RE: RC1 installation report

It looks like mod_ssl is preventing apache from stsrting. Thant must be why
the init script doestn't shut it down, because it never started.
Best luck to you

  All I do is select the Web/FTP software group as seen here:
http://www.linux-mandrake.com/en/demos/PPC/Test/Install/Reco/pages/reco10.ht

  Then from the desktop, try to access 127.0.0.1 in a web browser:
http://www.linux-mandrake.com/en/demos/Demo/Mandrake8.0/QuickLook/pages/feat
ures18.php3

  If the browser displays an error message such as Could not connect to
host, try uninstalling mod_ssl; then see if 127.0.0.1 displays Apache's
default page.

  Thank you in advance for any help.


 I also don't see the long startup delay.

Here is apachectl restart with mod_ssl installed:

[root@localhost root]# apachectl restart
Shutting down httpd-perl:   [  OK  ]
Starting httpd-perl:[  OK  ]
Starting httpd: [  OK  ]
[  OK  ]
[  OK  ]

  Those last two blank lines are where the delay is happening. And it's
missing the step Shutting down httpd.

Here is apachectl restart with the mod_ssl package removed:

[root@localhost root]# apachectl restart
Shutting down httpd-perl:   [  OK  ]
Shutting down httpd:[  OK  ]
Starting httpd-perl:[  OK  ]
Starting httpd: [  OK  ]
[root@localhost root]#



Bye,

Stew,

Yep - I'll try this.  But it'll have to wait until this 
afternoon/evening or tomorrow.  Got some things on my plate that will 
keep me away from my computers for most of the day.

The times I've installed mod_ssl from the command line, a certificate is
generated post install. 

I just tried it agin here using konqueror instead of links and 127.0.0.1
instead of localhost and it still worked for both http and https.  This is
with the pending security update for apache/php.

Can you verify the following in /etc/http/conf/ssl/mod_ssl.conf:

#   Semaphore:
#   Configure the path to the mutual explusion semaphore the  
#   SSL engine uses internally for inter-process synchronization.
SSLMutex  file:logs/ssl_mutex

It should not say sem, as that does not seem to work for PPC. I just
uninstall all that stuff and went back to the distributed versions and
my patch to change the above does not seem to happen.  Looking at the spec
again, it looks like I need the change in 2 places - 1 for an upgrade, and
one for a clean install. Sorry about that.  Anyway, changing the above
line should work, although I think Phil tried that before and still had
issues. Brice can you try that?

Hi Brice,

 I get the same behaviour.  Might this be because no certificate is

 after.  I do run a  web design/production company, so I should know

  Thank you for the confirmation; I thought I was overlooking something 
simple. Unfortunately I don't know enough about Apache to offer many 
troubleshooting tips, but thanks again for the feedback.


See ya'
