Problems after installation

Mugur,

That fixed it!!! Thank you.

I am now at the point of configuring the web server and I do
not know how to do this - do you have an example I can
follow?


I do not have a DNS entry as I am using a static IP address
(this is an evaluation machine) so I don't know to edit:
/usr/local/campsite/etc/campsite/campsite-vhost.conf

"and replace $SERVER_NAME with the appropriate value.
Your system administrator should provide the server name. It
must also be registered in the DNS (Domain Name
Service)."


nor do I know how to:

"Include the file “[instance_name]-vhost.conf” in
the main apache configuration file." Do I 'cut and
paste' the contents of the vhost.conf file into
/etc/apache/httpd.conf or is there a specific syntax to
include another file?

Thanks,
Joe

hi holman,

should we include this also in the online manual or the dev
pages?

Hi Micz!

yes, maybe the comments zone of the Campsite Manual is a
good place,
it is very useful because users can read a little bit more
about the
topic in the Manual where they are.

it would be better to create a couple of wiki pages like
"Problems and
Common Errors" (for installation-related issues) and
"Installation
troubleshooting".
