Hello

I have the line

		/etc/init.d/httpd start

in the file

		/etc/rc.d/rc.local

but the web server will not start when the machine is booted.

I am using fedora core 5.

What do I need to do to cause the server to start at boot time?.


Thanks,

Terry Bailey

You should be able to just add httpd to chkconfig for it to autostart upon
boot.  HTTPD is probably already listed in chkconfig but is set to off for
all run levels.  Try turning it on using the following syntax:


chkconfig [--level <levels>] <name> <on|off|reset>
