Hi all,
Whenever I am running the command sudo spi -i httpd then I am getting message that no such package httpd. However on the website https://packages.salixos.org/#! when I am searching for package httpd for 14.1, i486 then it is displaying that the package httpd is available in repository Slackware 14.1 (i486). At this moment I am using the repository http://mirrors.xmission.com/salix/i486/14.1/. So can you please help how to install httpd in such case?

Best Regards ...
Pankaj Kumar

Hi
Have you run the following command before trying to install httpd?
sudo spi -u

Regards

I tried to install httpd on an installation with the same mirror and it worked so its not a mirror problem.
if you run "spi httpd" you should get something like this:

Code: Select all

Available packages:
httpd [Not installed]: httpd (The Apache HTTP Server)

Available SlackBuilds:
apachetop [Not installed]: ApacheTop (top-like display for httpd)
bozohttpd [Not installed]: bozohttpd (simple and lightweight HTTP server)
darkhttpd [Not installed]: darkhttpd (simple and lightweight HTTP server)
goaccess [Not installed]: goaccess (httpd log analyzer)
libmicrohttpd [Not installed]: libmicrohttpd (HTTP server C library)
lighttpd [Not installed]: lighttpd (Light, fast, and secure webserver)
lighttpd2 [Not installed]: lighttpd2 (Light, fast, and secure webserver)
mod_dnssd [Not installed]: mod_dnssd (dns-sd/zeroconf/avahi module for httpd)
thttpd [Not installed]: thttpd (the tiny/turbo/throttling HTTP server)
You can also try "sudo slapt-get -i httpd" to check if its spi that is corrupt.
