Re: iTools will not start and SSL will not install

[James Paul <testing.zone@xxxxxxxxxx>]

HI Eric,

Thanks for the assistance, but it still does not start Apache. I made a
fresh start erased everything and re-installed my MacOS X Server 1.2,
WebObjects 4.0.1 (plus patch 3) and OpenBase 6.5 in that order and then have
re-installed iTools 5.0.18. On starting up itools.app the app will start but
not apache. I reeive this message

iTools Messages

Tue Aug 22 09:18:32 BST 2000
/usr/sbin/apachectl restart: httpd not running, trying to start
Syntax error on line 492 of
/Local/Library/WebServer/tenon/apache/conf/iTools.conf:
WebObjectsConfig takes one argument, Load balancing configuration path for
WebObjects applications
/usr/sbin/apachectl restart: httpd could not be started}

Then I install the WebObjects-4.5.1.pkg.tar.gz update and try to start
again. I then receive this following message.

/usr/sbin/apachectl restart: httpd not running, trying to start
Syntax error on line 944 of
/Local/Library/WebServer/Configuration/apache.conf:
WebObjectsConfig takes two arguments, Configuration URI, read interval
/usr/sbin/apachectl restart: httpd could not be started

I have enclosed a copy of my itools.conf file in the attachments, the file
does have the " 300" on the end.

I dont know if this makes any difference but I am running this with no
connection to the internet. I am trying to learn Mac OS X Server,
WebObjects, and iTools etc so that in the next few weeks I can deploy sites
that I have created.
