Apache Help

Moldfish

I run apechectl start and it just gives me this:

[sites@localhost bin]$ ./apachectl start
(13)Permission denied: make_sock: could not bind to address 0.0.0.0:80
no listening sockets available, shutting down
Unable to open logs

Ive tried commenting out Listen 80 and changing it to my IP:80 but when I comment it out it just says the bottom half and still exits.

This is getting annoying. what do I do???

What OS? Linux, okay, but what flavor?

ForgotMyPass

RedHat flavor >_>

Sorry but saying that makes me feel too nerdy...

LordShryku

so can you start it through init.d?

And trust me....most of us long term users are pretty nerdy ...

I dont see any init.d files and im not very experienced with linux so uhh... Where?

LordShryku

try this

cd /etc/init.d
./httpd start

Moldfish

[sites@localhost init.d]$ ./httpd start
Starting httpd: Syntax error on line 116 of /etc/httpd/conf.d/ssl.conf:
SSLCertificateFile: file '/etc/httpd/conf/ssl.crt/server.crt' does not exist or
is empty

[sites@localhost init.d]$

LordShryku

heh...you gonna change your name to FoundMyPass now?

So you have SSL enabled. Do you need that? If so, it's saying that it can't find your certificate.

ForgotMyPass

Actually I am posting on 2 computers so I havent found my pass >_>

And I dont know what that SSL stuff is but I dont like it. I dont like it at all.

LordShryku

Well then, I suggest going through ssl.conf and turning that off. Then you should be able to start Apache through init.d
