A work-around is to copy all .exe files from src/* to /usr/local/apache/bin. BTW, any other files _will_ be copied to their corresponding default installation directories. > When I try to run > > /usr/local/apache/bin/apachectl start > > I initially get an error: > > /usr/local/apche/bin/apachectl: /usr/local/apache/bin/httpd: No such file or directory > /usr/local/apache/bin/apachectl start: httpd could not be started That's why /usr/local/apache/bin/httpd[.exe] is not present to the event time. > I found httpd.exe still in my src directory from the build and copied over to > /usr/local/apache/bin, but then I get: > > httpd: bad user name nobody > > I see from the comments in httpd.conf that this may need to be changed, so I > change the user to an Administrator on my machine. Yes, you need to change that. Apache checks if the users you define in httpd.conf are existing on the system, and if you don't have them in /etc/passwd they are supposed to be "bad users". You may comment the two lines out if you don't mind about extra security issues. > I attempt to start again, and it says that it starts, but I get: > > [date] [alert] httpd: Could not determine the server's fully qualified domain name, using 127.0.0.1 for ServerName > /usr/local/apache/bin/apachectl start: httpd started > > And, it does seem to be running, but I can't connect to it. After the above error statement it should not be running. You will have to define the ServerName within httpd.conf. Set it to localhost or to an FQDN (www.somewhat.com) if the DNS entry is mapped for it. > When I'm doing this testing, I don't have any network interfaces running.
