hi
im running apache php and mysql on XP.
it was all running dandy last night and now i start up mysql and apache and nothing is coming up in the browser.
apache seems to be working - in the console it just says its running .

last night i messed around with Dreamweaver MX (created a site etc etc to view my php's)... but i dont think that would have messed up my apache settings?

any body have any idea on where the problem might be?
heres errorlog output ....



code:--------------------------------------------------------------------------------[Wed Dec 10 18:32:22 2003] [error] [client 127.0.0.1] File does not exist: c:/apache/apache/htdocs/cfide/main/ide.cfm--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Tnx

Hello,
I am having a similar problem with Apache. Its running, but my web pages are not being displayed. I was wondering if you ever solved your problem. I've been looking online for about 5 hours and tried different things but nothing is working.

Thanks,
JJ

I have a feeling somewhere that maybe Dreamweaver did something..

when you go to http://localhost/ does that work, no error in your logs?

also, php default setting would be to parse .php files, .chm filoes are something else. are you using Dreamweaver to request your site, it could be that dreamweaver is looking for a file, that did not install for some reason.

the path in your error log exists (c:\apache\apache\htdocs\*)
and your httpd.conf, can you lookup the last modified date, was it modified since you run Dreamweaver?

WOW. The exact same problem has just happened to me.
Apache was running completely fine up until I downloaded DreamWeaver, played around with it, and now my site doesn't work.

I can see it completely fine if i type any of the following:
localhost
127.0.0.1
my.ip.here

But anyone else that tries to view my site (as in my friends) or if I try viewing it through a proxy cannot view anything.

No, I'm not using DreamWeaver to try and view my site. I've tried using Internet Explorer and Firefox. No difference.

Also, just to make sure to let you know, I'm running Apache 2.

PLEASE help! This is a huge annoyance! Thanks a lot

SYN[i]CAL,

your friends could visit your site before you installed DreamWeaver ?
you are sure you have no firewall blocking the requests?

also, try in your browser: http://localhost/not_exists
do you get the Apache error page "Apache/1.3.** running at localhost on port 80"
you also see the request in your logs

for some reason I think dreamweaver should not break your site, for external visitors.

Okay, when I goto /not_exists , I get nothing. 404 Not Found. But I can still see localhost completely fine. I have left the default Apache welcome page up just while trying to troubleshoot.

Sadly I'm not 100% positive Apache stopped working right after I installed Dreamweaver, because I didn't try right away. But when I tried approx. the day after, I found it very weird that it wasn't working.

I've tried doing a completely fresh reinstall of Apache with still no luck.

Now here's my error.log located in C:\Program Files\Apache Group\Apache2\logs

Edit: I noticed the title saying Apache PHP not working. Well now even without PHP, Apache still isn't working. Just thought I'd mention that.

The site is located at 24.215.15.30 , in case you want to try it, or try something, hell I don't know..

Also this is what was just added to access.log


127.0.0.1 - - [30/Aug/2004:12:42:44 -0400] "GET /not_exists HTTP/1.1" 404 284
127.0.0.1 - - [30/Aug/2004:12:44:54 -0400] "GET /not_exists HTTP/1.1" 404 284


Hopefully some if this information helps, I can try reinstalling and following instructions or anything to try and find the problem, I just want my baby working again Thanks
