RE: Apache 2.2.0 Listen Directive

["Fenlason, Josh" <jf...@ptc.com>]

Nothing is output by running ./apachectl start.  The access_log and
error_log files are created, but do not contain anything.  Running
./httpd output the following:

bash-2.05b$ ./httpd 
httpd: Could not reliably determine the server's fully qualified domain
name, using 132.253.10.58 for ServerName
no listening sockets available, shutting down
Unable to open logs

I'll try to make time to try your patch, but I don't think I'll be able
to get to it right away.

Josh.
