I had also the same problem while I was executing the following code.

$fp=fopen(“userpoll.txt”,”w”);

Another problem is that, the solution given by you works only with the existing file.
Now, what if I want to open a file which is not exist, than what about the permission of that file.

Actually I did. I had to run “sudo chmod o=r logger.log” to give the “Other” group read permission to the log file itself. Once that was done, I had no problems seeing the webpage.

Hope this helps others in the future.

I’ve followed the steps to the letter (I believe) and when I go to the newly created web page I get this:

Warning: fopen(logger.log) [function.fopen]: failed to open stream: Permission denied in /var/log/index.php on line 8
Error while reading log file

Did I miss something?

ServerAdmin you@mail.com
ServerName myname.homelinux.com
ServerAlias myname.homelinux.com
DirectoryIndex index.php
DocumentRoot /logs

Are you for real? apache2 doesn’t like that idea.
Sure there aren’t any tags missing there?

I believe I have followed all instructions to the letter but I get an Alert “The URL is not valid and cannot be loaded” a few seconds after my test index.html is displayed. This is really strange because everything seems to work OK until that alert pops up. I am setting up ubutu 8.10 with apache2 using vhost.

larger font: hold the “Cntrl” key and use your middle scroll wheel on your mouse… no middle scroll wheel? Time to upgrade a bit…

Must have missed something above, as I have done it 3x now from start to finish and still don’t have the server seeing the outside world yet.

VirtualHost *:443 -- mixing * ports and non-* ports with a NameVirtualHost address is not supported, proceeding with undefined results [Fri Dec 07 21:48:37 2007] [warn] NameVirtualHost xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx has no VirtualHosts [Fri Dec 07 21:48:37 2007] [warn] NameVirtualHost neaveillmin.org:0 has no VirtualHosts [Fri Dec 07 21:48:37 2007] [warn] NameVirtualHost localhost:0 has no VirtualHosts [Fri Dec 07 21:48:37 2007] [warn] NameVirtualHost localhost:0 has no VirtualHosts

i use the logs “/var/logs”

/etc/init.d/ksyslogd is wrong. the name of the daemon is “sysklogd”
and I didn’t modify anything, because ‘SYSLOGD=”-u syslog”‘ logs already what i need to know.

no problem! sorry for the little font, I was a little bit absent-minded. I hope the admin can enlarge the font
