AH00016 configuration failed

Hi,

I use DirectAdmin on CentOS 7.

Last night my HTTPD stopped working. I've tried to rebuild it but it doesn't work. Reboot several times without any luck.

AH00016: Configuration Failed

Is there anybody who could help?

It can be a couple of things.
First try this:

apache2ctl configtest

If the syntax is OK, try this:

cd /usr/local/directadmin/custombuild && ./build rewrite_confs

If the problem still persists, you might check if you had enough space in your temp dir like this:

df -i /var/tmp

If you have enough space there, you probably are running into an SSL issue. You could try to find this via the strace command, there are several examples to be found on the internet with Google.

If you are using Letsencrypt, you could also try to generate a new Letsencrypt certificat for your server.
