Out of the blue I suddenly get this error when restarting apache with ssl

/etc/init.d/httpd: line 83: 2126 File size limit exceeded(core dumped) $HTTPD -DSSL

I couldn't find anything on the forum pertaining to this.

This happened overnight

Check both the size of the apache logs and of domlogs and make sure none of them is at or over 2GB in size. IF they are, rename them out of the way and restart apache.

Yes nothing is over 50MB. I forgot to mention that

/var/log
apache logs, all way below even 500MB

Domain log - fixed

Completely forgot those

You should also check

/var/log/domainname.com

or similar.

This logfile is especially generated for SSL hosts.

No idea why this log gets not split up like other logs
within the /var/log directory e.g.

kernel
kernel.1
kernel.2

You have to setup log rotation for those manually in logrotate as cPanel doesn't configure logrotate itself.
