Apache can't start with " error resolving localhost ..."

Michel SALAISSep 8 2005 — edited Sep 9 2005

Hi,
I have Oracle 9.2.0.4 installed on a White Box Linux. This installation for some reason shows an Apache problem:
When I try to start Apache then I have an error message stating the following
"date and time [error] OPM: PRIV: error resolving host name localhost"
then a message saying that httpd could not be started.

This error is not added to the log file but displayed instead on the screen. Morever, files with names mm.*.sem and mm.*.mem are created in $ORACLE_HOME/Apache/Apache/logs.

When I try "ping localhost" on this machine I have no problem and the name is correctly resolved!
Can any one please tell me what could it be?
