On a network with minimum group and passwd files and NIS to supplement the other group and passwd entries. >Description: It seems under FreeBSD 2.2.5, if you do not have a valid group and owner in the conf.h file, httpd will not run. Even if you override the defaults in the ROOT/etc/httpd.conf file. They must be valid before you can override the defaults. The current default is nouser and nogroup. If you compile with the current defaults, it checks for nouser and nogroup regardless of what your set up is. >How-To-Repeat: Simply use the default setup with freebsd 2.2.5. >Fix: The way to fix it, is to put a valid group and owner DEFAULT_OWNER and DEFAULT_GROUP defines in SRC_ROOT/src/include/conf.h. That should fix everything. I do not know if this was reported before. I couldn't find any bug reports on this problem at all in any of the databases. So hopefully this is not a duplicate bug. >Audit-Trail: State-Changed-From-To: open-feedback State-Changed-By: coar State-Changed-When: Mon Jun 1 04:12:51 PDT 1998 State-Changed-Why: Do you get an error either in the error log or on the screen when you try to start with the unedited conf.h?
