd/conf.d that you have to review and uncomment some of the declarations so that cobbler and wsgi work.

That is all I really needed to do to get cobbler and httpd (apache) working together happily.

Check the error logs in /var/log/httpd and see what they are telling you. Fix the problems, restart httpd, and see if you 404 again.

Also, if you installed cobbler by downloading the code from git and doing

'make install'

did you also do

'make webtest'

I hope all this helps out.

Bob
