[Koha] installation finished but koha does not appear on my browser

21 Apr 2006

      Hello,
i finally went through the koha installer.pl without any trouble, but 
now i can't see what to do next. I told Mozilla the following: 
http://localhost:80/opac
http://localhost:8080/intranet

the same without '80' or '8080', which was very succesful when i had 
koha installed on windowsxp 

and http://usr/local/koha/cgi-bin/opac/mainpage.pl 
(the path may not be quite exact, but you probably get the idea) 
and i tried to simply open the mainpage.pl files directly with mozilla.
Mozilla then asks me which program it should use to open the .pl file...

after doing some research in the mailinglist-archives, i guess it may 
be a problem with the paths, hosts or similar, set in the .conf files. 

my 
etc/koha.conf reads as follows

   database=Koha
   hostname=localhost
   user=kohaadmin
   pass=hidden
   intranetdir=/usr/local/koha/intranet
   opacdir=/usr/local/koha/opac
   kohalogdir=/usr/local/koha/log
   kohaversion=2.2.5
   httpduser=keuch
   intrahtdocs=/usr/local/koha/intranet/htdocs/intranet-tmpl
   opachtdocs=/usr/local/koha/opac/htdocs/opac-tmpl

koha.httpd.conf:

   # The best way to do that depends on your site setup.
   # Some like an Include adding to /etc/apache/httpd.conf

   # If you want to use NameVirtualHost'ing (using two names on one ip

I hope this is a simple problem and someone can tell me what to do, i 
am grateful in advance. 

I use debian 3.1 sarge, and i can remeber that during the debian setup 
i encountered a message saying "your dhcp-network can't be 
autoconfigured" and me choosing "leave it unconfigured" from some 
options. Maybe a problem here?
