viewing http://hda gives me page load error

[hm84]

My problem is what i believe the lack of knowledge with linux. I've installed amahi had the page load up perfectly and played around with the system and to my disbelief i created chaos. What i did was enabled network manager and it screwed up my dhcp settings and all computers at home were not getting internet access. However that issue is finally solved and but and the network is running as usual except for the fact that i cant get into the web page http://hda. can someone please help me. I cant type in hda or localhost as firefox will say page load error.

Help is greatly appreciated.

Regards

it seems your DNS is borked.
have you tried restarting the hda?

you can also check if the named service is running.
you can check it like this:
root@localhost# service named status
if you get some output stating server is up and running it's a config issue, if the service is stopped start it like this:
root@localhost# service named start
it should start without errors (only [OK])

yeah, networkmanager was giving us too much headache and we turned it off.

if you just enabled it one time, then rebooting should help.

if you enabled it permanently via chkconfig, you should probably consider undoing that.
(if you don't know what i'm talking about, then you proably did not enable it permanently)

you could also try:

Code: Select all

hda-install -n YOURINSTALLCODE

however, note that that command above will reset your network settings, including any new settings you may have added recently (aliases, static IPs, etc.).

its a config problem? should i just reinstall? what should i do now

[hm84]

actually i did the reinstall and it still doesn't work. Maybe someone can guide me in a troubleshoot manner. Like looking at logs. I know how to in windows but i dont think linux is that easy. I dont even know where the apache logs are?

Thanks so much in advance
