Can anyone explain this error: Apache 2.0.52 win on an XP laptop. PHP
4.3.9.

localhost: Unable to complete network request to host "localhost". Failed to
locate host machine. Undefined service gds_db/tcp.

I have checked php.ini and apache.conf and they are correctly configured..

Is this is a networking issue or a php issue?

Can you ping localhost? (If not, no entry in hosts file)

What happens if you substitute 127.0.0.1 for localhost?

Still same error: 127.0.0.1: Unable to complete network request to host
"127.0.0.1". Failed to locate host machine. Undefined service gds_db/tcp.

I have the entry for gds_db in my services file also.
