URGENT! Apache fail to start, no error show!

[warrence]

Apache fail to start after doing apache update with mcrypt and mhash checked in the option.

configtest shows Syntax OK! no error in /var/log/messages and /etc/httpd/logs/error_log

Please help!!!!

[krprahlad]

Please do following and see if it throws any message

1) /scripts/restartsrv_apache

If that does not throws any error try

2) /scripts/restartsrv apache (without underscore)

This may give you some useful information.

The common reason may be domlog size , you can check the domlog size.

Thanks,

httpd fail to start, please contact sysadmin.


I got this error.

[krprahlad]

Okay so we got error , May be any log file size might have become more than 2GB , you need to remove that log file and then restart APACHE.


You can check it through these commands.

1) /scripts/biglogcheck -v

or ,

find / -size +1000000000c

Please let us know if it does not get solved by this. We will look for other option.

Thanks,

Hello,

Do:

/etc/init.d/httpd restart

look at:

/var/log/messages
/usr/local/apache/logs/error_log
/usr/local/apache/logs/access_log

Check if there is a error in that log files.


If nothing works, reboot your server and try another time.

/scripts/biglogcheck -v .....return nothing

the second one return file which is nothing to do with domlogs.

when restart httpd it said restarted..but actually is not running at all.

configtest return Syntax OK

non of them have log regarding this problem....access_log and error_log stop recording since httpd failed to start.

Try these scripts one by one

/scripts/rebuildnamedconf
/scripts/fixcommonproblems
/scripts/updatenow

and even after these APACHE don't get start , try easyapache and select minimum option in php and see if it gets solved.

try re-compilying without the mcrypt and mhash and see if it will come back. Always make a backup before adding any mods.

i remember when i run apache update in browser, the screen show "cannot open page" on the half way. Could it be the reason why httpd broken?

i tried /upcp but no hope too

[krprahlad]

Did you try /usr/local/apache/bin/apachectl start

Did you finish with "EASYAPACHE"

[warrence]

Did you try /usr/local/apache/bin/apachectl start

Did you finish with "EASYAPACHE"

Invalid command 'Alias', perhaps mis-spelled or defined by a module not included in the server configuration
/usr/local/apache/bin/apachectl start: httpd could not be started

finally i saw some error, but how to solve this?

I think is module problem, seems like httpd cannot find the module path...

i remember i did export LD_LIBRARY_PATH...is there anything going to do with that?

[krprahlad]

Hiii,

Is apache running in server now?

[mohakevin]

I suggest you that you do :

/scripts/easyapache

and recompile the php and apache

Even, i suggest you too that before this you do:

/scripts/upcp --force


This must work for you.

Regards.
