Everything to this point went smoothly! I edited
/usr/local/etc/apache/httpd.conf ONLY to set the ServerName to
the IP address of the machine. However, when I try to start
apache I get:
#/usr/local/sbin/apachectl start
/usr/local/sbin/apachectl start: httpd could not be started
Maybe httpd-error.log contains some suspicious-looking error
messages?
Of course it does! duh!
For the record, the error messages in httpd-error.log read:
[alert] mod_unique_id:unable to gethostbyname("xxxxx")
where xxxx was the made-up host name I used during the install.
I edited /etc/rc.conf to change hostname to a valid name, and
apache now starts fine.
Thank you!
