apache broke after mysql install

spooge · 04-20-2009, 02:07 PM

After years of flawless service of my Redhat9 server, I decided to upgrade with Slack 12.2.( I could go on why I Slack)

New 12.2 install with original packages.

I had Apache running fine. Tested, and all is well...
I moved on to Mysql... All is good, it works. Starts at reboot.
Then I notice Apache stopped starting.

To test httpd.conf and httpd-vhosts.conf edits, I would use

Code:

/usr/sbin/apachectl restart|start

Now it won't start with this command.

no result(s) for

Code:

ps -A | grep apache

Stopped Mysql, and tried to start apache, and still nothing.

Anyone have/had this problem? Any suggestions?

Thanks All!

Edit:

checked error.log

Code:

(EAI 2)Name or service not known: mod_unique_id: unable to find IPv4 address of "myhostname"
Configuration Failed

Edit #2
Hmm not sure why apache stopped in the first place. It worked earlier.
Edited /etc/hosts.
from

Code:

192.168.1.5hostname.com

to

Code:

192.168.1.5hostname

I'm assuming that I changed this(previous day) and mmaybe a reboot took affect and killed it?

it works

Everyone can quit searching now. Thanks

To start apache under Slack (12.1 - I think 12.2 is same)

as root

Code:

/etc/rc.d/rc.httpd start

To make it start at boot just make that executable...

Code:

chmod 755 /etc/rc.d/rc.httpd
