I dunno about the rest of you, but I'm buying me a fallout shelter and about 20 years supply of tinned food.

Just on the off-chance that Nostradamus knew what he was talking about after all.

I'm getting scared...

Scotty's Techie Advice Thread

Dear Scotty,

Last night I was trying to set up a Linux/Apache/MySQL/PHP web-server from the command line. I got FC6 installed fine, but when I was installing apache (1.3.37) I couldn't get it to configure using the Non-SSL Dynamic Shared Objects installation method. "Make Install" kept throwing up errors, almost as if I was missing a C compiler. Any help you can give would be gratefully received

Regards,

Paul

;)

Dear Paul,

Kick it in the groin as if there were no tomorrow.

Regards,

Scotty.

(PS: I see the problem, tho... Look at the serial number of your Apache. "1.3.37" spells "1337" and we all know that doesn't work for a metre...;) )

Hi Paul,

Mmmm...........that's a difficult one, I think I can see your problem, go back to when you successfully installed FC6, a rather fine programme if you don't mind me saying, and try THIS, I think it'll solve your little problem.
Any more queries Paul, don't hesitate to ask.

Keith.

I can just picture the rest of the students running screaming from the room, as clouds of smoke billow out of the door.

And that's only from when he puts his Wake DVD on... :innocent:
