>From the phpMyAdmin help forum a gentleman has posted that the problem
may well be with apache and advised that I insert "AddType
application/x-httpd-php .php .php3"
to the httpd.conf which I have now done

He also suggested I turn off SELinux and I did so and when I next
started apachectl this happened ....

# /usr/sbin/apachectl start
[Tue Mar 15 00:18:41 2005] [warn] The Alias directive in
/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.c onf at line 493 will probably never match
because it overlaps an earlier AliasMa tch.
(98)Address already in use: make_sock: could not bind to address [::]:443
no listening sockets available, shutting down
Unable to open logs

what does it mean? I thought the server was preconfigured to listening port 80
