Apache2 only answering to https requests

[alek6cu]

Hi:

Can someone help me ?

I start apache2 in knoppix 5.01 and when i browse to http://localhost or http://127.0.0.1 it gives a blank page or complaints that the conection with the host is broken. But if i request https://localhost (instead of http) it serves the page correctly

Thanks in advance

Maybe PHP CGIs just won't work properly in your version of Knoppix. I have had a similiar problem in Knoppix 5.1.1. , I can't get Perl CGIs to work, but PHP CGIs work just fine. I got around the problem by installing a Version of Apache 1.3.26 on my fat32 Partition of my Hard Drive. I simply use Apache 1.3.26 instead of Apache 2.2 for my Perl CGIs.

Hi. Thanks for the response, but installing other version of apache just wont work for me since im using Knoppix as a live cd and dont want to carry around a flash memory with knoppix settings. I wold like that that everything worked just "out of the box" like it did in version 3.6.

You could try upgrading to Knoppix 5.1.1 . I know the PHP CGIs work in that version, although Perl CGIs don't .

I would if they woldn't have removed MySQL in version 5.1.1 . Does removing MySQL makes any sense to anybody?
