Subject: RE: [users@httpd] problem with distant vs. local acces with apache 2

Are you typing in the IP of the machine in order to access the page at a
distance, such as http://xx.xx.xx.xx/index.html?  Is it a static IP
being used?

Since you don't have a domain you will have to access it via an IP
address as shown above.

Hope this helps,

Michael

Subject: [users@httpd] problem with distant vs. local acces with apache
2

hi everybody,

I encounter a problem that a search on google/groups/mailing list 
archive cannot solve. I have seen a few somehow similar posts (so my 
problem might not be completely unique) but no usefull solutions.

I've Apache 2.0.48 set up on a Mandrake Linux 10.0 (installed with rpms:

apache2-2.0.48-6mdk.rpm). All the options are the default ones.

I launch the server as root by typing:
 > httpd2

Opening a browser on my machine I can see the content of /var/www/html/ 
(my DocumentRoot). I can either see the default page or any index.html 
page I put there (in fact I'm mounting virtually my web site directory 
in /var/www/html by:
 > mount --bind /home/me/mywebsite/ /var/www/html/ ).

I can see the page either under the adress:
http://localhost/
of the adress:
http://my.ip.addr.ess/

The only warning I'm receiving when I launch httpd2 is:
 > httpd2: Could not determine the server's fully qualified domain name,

using ##.##.##.### for ServerName
where the numbers are my ip adress. which is predictable as I haven't 
set the ServerName in httpd2.conf. I'm installing this server on my 
personal computer at home and therefore, I don't have a domain name as I

would in an organisation. But I do not think this is a problem (maybe my

mistake is there...)

Therfore LOCALLY everything seems to be working fine.

Nevertheless when I try to see the web site from a DISTANT computer I 
receive a blank page and an error message saying that the browser cannot

connect to the page. I don't understand why because:
- I can ping my IP from the distant computer
- I have an SHH and an FTP server installed and I can access them from 
distant machines with no problems
- I do not have a firewall blocking port 80
- I cannot see any access restriction in the default httpd2.conf I'm
using.

any help would be welcome. I have the feeling that I'm missing something

obvious but I really can't find what.

thank you in advance.

JiHO.

PS:my httpd2.conf (if any other material is needeed I will send it):

### Global Configuration
###
# We now support multiple apache configurations on the same server. In
# common.conf, we put all directives that are common to all
implementations
# (httpd, httpd-perl, etc.)
# For Apache2 we load all conf files in conf.d
Include /etc/httpd/conf.d/*.conf
Include conf/commonhttpd.conf


###
### IP Address/Port and Proxied configuration section
###
# The APACHEPROXIED setting can be set in /etc/rc.d/init.d/httpd if you
# are using a proxy or accelerator, like the Apache-SGI or khttpd, so
that
# the fast web server serves static content while Apache handles the
# cgi or php files

#BindAddress *
<IfDefine APACHEPROXIED>
     Listen 8080
</IfDefine>
<IfDefine !APACHEPROXIED>
     Listen 80
</IfDefine>

# Likewise, we can set apache as the server by default and send perl
# requests via ProxyPass to apache-mod_perl. It increases performance
# since the perl interpreter is only used for perl and the standard
apache
# does all the html and image files, with a smaller footprint.
#
# If you install apache and apache-mod_perl, this is the default config.
# If you don't want two web servers to use perl, uninstall apache, and
# apache-mod_perl will not be proxied.

<IfDefine PERLPROXIED>
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
     RewriteEngine on
     RewriteRule ^proxy:.*  -  [F]

### Log configuration Section
###

<IfModule mod_log_config.c>
#Single logfile with access, agent and referer information
#This is the default, if vlogs are not defined for the main server

#If VLOG is defined in conf/vhosts/Vhost.conf, we use this entry
CustomLog "|/usr/sbin/advxsplitlogfile" vhost env=VLOG
</IfModule>

###
### Virtual Hosts
###
# We include different templates for Virtual Hosting. Have a look in the
# vhosts directory and modify to suit your needs.
Include conf/vhosts/Vhosts.conf
#Include conf/vhosts/DynamicVhosts.conf
#Include conf/vhosts/VirtualHomePages.conf
