Install Apache Web Server¶

1. Install the Apache Web Server with the YaST or yum utility.

2. Find "httpd.conf".
This is /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf on CentOS and /etc/php5/apache2/httpd.conf on SuSE

3. Edit the "httpd.conf" configuration file with the following:

 DirectoryIndex index.htm index.shtm index.html index.shtml index.php

 HostnameLookups On
 

Note: It may be possible to edit httpd.conf in YaST2 as well.

4. Restart the web server.

apachectl restart
     or
/sbin/service httpd restart     (ON CentOS)
     or
/etc/init.d/apache2 restart   (ON SuSE)
     or
/sbin/service httpd restart

If you want to start the web server automatically at boot on SuSE

SuSE >chkconfig apache2 on
