httpd: Could not reliably determine the server's fully qualified domain name, using 127.0.0.1 for ServerName

Question

I tried to restart my Apache server on CentOS 5.0 and got this message:

httpd: Could not reliably determine the server\'s fully qualified domain name,

Answer 1

If you don't have httpd.conf in folder /etc/apache2, you should have apache2.conf - simply add:

ServerName localhost

Then restart the apache2 service.
