Hi.

Just a couple of quick questions: Exactly which OS are you using? Is Apache listening on port 8080? Are you running a firewall? Is port 8080 open? Are you using SELinux? Are the correct contexts on the files in DocumentRoot set?

Scoot

I am running Redhat 6 , SElinux was enabled,apache is listening to port 8080 and it is open.


Code:
308 % netstat -na | grep 8080
tcp        0      0 149.186.251.174:8080        0.0.0.0:*                   LISTEN

Code:
311 %  grep DocumentRoot /local/tools/apache/conf/httpd.conf
# DocumentRoot: The directory out of which you will serve your
DocumentRoot "/local/tools/apache/htdocs"
    # access content that does not live under the DocumentRoot.

Code:
312 % ls -l /local/tools/apache/htdocs/
total 4
-rw-r--r--. 1 weather weather 53 Jul 16 11:41 sample.html

If you don't get an answer immediately, wait! We are not "on call".

Why have you compiled apache from source? Certainly Redhat must have a package available for it! Compiling from source by hand may cause uncommon problems which we couldn't predict, depending on what configuration you chose.

Having SElinux enabled greatly complicates things. This problem may have nothing to do with your web server.

Do you see anything in /var/log/apache2/access_log ?

Did you forget to replace User and Group in httpd.conf ?

if so try this

Code:
$ apache_user="user"; apache_group="yourgroup"
$ sed -i 's/User daemon/User '"$apache_user"'/g;s/Group daemon/Group '"$apache_group"'/g' httpd.conf

I have added user/group

only one entry for access log.

Code:
/local/tools/apache/logs > more access_log
149.186.251.174 - - [10/Jul/2014:22:14:24 +0000] "GET /" 200 161

I used this to build on Centos as well as on ubuntu, you may try

Code:
./configure --prefix=path/to/http_version \
		    --with-ssl=path/to/ssl_version \
		    --with-z=path/to/zlib_version \
                    --with-apr=path/to/apr_version \
                    --with-apr-util=path/to/apr_utility_version \
                    --with-pcre=path/to/pcre_version  --enable-so

Code:
$ httpd  -v
Server version: Apache/2.4.7 (Unix)
