|have opensuse 13,1 up and running.
|
but i have issues with the apache . guess that i have messed up the configuration.
how can i check that.
how can i do a update via yast?
look forward to hear from you

Again?
Or does it still not work?
how can i check that.
You should know this already:
sudo systemctl status apache2
And enter “http://localhost” as address into a web browser, this should give you a test page at least, if Apache is running.
how can i do a update via yast?
What kind of update do you mean?
Enter YaST->Online Updates to install the official updates.
Or right-click on the package(s) in YaST->Software Management and select “Update”.
If you want to update to a different version, you have to add an additional repo and then switch the package(s) to the versions from that repo, by using the “Versions” tab.
But if your configuration is broken, this won’t help anyway.
The configuration files are not replaced when you update/re-install apache.
And that’s a good thing ™! 
To get the default configuration, just remove the directory /etc/apache2 and re-install the apache2 package.
sudo rm -r /etc/apache2
sudo zypper in -f apache2
But of course all changes you manually did to the configuration will be lost when you do this.
So better just rename it:
sudo mv /etc/apache2 /etc/apache2.bak
sudo zypper in -f apache2
hello dear wolfi
currently i am on holiday and have not enough time nor bandwith to do extensive talks & investigations. But i will do more checks and i sure will digg deeper into all your advices at the weekend.
So i expect to get more out of all the Apache-things at the weekend.
then i come back and report more
meanwhile - many many thanks for all your help
greetings
dilbert
ps - you do a great job here. Many many thanks

later to day i wiill check if the apache is working correctly
guess that i can run locahost - with success
i come back and report all my findings
hi
update - nope at the moment the localhost is not workin
guess that i have to make some configurations first
- can i check some things with the terminal - to get a better overview on the current situation?
No.
Did you remove the old configuration first before re-installing apache2?
sudo rm -r /etc/apache2/*
As I said, the existing configuration will not be replaced when you re-install the package.
You should also re-install the packages “apache2-doc”, “apache2-mod_perl”, “apache2-mod_php5” and “yast2-instserver”, as they also contain files in /etc/apache2/.
But if those files are missing, apache2 should start anyway.
Did you actually start apache?
sudo systemctl start apache2
or to enable it to be started automatically on boot:
sudo systemctl enable apache2
You can also use YaST->System->Services Manager for both things.
Do you actually have a index.html in /srv/www/htdocs/? A simple test page is available in the package “apache2-example-pages”. Do you have that installed?
And as you have been told a few times already, to check whether apache2 is running, use:
sudo systemctl status apache2
This would also show the reason why it failed to start.
And apache’s log files are in /var/log/apache2/.
hello again thx for your quick reply
see the commands i have applied.

or do i need to do more (other ) steps … look forward to hear from you
Many many thanks for all you did so far.
Your help in this forum is very very supportive and helpful…
Please use “sudo systemctl status -l apache2” to see the full output as the message suggests (and you have been told already in a different thread).
But as far as I can decipher that, /etc/apache2 seems to be missing.
You should of course remove the configuration before you re-install apache2, not afterwards.
So please re-install the package(s) again:
sudo zypper in -f apache2-doc apache2-mod_perl apache2-mod_php5 yast2-instserver
(but better check first which of those packages are actually installed and only re-install those)

just a note:
So you didn’t have yast2-instserver installed before.
you can of course uninstall it again if you want.
I don’t think you would need it…

Yes, that’s because you (re)moved it earlier.
That’s why I advised to reinstall apache2 again in the first place.

So apparently you have specified a module in /etc/sysconfig/apache2 that no longer exists in apache 2.4.
Could you please post that file?
I remember that problem from another thread where the OP also posted a solution.
I will have to look that up though, may take a while…
PS, have look here:
http://forums.opensuse.org/showthread.php/494218-Apache-Syntax-Error-etc-apache2-ssl-global-conf?p=2624109#post2624109
That’s not the thread I was thinking of, but I cannot seem to find that one right now. I guess I would have to look through all threads I’m subscribed to, but that would really take a while since I can’t even remember the month that one would have been in.
So the question is, do you even need that module, i.e do you want to set up a server that serves via ssl?
I wouldn’t want to waste my time for solving a problem that doesn’t even exist.
hello dear wolfi
many many thx for the quick reply and the help. to answer a important question…
So the question is, do you even need that module, i.e do you want to set up a server that serves via ssl?
no - i would not. i do not need the ssl feature. does this make the - “solution” a bit easier.
Yes, I think so.
As I said, it should work fine with a default configuration.
So, could you please post your /etc/sysconfig/apache2?
Changing APACHE_MODULES back to the default (as mentioned in that file) should help as well.

