Problem with restarting Apache 2

rated 0 times [ 111] [ 0] / answers: 1 / hits: 327627 / 2 Years ago, fri, september 16, 2022, 10:56:02

I'm trying to restart Apache 2:

sudo service apache2 restart

But get the below error:

* Restarting web server apache2 



AH00558: apache2: Could not reliably determine the server's fully qualified domain name, using 127.0.1.1.



Set the 'ServerName' directive globally to suppress this message

I've tried to change

sudo gedit /etc/apache2/httpd.conf

A blank file appears, and I'd added this:

ServerName localhost

But that error doesn't disappear!

How can I fix this problem?

I found this: How do I restart/reload Apache when it can't determine the domain name?

Good news! Apache is restarting successfully. Apache just isn't sure
where you want serve from, so it's choosing your localhost (127.0.0.1)
by default. To prevent this message from appearing, clarify that you
want to serve from localhost (127.0.0.1) by adding the following line
into your /etc/apache2/apache2.conf file:
ServerName localhost
