First step on CentOs

Posted by Andrea Campolonghi in apache , centos , railo on April 30, 2009

After deciding to move to Railo I get curious about OS systems and I am trying to set up a test environment using CentOs that looks like the best Enterprise linux distribution now available ( I am very new to linux world so I am possible completely wrong ).

I installed centos 5.3 on a virtual machine and now ?????

I will post my experience and newbie tips like:

STARTING APACHE ON CENTOS

<code class="coldfusion">
START APACHE
/sbin/service httpd start

RESTART APACHE
/sbin/service httpd restart

STOP APACHE
/sbin/service httpd stop

ALL THE OPTIONS
/sbin/service httpd
#will output all the possible methods you can call on httpd service. </code>

More newbie tips on CentOs, up to installing a development environment for railo, in the next future.

    I have played around with a few linux distros for servers and have found centos to be the best one. You can also start and stop the server using /etc/init.d/httpd start

    I agree I am still very young on linux but I find centos quite easy and interesting to use.