Unfortunately this looks ok, and the same as here where apache works…
OTOH, your error message says “Syntax error on line 48 of /etc/apache2/ssl-global.conf”.
So try to comment that line out by adding a ‘#’ in front of it.
What does that file look now for you (especially that one line)?
You should have the default one, as I have.
Here it’s:
SSLSessionCache shmcb:/var/lib/apache2/ssl_scache(512000)
And Apache starts fine.
hello dear wolfi
many thanks for your reply!!!
i can comment out the line 48
currently the file looks like this…:
##
## SSL Global Context
##
## All SSL configuration in this context applies both to
## the main server and all SSL-enabled virtual hosts.
##
# These are the configuration directives to instruct the server how to
# serve pages over an https connection. For detailing information about these
# directives see <URL:http://httpd.apache.org/docs-2.2/mod/mod_ssl.html>
#
# Do NOT simply read the instructions in here without understanding
# what they do. They're here only as hints or reminders. If you are unsure
# consult the online docs. You have been warned.
# This global SSL configuration is ignored if
# "SSL" is not defined, or if "NOSSL" is defined.
<IfDefine SSL>

# terminal dialog) has to provide the pass phrase on stdout.

# Inter-Process Session Cache:
# Configure the SSL Session Cache: First the mechanism
# to use and second the expiring timeout (in seconds).
# shm means the same as shmht.
# Note that on most platforms shared memory segments are not allowed to be on
# network-mounted drives, so in that case you need to use the dbm method.

# Pseudo Random Number Generator (PRNG):

# WARNING! On some platforms /dev/random blocks if not enough entropy
# is available. This means you then cannot use the /dev/random device
# because it would lead to very long connection times (as long as
# it requires to make more entropy available). But usually those

# block. So, if available, use this one instead. Read the mod_ssl User
# Manual for more details.

</IfModule>
</IfDefine>
</IfDefine>
Shouldn’t actually be necessary, your file looks exactly like mine.
But I had a closer look on that file now, and that part is only used if the flag “SSL” is set.
# This global SSL configuration is ignored if
# "SSL" is not defined, or if "NOSSL" is defined.
AFAICS this would normally be set in the APACHE_SERVER_FLAGS variable in /etc/sysconfig/apache2, so have a look at this.
Here it is empty (i.e. the default).
hello dear wolfi -
many many thanks for all the help #
here we ve got the whole file:

# [It might look silly to not simply edit httpd.conf for the LoadModule statements.
# However, since the LoadModule statements might need an absolute path to the modules,
# switching between MPMs can be quite a hassle. It's easier to just give the names here.]

# * It pays to use IfDefine statements... like
# <IfModule mod_xyz.c>
# ....
# </IfModule>
#
# * In the APACHE_MODULES variable, you can use mod_xyz or just xyz syntax.
# You may also name an absolute path if you like.
#
# * NOTE ON SSL: before you can use mod_ssl, you need a server certificate.
# A test certificate can be created by entering
# 'cd /usr/share/doc/packages/apache2; ./certificate.sh' as root.
# Also, you need to set the ServerName inside the <VirtualHost _default_:443>
# block to the fully qualified domain name (see /etc/HOSTNAME).
# * if your server certificate is protected by a passphrase you should increase the
# APACHE_START_TIMEOUT (see above)
# * to finally enable ssl support, you need to add 'SSL' to APACHE_SERVER_FLAGS
# below.
#
# * modules listed here will be ignored if they are not installed

# Notably, to enable ssl support, 'SSL' needs to be added here.
# To enable the server-status, 'STATUS' needs to be added here.
#
# It does not matter if you write flag1, -D flag1 or -Dflag1.
# Multiple flags can be given as "-D flag1 -D flag2" or simply "flag1 flag2".
