Hmm... maybe there is a problem with your hosts file (in WinNT systems (NT/W2K/XP), I think you can find it in /winnt/system32/drivers/etc). Normally, you should have a line that looks like:
127.0.0.1 localhost # default localhost (the "#default localhost" is just a comment). If this entry is missing or different, I suppose it's possible to lose access to "localhost" altogether, though I don't know for sure (and don't want to test out either <g>). What happens when you "ping localhost" at a command prompt? --- Seairth Jacobs [EMAIL PROTECTED] "Ryan A" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote in message 049a01c24eb5$3b29fdd0$61d396c1@l2zcaxu7emppqh">news:049a01c24eb5$3b29fdd0$61d396c1@l2zcaxu7emppqh... > Hey, > Thank you for replying... > > I checked the httpd.conf file and this is what I saw.... > > ServerName localhost > ServerName 212.92.**.*** > > (The stars are numbers of course but I put them there to protect myself from > evil genus's on the list :-) ) > I have no idea what the second line is for....apache still only responds to > 127.0.0.1 > Any new ideas? > > Cheers, > -Ryan > > > > > Anyway, I installed PHPTriad first but since the version of php is 4.0.0 I > > uninstalled it and installed SpaceServer...the problem I noticed with both > > was I could not get the default page from apache with http://localhost/ I > > have to use http://127.0.0.1 or it gives me a page not found error....Any > > idea why?
