Tried to upgrade to version 2.2.33 today but ran in to some problems. I'm running SUSE 10.3 but have never seen this problem before. The installation stopped after a few seconds and the following error massage was displayed: Code: NEGLIGENCE OR OTHERWISE) ARISING IN ANY WAY OUT OF THE USE OF THIS SOFTWARE, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGE. Do you accept the licence? [y/n]y Checking the syntax of the httpd.conf... ./setup2: line 710: httpd: command not found ERROR: The syntax of your httpd.conf is not ok! Please correct the error. The installation routine stops here! Could anyone help me solve this problem? or have anyone seen this before? Thanks Zalo
Was logged in as root when the problem accrued. Can not see any problems in my httpd.conf file either.

Do anyone have any ideas? Regards Zalo
The problem is not the httpd.conf, the problem is that the httpd binary or the symlink to it is missing. Find out how your apache binary is named e.g. by running: which apache2 which apache which httpd and then create a symlink like: ln -s /usr/bin/apache2 /usr/bin/httpd where /usr/bin/apache2 has to be replaced with the path to the httpd binary on your server.
which apache2: Code: websrv01:~ # which apache2 which: no apache2 in (/sbin:/usr/sbin:/usr/local/sbin:/root/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin:/usr/games:/usr/lib/mit/bin:/usr/lib/mit/sbin) which apache Code: websrv01:~ # which apache which: no apache in (/sbin:/usr/sbin:/usr/local/sbin:/root/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin:/usr/games:/usr/lib/mit/bin:/usr/lib/mit/sbin) which httpd: Code: websrv01:~ # which httpd which: no httpd in (/sbin:/usr/sbin:/usr/local/sbin:/root/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin:/usr/games:/usr/lib/mit/bin:/usr/lib/mit/sbin) Sorry, but did not quite understand that. Could you help me create the symlink? Thanks for the quick reply. Regards Zalo
Apache version 2.2.4-70.11 is installed according to YAST. This is the comments found under the Apache-devel in YAST. Is any of these "/usr/sbin" directories the one that I need?

Is there any way to narrow the search a litle bit? The "locate apache" command displays too many pages of files and folders so I cannot copy the all out for you. Zalo
