I have had apache set up on my Suse8.2 box which is connected to a smal LAN (SAMBA, Windoze, IMAC, more Suse). Suse8.2 also runs DNS (BIND9) but no firewall. I recently updated a number of rpms using APT and all seemed to go successfully. But I now can't connect to the apache server from the Suse Box using "localhost", servername or IP address. I get various responses from mozilla1.4-7 eg gateway timeout, server unreachable etc, Similar responses when I use Konqueror and Lynx. Apache2 error log reports "Invalid method in request" Pings work to localhost etc. Now for the confusing part (to me !). I can access the server from other machines on the LAN including Safari browser on an imac, and IE on Windoze. In exasperation I have upgraded Apache1.3 to Apache2.044-32 with essentially the same result. So it may be the problem is nothing to do with apache. Any ideas on what I can try to narrow down the cause. -- Phil Faulkner

1) What are your proxy settings? 2) Is SSL/HTTPS involved? 3) What does the command 'netstat -tpan | grep htt' say? Peter

Thanks for quick response 1) Not using a proxy its only on an internal LAN 2) Not involved knowingly(?!) how do I check 3) jan03:/home/phil # netstat -tpan | grep htt tcp 0 0 :::80 :::* LISTEN 4158/httpd2-prefork
-- Phil Faulkner Not using a proxy on LAN but Mozilla settings was using auto proxy now changed to individual settings for HTTP, FTP and Gopher with localhost and local network exempt works. Lynx was using was picking up settings from Suse/KDE global proxy settings. Don't know why an upgrade caused the problem, but allowing localhost and LAN network to be exempt from proxy settings seems to work -- Phil Faulkner
