Post subject:  Problem with Web Security in R6
Hey,

First of all R6 is really slick.

I did notice that the web server stops responding on my machine after I try to set a username/password using the "web security" menu item.

Any ideas on how I can restart the web server?

tia,

You can restart Apache (web server) by running:
Code:
/etc/init.d/apache2 restart
as root

if that doesn't work just try:
Code:
/etc/init.d/apache2 start
as root

You can get to a terminal window by hitting alt+x. Type su and hit enter, then enter your password to become root.

disclaimer = I don't have R6 yet but this is pretty standard for restarting apache (web server) so it should work.

(sorry if this is too "basic")

Good Luck,

Martian

Hey,

I did initially try that, but I suspect they aren't using apache (as it doesn't work)

Well, it seemed like a good idea at the time :)

You can have a look in /etc/init.d/ and see if you can find what web server they are running. There should be an entry for it.

There is no longer an Apache. We went smaller and lighter w/ lighttpd. In addition, we went for speed with init ao we are using runit.
Code:
sudo sv restart lighttpd

Thanks cecil (for this and all your hard work)

with only a few minor tweaks R6 worked perfectly for me

if you upgrade lighttpd this problem should now be fixed.

pacman -Syu lighttpd.
Please note you will need to redo the websecurity settings.
Also it only applies to the mythweb.

Yeah, you have to answer NO to the first two questions or it doesn't work.
