mozung Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 I am a newbie and trying to get my website online by using this tutorial on this link. http://www.xenocafe.com/tutorials/linux/centos/apache_web_server/index.php I might be wrong but this what i did. I used my LAN address 192.168.1.101 through out the httpd configuration file. on the other hand, at Enom settings, I used my real IP address for A address in record type. I dont know if that is right or wrong but I am trying best to my common sense and limited knowledge. For right now, I am just trying to get my website be online by using Enom settings. As far as my understanding, I am using DNS services of Enom and webhosting of apache at my server. Also when i run apache I see this error. [error] (EAI 2)Name or service not known: Could not resolve host name yourhostname -- ignoring! [ OK ] Any help will be greatly appreciated. thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
corbin Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 Look in your config files for "yourhostname". Looks like you just forgot to edit something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mozung Posted November 5, 2008 Author Share Posted November 5, 2008 Yes i wrongfully added :80 to ADDRESS. when I took this off. I see this error though [error] (EAI 2)Name or service not known: Could not resolve host name www.middlesystems.com -- ignoring! [Tue Nov 04 21:49:34 2008] [error] (EAI 2)Name or service not known: Could not resolve host name www.middlesystems.com -- ignoring! [Tue Nov 04 21:49:34 2008] [error] (EAI 2)Name or service not known: Could not resolve host name yourhostname -- ignoring! I guess, I might need to configure enom settings. I have only my real IP address added there Host name @ address myIpaddress record type a address nothing else in host records. is it correct? everything else in enom settings is default. thanks thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
