I am unable to connect to localhost after installing Apache. I checked with the following URLs: https//localhost , https//127.0.1.1 and https//127.0.1.1

Below is the log message I received and my IP address information:

avinash@ubuntu:/etc/init.d$ sudo service apache2 restart
[sudo] password for avinash:

    How about http://localhost? Note the ':' in the URL.

Reset to default

try using http:// for localhost instead of https:// 

http://localhost

https:// is for secure servers also the default local ip address is 127.0.0.1 not 127.0.1.1

Use the below URL:

http://localhost

Also add the below line to your apache2.conf file at /etc/apache2

ServerName localhost

The above will suppress the warning
