When you are trying to restart your apache2 service by inserting command sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart , then you got the following error message:

Could not determine the server’s fully qualified domain name, using 127.0.0.1 for ServerName

To fix this problem, all you have to do is following instructions as follows:

1. Open your system httpd.conf file by running:

   sudo vi /etc/apache2/httpd.conf

   in your terminal, then enter a line for ServerName. For Example:

   ServerName ryawww.myvaio.com

   after all, don’t forget to make sure you save all the changes you have made to the file.

2. Open your system hosts file by running:

   sudo vi /etc/hosts

   in your terminal, then in the line which consists 127.0.0.1 localhost, you need to add:

   127.0.0.1 localhost.myvaio localhost ryawww.myvaio.com

   after all, don’t forget to make sure you save all the changes you have made to the file.

Try to restart your apache2 service again.

Good Luck
