I took a quick look after installing openSUSE 11.2 (kde live cd) in Yast and I couldn’t see anything for configuring Apache.
Is there anything in Yast for Apache (and I just didn’t notice it) or does something have to be installed before it shows up?
I’m hoping I’m just blind.
Did you install the yast2-http-server package?
Is this the whole Apache package, or just a Yast item for the http-server?
I know that some Yast items show up even when it is not installed (e.g. Samba Server) so I was expecting the Apache one would be there even if Apache wasn’t installed (yet).
I am looking to eventually set up openSUSE as a web server and being able to do the configuration (like virtual machines, file directories,etc.) through Yast would be really, really cool.
It’s just the GUI for configuring Apache with YaST. I don’t know how much it’s capable of these days. It’s not a big deal to configure Apache by editing a few files, provided you understand the config file layout. There’s a logic to the scheme.

If you look at yast software installation and choose to view the schemes you
can see a “Web and Lamp server” scheme.
If you select that you can see on the mright side that all needed apache and
yast html packages are automatically selected.
