I cannot get Web Sharing to turn on.
Ever time I click the check box to turn on Web Sharing, the gray light blinks quick to orange, then turns back to gray. I try it over and over and still it will not turn on. I've read many other support discussions related to this and I have tried many of the "solutions", including:
- Changing the name of my computer, multiple times
- Replacing the existing httpd.conf file with the "original" httpd.conf file
- Commenting out LoadModule fastcgi_module libexec/apache2/mod_fastcgi.so from the httpd.conf file
- Starting apache in the terminal by typing sudo /usr/sbin/apachectl start
- Removing the lines <key>Disabled</key> <true/> from the
/System/Library/LaunchDaemons/org.apache.httpd.plist - Removing old users from the /etc/apache2/users/ directory
Nothing has worked so far. I've redownloaded Lion hoping to be able to use the files contained within the installer package to restore all of the relevent files that might have become corrupted somehow. I haven't done this though because I don't know how.
When I try to start Web Sharing while Console is running I get the following message
