Reinstall , apache still doesnt work , same for inetd

["moi" <luv at gmx dot fr>]

I made the installation from scratch again

here's what i have in the etc directory: a file named path

here are it's contents :







PATH="/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:$PATH"

USER="`id -un`"

# Set up USER's home directory
if [ -z "$HOME" ]; then
  HOME="/home/$USER"
fi

if [ ! -d "$HOME" ]; then
  mkdir -p "$HOME"
fi

export HOME USER

for i in /etc/profile.d/*.sh ; do
  if [ -f $i ]; then
    . $i
  fi
done

export MAKE_MODE=unix
export PS1='\[\033]0;\w\007
\033[32m\]\u@\h \[\033[33m\w\033[0m\]
$ '

cd "$HOME"




Running   sh   is succesfull
But apache still doesn't work

does it work on ur machine ??
Oh and i misspelled , of course it was not apache.exe  but  httpd.exe    ;-)

what changes should i aplly to this file so that an httpd command won't
result in an       unknown command error message ??

I get the same error with  the daemon  inetd  command

maybe the problems are linked

Thanks for ur help
