This looks like a simple fix to me but I'm a few hours into it and getting no where. I'm a little new to this, so please bare with me. It looks to me as if it needs a <limit> directive but it fails every time I try to add anything...any help would be much appreciated.

Initial configuration generation failed with the following message:

Code:
Configuration problem detected on line 82 of file /usr/local/apache/conf/httpd.conf.work.Vb7iYOORLG5M7B1G: <Limit> directive requires additional arguments

--- /usr/local/apache/conf/httpd.conf.work.Vb7iYOORLG5M7B1G ---

Rebuilding configuration without any local modifications.

Built /usr/local/apache/conf/httpd.conf OK

It appears you've already been customizing things if I was to guess.

nginx maybe?

Remove the changes you've made and rebuild Apache with the default profile to get you going again.

I removed nginxadmin and can't remember any changes I've made. I only noticed it wouldn't recompile after looking in Apache Config because a pci audit was saying File ETag wasn't "none" and I knew it was set to none. Here's the error after uninstalling nginx admin, fwiw...

I put a ticket in and they removed the custom templates and it rebuilt without issue. Not sure what I did to cause it to not work but thank you again for the excellent support. Not the first time you guys rescued me. : )

Hello,

I am happy to see the issue was resolved after removing the custom templates that were leftover from your Nginx configuration. Thank you for updating us with the outcome.
