o and by the way, i hope you have broadband and a static ip, or else running a site outta your house isn't a good idea. sometimes using a dynamic ip works, but it's typically just a waste.

 
ive looked through that and i only understand 10% of it...i installed it with easy php if that helps...

yeah, i also have no idea how to use it, if anyone cud help, please do, i have basic knowledge of how webservers work, but when it comes to apache my brain kinda cancelles out

 
if you understand that document i can't really help you. go to tech-report.com and check their forums.

 
The best thing to do is follow the instructions and search google extensively whenever you don't understand something... that how I learned.

However, alot of the questions you may have when starting out are probably already answered in online documentation.

you probably have to get your router set up to forward port 80 to your lan server ip as i assume this is you:

Name: Ottawa-HSE-ppp244010.sympatico.ca

Address: 64.230.102.221

 
ok, so are you going to get someone to host your address for you? or are you using your server as a DNS server? Shaw doesn't accept DNS information from you unless you pay extra 10 bucks or so a month.

Apache with php and mysql...this is the simplest thing I can give you as it's what I use on my server which hosts only about 4 or 5 domains as of now.

Once you have everything unzipped, configure and install mysql at /usr/local/mysql

./configure --prefix=/usr/local/mysql

that's the default. you might want to enable some other options

then make && make install

untar php and apache. for php run the following command

./configure --with-apache=../apache_1.3.33 --with-jpeg-dir=/usr/local/lib --with-png-dir=/usr/local/lib

--with-zlib-dir=/usr/lib --with-freetype-dir=/usr/local/lib --with-mysql=/usr/local/mysql --enable-safe-

mode --with-tiff-dir=/usr/local/lib --with-gd --with-xml

That'll enable the gd graphics manipulation library, mysql support, and xml support. note the zlib, jpg, etc. stuff. unless you note where it is php won't compile gd correctly.

then make && make install

then for apache run...

./configure --prefix=/usr/local/apache --server-uid=apache --server-gid=apache --enable-module=so --enable-module=access --enable-module=log_config --enable-module=dir --enable-module=mime --enable-module=aut

h --enable-module=so --activate-module=src/modules/php4/libphp4.a

That'll enable only the modules you need as well as statically linking and loading php. Make sure the user and group apache exist.

make && make install

then

/usr/local/apache/bin/apachectl start

run /usr/local/apache/bin/apachectl configtest if yoru configuration file is f'd up and it will be b/c i didn't enable all the modules.

If you wanna chroot it...gimme 50 bucks and i'll do it for you b/c it's a bit of a pain.

otherwise...google

^ i'm thinkin he's running windows bud. unless he has cygwin for a bash, he can't use your instructions.

 
^i know, but if he's compiling it w/gcc for winbloze it's the same (or extremely similar) commands.

if thats your IP then yes it is. However, there are many factors which mays top you...

your router if you ahve one

your ISP blocking port 80

your config not listening ont he correct port.

go through these one by one and you should eb able to see it by typing in your IP address.

where do u get dot tk domains, ive neva been able to figure out how to get one, ive had to use those crappy free acounts with all the shit, can sum1 please tell me, thanks

 
A lot of firmware for routers now suppose free dns services. Just use dyndns.org and have your stuff auto update when the ip on your router changes. It's an extremely good feature.
