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

There are two ways to resolve this error:

1. Include /etc/apache2/httpd.conf

   Add the above line in file /etc/apache2/apache2.conf

2. Add this line at the end of the file /etc/apache2/apache2.conf:

   ServerName localhost
