rcapache2 start -fail

have you changed the log files in virtual host configuration?

got to the directory where your apache logs are located and type

Code:

ls -lah

check which file was last changed. check if you find some infos there. additionally you should check /var/log/messages and /var/log/syslog

regards,

It seems that the apache logs are written in rcapache2.out.
So what is the output of:

Code:

tail /var/log/apache2/rcapache2.out

Syntax OK

i think reinstalling apache will be my solution for this problem, need apache. ill do some more research and then reinstall, if that does not work i'll just reformat.

seems to unsolvable
