Apache Down and Wont Restart

[tellar]

After working for ages without problems everything is still working ispconfig is fine and online but Apache wont start

I have tried the command through ssh

root@server1:/# /etc/init.d/httpd restart
bash: /etc/init.d/httpd: No such file or directory
root@server1:/#

where is httpd ?

Are my sites gone?

HELP!

[Hans]

Please try: /etc/init.d/apache2 restart

[tellar]

have run the command and apache tries to restart.

apache gives the error that allow override is not allowed on line 368 in the virtualhost file

have commented ot this line and in the other files now I get the message that there are no virual hosts
"
[Sun Dec 30 13:46:00 2007] [warn] NameVirtualHost "My IP" has no VirtualHosts"

[tellar]

httpd (no pid file) not running

this message is also being given

apache is running but sites are not available

[till]

please run:

httpd -t

and post the error message.

[tellar]

root@server1:/etc/apache2/vhosts# httpd -t
[Sun Dec 30 17:04:27 2007] [warn] NameVirtualHost 80.69.93.79:80 has no VirtualHosts
Syntax OK


(I have made a new folder /vtmp and copied all files from hosts there then made a change in ispconfig site settings and duplicated the new ispconfighosts file as Vhosts)


there is still access to the sites but apache starts

[tellar]

Ok it works again,

with ispconfig open I deleted the files in /etc/apache2/vhosts

mkdir /vtmp (make a new directory to store the backup files in)

then copied all the files from /etc/apache2/vhosts there

cp Vhosts /vtmp/Vhosts.bak
cp vhosts /vtmp/Vhosts.bak

I deleted the files in /etc/apache2/vhosts

rm Vhosts
rm vhosts

then added # in one of the sites directives in the controll pannel for that site

then removed it

ispconfig writes a new virtual hosts file and it came back online
