Port forwarding to 5003 didn't work ... And Firewalls are currently off. Any suggestions?

Thanks again Steven. I'll try that on Monday though I'm still interested in making the Web Server work so I can do IWP. Any ideas for the Apache?

Steven, thanks for the quick reply. I've been VPNing into the server in order to actually access the filemaker file via Remote. In this case I'm opening FM Pro on my laptop, and once VPN'd in, will Access Remote Folder as if I was on the LAN at the office. At this point there's no other way that I know of to gain access to the file. Thank you for any and all help with this!

We have a Mac Mini OS X 10.6 that I'm trying to run Filemaker Server Advanced 11 and have been having one heck of a time trying to get the Web Server Deployed. I'm able to "Skip this step and select a server later" and access the database through Remote Filemaker once VPN'd into the server, but in trying to complete the Web Server Deployment it sees that Apache is running, but we're unable to actually get FMSA to complete the process. It keeps retuning "Web Server Test Failed. Return Code = -1" Things we've tried with Filemaker customer support (after paying $45) ... 1. Of course I've also tried to manually input the local IP address into the error reporting box to no avail. Same error. 2. So we reverted back to the default httpd.config file in Apache2 itself and no help. 3. Simply of course, turning off the web and turning it on again in Server Admin within OS X Server didn't of course yield any fruit. Also turning Apache off and starting it again in Terminal to the same results. 4. I've tried to search for the OSX Server Apache 2 file completely to replace what's installed in the /etc of my Mac Mini but can't find anything that might help. 5. Testing the ports to see if there was a conflict. Basically, in looking it appears that port 80 isn't 'listening' on Apache. 6. Turning off the IPV6 in System Preferences... no help 7. Turning off VPN for L2TP ... no help 8. Also tried just simply going to http://localhost and 127.0.0.1 just to find the Apache home page locally and shows "Safari can't connect to the server" error page. Ideas? I'll happily try just about anything at this point.
