apatche error log

[memramic]

I’ve been trying to fix this but I don’t know what’s wrong
This is my error log after starting apatche2 mysql filezilla ftp & mercury mail:
---------------------------------------------------------

I don’t know much about the apache error logs
Any ideas

memramic,

It looks like a syntax error in your httpd.conf. Try running 'apachectl configtest' to find the line number(s).

http://httpd.apache.org/docs/logs.html

will give you some information about how to specify custom log files.

Thanks for your reply
I ran the Syntax test with apache.exe I got "Syntax OK"
I don’t have a file called “apachectl” should I have it?
I’m running Apache/2.0.53
Is there anything else you think it might be?

memramic,

I didn't notice in the above log that you're running Windows. In this case, you won't have apachectl, but it still looks like you're trying to use custom logs.

You should still take a look at the link above for more information about log files.

Wishdiak,

I took out every thing to do with custom error logs But the error logs never changed
Then I downloaded apache installer and got the same errors after installing it
With out changing anything so I went back and redid the “httpd.conf” file
But I again got the same old error and again when back to my old config
I also looked in all my other config files for mysql

 

[memramic]

do you think the crit error has something to do with the
error log setup?

 

[memramic]

i took a look around the net and all i got was this
--------------------------------------
messages:
unable to replace stderr with error_log
unable to replace stderr with /dev/null
--------------------------------------
+line file link to module-document:
