Apache error: Unable to Open Logs

srk. · 12-07-2009, 12:28 PM

I had started the apache after adding some new domains
Error log i am getting as "Unable to open logs"
While giving apache2ctl status i am getting as "ELinks: Connection refused"

I think this may be related to File Handlers. But couldn't confirm.

Can anyone help me in fixing this.

Hi,

I think it's a permissions issue.
Make sure that the apache user can write to the directory where you have configured for the logs of the new vhosts.

Cheers

I have checked and the permissions are fine.

Is there anything written in the error_log?
If you think it's a File Handlers problem check this

This reason for this error is low number of file descriptors. Check the current limit of file descriptors in the file /proc/sys/fs/file-max:
