Alright... heres the story. I reinstalled apache, and it works. It turns
out that the reason it wont start is my httpd.conf, i never guessed that
because running a "/etc/init.d/httpd" configtest gives me "Syntax OK"..?
I have made a diff on the original httpd.conf and my problematic
version, and attached it to this mail. I hope one of you guys can help
me out here, why wont apache start with this httpd.conf? Is it because
of the www user maybe (even though its a bit oftopic)?
Note: in the diff file, the first is the original, directly followed by
my httpd.conf

Great.
ok). However now it only kills apache when i do a restart, it does never
print out "Starting httpd" when running a restart, although if i run
start it works???
Someone else suggested a sleep between the stop and start.
Ok i agree on reinstalling apache, but how can i do this, and will it
owerwrite my httpd.conf?
Depends on the RPM command you use. I think there is a freshen option,
but if it was my system, I'd backup the files I cared about, then remove
and re-install apache.
So I'd suggest:
cp /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf $HOME/saved_httpd.conf
cp **ANYTHING ELSE YOU CHANGED** **SOMEWHERE SAFE**
rpm -e httpd
yum install httpd
Then put back the files you backed up.
Please don't try any of this if you are not confident with backing up
any of your apache content or configuration.
Cheers, Ben
