Hi All,

I have done the same isntalled all the xymon files on /var/www/html

but even then i am unable to restart the apache server

the Error is

[root@sppubld01 conf]# service httpd start
Starting httpd: Syntax error on line 14 of /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf:
Invalid command 'Alias', perhaps misspelled or defined by a module not included in the server configuration
                                                           [FAILED]
[root@sppubld01 conf]#
 

my http.conf file is also attached.

If you installed in /root I STRONGLY advise starting from scratch (it only takes a minute) and installing with a new user and in that new user's home dir.

Probably true.  It's quite likely not a good idea to install under
/root.  Would suggest you perhaps made a new user account (xymon), with
a home directory, say /home/xymon, and installed there.

Also, your specific error is because you do not have the 'alias' module
in your Apache configuration.  Check /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf for
something like:
LoadModule alias_module modules/mod_alias.so
This should be there and not be commented out.
