Hello shivanrathore:

This is an apache module. I do not know if you need it or not. Try commenting it out in your httpd.conf file like this:

#LoadModule access_module modules/mod_access.so

Just look for the mod_access.so in your httpd.conf file and comment it out.

Then restart apache. If you really need this module, then you will need to install it so that apache can load it.

Thanks.

Did you upgrade from 2.0 to 2.2 ?

mod_access has been renamed mod_authz_host. Both provide access controls:

See: http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod...uthz_host.html

You can remove that LoadModule line, or replace mod_access.so with mod_authz_host.so ,
