Subject: [gentoo-user] apache wont start when there is no network available
Date: Thu, 11 Oct 2007 13:39:09
Message-Id: 200710110917.40883.gentoo@matthewlee.org
1 Yesterday I installed Apache2 Mysql 5 and php 5 along with tikiwiki 1.9.8 on
2 my laptop (localhost). The idea is to play with and learn how to use
3 tikiwiki before I install it on my webhost and revamp my website.
4 Everything was working fine and is working fine here in the office where I
5 have online access. But when I got home last night with the intention of
6 playing with tikiwiki I couldn't because apache wouldn't start. I wouldn't
7 start because net.eth1 couldn't connect to anything. net.eth1 is my wireless
8 connection, net.eth0 is my wired connection. Neither will start at home
9 because I don't have internet at home.
10 Question, why does apache2 need net.eth1 to be running? How can I get apache2
11 going without a network connection? Surely everything it needs is on the
12 laptop (localhost)
13 I've looked at the httpd.conf but I can't see anything relevant
14 I'm clearly new to this apache stuff, any help would be appreciated
