you shouldn't put any name that you want, depending on your DNS settings, it will not route traffic correctly.

Hello, I have a question, Do I have to put my hostname in ServerName or I can put any name that I want?

127.0.0.1 localhost
123.123.123.123 hostname.domain.de hostname

The fix is to edit the conf file and add in the ServerName setting (as the error message requests). In other words,

sudo vi /etc/apache2/httpd.conf

by adding the following string:,

# ServerName is to be specified to avoid warning during reload
ServerName MYSERVER

I had the wrong IP address in my /etc/hosts file, removing that fixed it for me.

just go to httpd.conf file

open it and add a new line i.e.

servername your-server-name

save it and restart the httpd service

Hi
uncoment or add following line in httpd.conf

ServerName example dot com :80

In your /etc/hosts file make sure the fully qualified domain name is listed first. i.e.:

127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost

NOT

127.0.0.1 localhost localhost.localdomain

Hi

Please check whether you have the network part configure perfectly in /etc/hosts, /etc/sysconfig/network . You should provided your ip address hostname.domainname hostname in /etc/hosts.
