Prob Installing Apache

[sazebac]

I'm trying to install Apache 2.0.45 on my Win 2000 system. I have Zone Alarm but disabled it, then try to install by double clicking the ssl.exe file. Then a DOS windows pops up that says "only one usage of each socket permit could not bind to addres 0 0 0 0 : 80 no list porsts available"
that window closes and another DOS window opens that says "sys cannot find file specified no installed service named apache2"
Then it says Apache has installed succesfully and there is the Apache Icon in my system tray, but then I open the icon it says there are no services running. Did a search on google for these errors but could not find much. Any help would be great.

ok.. where did u get ssl.exe from?

the last i saw the latest version of apache with ssl was
Apache_2.0.47-OpenSSL_0.9.7b-win32.zip
i got that from hunter.campbus.com

I had to "install" this over an existing apache installation.

your first step imho is to get apache running without ssl. When i did this a couple of months ago, (on win 2000) there were all sorts of issues, including the bind error you mentioned. I found a couple of tutorials that were slightly innaccurate, or missing a vital step, but got it running in the end. I wrote up a document that would probably help you.

At the time of the writing of this, there was no binary release of apache2 with SSL compiled-in, due to the US authorities limiting export of encryption software. See

http://www.apacheweek.com/features/ssl

If you are interested i can send the document to you.

Tracey you could create a FAQ based on that doc, it may help others in future.

Ladies and Gents,

I am a raw beginer trying to learn PHP. the book i'm going through recommends that I install Apache onto my system (W98Se) as the server.

I had PWS loaded and unistalled that as suggested and began loading the Apache software. Everything loads ok, but I cant get the test page up.

The book states to load

http://localhost

into the web browser (netscape) and I sould get a default page. But I get netscape's searcg engine instead. I tried to start apache from the dos window so I could see it load and it comes up with an error stating that it can't find the "C:\php\sapa\php4apache2.ddl" I have this loaded and it is in the directory that the program is looking for.

I can start the Apache monitor ok, but the start and stop buttons are ghosted. So at the moment, I'm stuck. I want to learn php, but it;s hopless if I cant open a papge to test what I'm doing.

Suggestions?

cheers

Your browser is getting no response from localhost so it's graciously doing a websearch for you. I find that annoying as hell, but apparently the developers think it's great.

I would recommend commenting the php stuff out of your apache config, get apache to serve up a static html page, then try to get php integrated.
