what are you using to start apache? How are you starting apache?
does dmesg give you any output when you start?
are you using the installed version of apache that came with sol10 or the one you installed separately?

need some output from ya... "buddy" heheheh

on your server, can you do the following

telnet localhost 80
GET /

what do you see after "GET /"

connection terminated immediately or do you see some text ??

Hi,
Dont panic, you could do it on your own with a bit of 'imagination'

Check what port your apache is listening on 'grep -i listen httpd.conf'
then check if that port is in use 'netstat -an | grep _the_port_u_just_grepped'
You can inspect the log files which are usually 'error_log' if something went wrong and 'access_log'

did I not ask you to try doing the following?

[root]# telnet localhost 80 <-------- you type this
Trying 127.0.0.1...
Connected to localhost.
Escape character is '^]'.
GET / <---------- then you type this

This is the most basic test for any http server

if it display something like below means webserver is ok, it's probably something wrong with your browser.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
<META HTTP-EQUIV=Refresh CONTENT="0; URL=http://yourdomain.com./banner.html"
>
<html>
</html>
Connection closed by foreign host.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

if this also cannot see means your webserver is using a non standard port or httpd daemons are not started.

Can you run that command and see what is being displayed?
