Apache tricks

• Could not reliably determine the server's fully qualified domain name
  
  • sudo vim /etc/apache2/httpd.conf
    
    • Add this line: "ServerName localhost"
  • sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart
• Change request by client:
• sudo vim /etc/apache2/apache2.conf
• MaxClients your-request-number
