Apache Web server Configuration

I checked the error log file in /opt/lib/httpd/logs
here only one file as apache_rutime_status. . But this is an empty file...

log files are in /var/opt/httpd/logs
these are the error messages....

[Tue Sep 28 06:07:00 1999] Server configured -- resuming normal operations

 that means it is a problem with group id... i have to test.....

[Tue Sep 28 07:57:51 1999] httpd: caught SIGTERM, shutting down
what does this means....

i created the group such as nogroup
/etc/group
--------------
nogroup::65535:nobody
nobody::60001:

/etc/passwd
------------------
nobody:x:60001:60001:uid no body:/:
 
but still it is showing the following mesages

[Fri Oct  1 07:17:45 1999] initgroups: Invalid argument
[Fri Oct  1 07:17:45 1999] - unable to set groups
[Fri Oct  1 07:28:37 1999] initgroups: Invalid argument
[Fri Oct  1 07:28:37 1999] - unable to set groups

why it is not able to cerate this group..

   

Umm...

Try Change Group  #-1  in httpd.conf to
 Group 60001  , or Group 65535 ????

       Hi
            i tried to add the group 'nogroup' by using the command groupadd -g 65345 nogroup. but it is showing the following error messages.
        gid is too long. choose another id.
        so i put 50001. that accepted. now that probelm is over. but now a new error message is showing and this showing continously in the
        screen..

        dynamic linker: /opt/bin/httpd: symbol not found: select
        dynamic linker: /opt/bin/httpd: symbol not found: select
        dynamic linker: /opt/bin/httpd: symbol not found: select
        dynamic linker: /opt/bin/httpd: symbol not found: select


        If i  try to access the pages in the server. it is shwoing host found waiting for reply.. this is shwoing continously..
        but the page is not comming... may be the problem with this dynamic linker eoor...

did you download this as a binary ? or compile it yourself?
sounds like a library incompatibility

I downloaded it form freebird.com and i unzipped that and installed in my machine. How can i check wheteher it is in binary form or not....

If it is a binary form what are the things i have to do..?
can you help in that matter....

if you didnt compile it ... ie. it ran as soon as you unpacked it.. then its binary form... i'd suspect there is a incompatibility with the system that made the program and your system...

try getting the source code from www.apache.org and recompiling it from scratch.. that way it will support the library files on your system.. or at least tell you what is missing when it compiles
