I made the installation from scratch again
here's what i have in the etc directory: a file named path
here are it's contents :
PATH="/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:$PATH"
USER="`id -un`"
# Set up USER's home directory
if [ -z "$HOME" ]; then
HOME="/home/$USER"
fi
if [ ! -d "$HOME" ]; then
mkdir -p "$HOME"
fi
export HOME USER
for i in /etc/profile.d/*.sh ; do
if [ -f $i ]; then
. $i
fi
done
export MAKE_MODE=unix
export PS1='\[\033]0;\w\007
\033[32m\]\u@\h \[\033[33m\w\033[0m\]
$ '
cd "$HOME"
Running sh is succesfull
But apache still doesn't work
does it work on ur machine ??
Oh and i misspelled , of course it was not apache.exe but httpd.exe ;-)
what changes should i aplly to this file so that an httpd command won't
result in an unknown command error message ??
I get the same error with the daemon inetd command
maybe the problems are linked
Thanks for ur help
