Nope .. I dunno if this will help out at all. I just had this
problem a few weeks ago and with help from Dave W. and Dan Cyr I figured out what it
was.
Most likely it's all network file related. If you already uncommented
the httpd.conf file to let the servername thing be processed, then
comment it back.
What I did to fix it was to make sure that in the etc/hosts file I
was properly assigning the present computer's network info. If memory
recalls me it's something like..
127.0.0.1 localhost
137.49.1.123 conan
make sure yours is something like this .. where conan would be your
hostname and the ip b4 it would be the corresponding one.
