koha installation commands log

I am installing koha18  in debian 9
During the first time of installation
the install was successful though through the staff client only.

http://kohalib.cdc.org:8080 was used to start the web installer

I was referring 

https://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Debian for the installation process. 

which asks to use http://kohalib-intra.cdc.org but this doesnt work

and completed the installation using http://hostname.domain:8080

I got redirected to the login page without being asked for the library name 
and I couldn't login to Koha because of unavailability of default username/password

Then I had to uninstall koha by referring to the steps in 

https://www.scribd.com/document/22452621/Koha-Uninstallation  

When I tried to do a reinstallation , now I cant even start my web-installer
in either of the ways in the first installation steps.

I have attached my /etc/koha/koha-sites.conf file and /etc/hosts file

When I try to use http://cdclib.cdc.org/ or http://cdclib.cdc.org:8080 I get the default apache page only. But in the first installation step I could start the web installer when I use the url http://kohalib.cdc.org:8080 

Content of my /etc/hosts file is as below
----------------------------------------content start
127.0.0.1	localhost
127.0.1.1	kohalib.cdc.org	kohalib

192.168.1.10	cdclib.cdc.org
192.168.1.10	cdclib-intra.cdc.org

Installation questions are better asked on the mailing list as bugs are not read by a lot of people by default and you will have better success there with your question.
Comment 2 Jonathan Druart 2018-12-18 14:57:48 UTC
So, what is the question exactly? I would restart the install from scratch, on a freshly installed debian-based distro.
