Apache will not start

[blacksnake]

Hi All
Back with another problem
Apache will not start was running but now it will not start

Have tried starting form the command line and also from inside webmin with command shell also rebooted the server in the hope apache would start But no luck

error log entries
--------------------------------------
[Mon Mar 11 00:38:17 2002] [error] [client 202.98.130.42] Client sent malformed Host header
[Mon Mar 11 04:02:10 2002] [warn] child process 30181 did not exit, sending another SIGHUP
[Mon Mar 11 04:02:12 2002] [notice] SIGHUP received. Attempting to restart
---------------------------------------
Command Gives Starting httpd: [Failed] as does webmin

Anyone any ideas
Any help would be greatly appreciated

Hi,

Is there maybe a syntax error in httpd.conf ? Have you tested with :

# /usr/local/apache/bin/httpd -t

or

# /usr/sbin/httpd -t

(depending where your httpd binary is)

You should just get :

Syntax OK

Otherwise try a 'killall' and restart :

# killall -9 httpd

and

# /etc/rc.d/init.d/httpd restart

or

# /usr/local/apache/bin/apachectl start



Hope this helps
