OK, I changed the <Location /server-status> section and allowed everyone to access it and note that the apachectl command does work. I tried to install FrontPage and it still fails. Rats. As far as why I cannot get server-status to work "out of the box" is not my current issue I will leave it to those who care. For those who want details of the failed FP installation: ===================================================== Where is the current apache control file (apachectl) located: []/usr/sbin/apachectl Currently running Apache/ Checking for previous versions of FrontPage Server Extensions to upgrade... You have no previous versions of FrontPage Server Extensions installed. There are no settings to migrate! For Apache 2.0, FrontPage requires Apache version or later. Please first upgrade to Apache 2.0.40 or later, with mod_so. ====================================================== OK - I figured it out. To install FP on FC4: 1) Follow instructions in: http://www.howtoforge.com/linux_apache2_frontpage2002 but do not install the fp product until these steps are first performed: a) Edit /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf 1) Look for the Listen *:80, change it to 80 2) Comment out default Virtual Host: <VirtualHost *> ... </VirtualHost> b) Rename or delete: /var/www/html/auth/.htaccess file if exist. c) Get previous version's apachectl shell-script file. I used FC2's script. Current script apparently is either broken or changed so that behavior is different. apachectl -v start for example does not return any version information, for example and the fp script requires it. 2) Complete the rest of the installation instructions from (1) above. 3) You might want to uncomment the <VirtualHost *> ... </VirtualHost> block, but I am testing to see of that will cause any problems. It shouldn't but I don't know. If it does, comment it back out. I think that covers it...
