Apache is stopped and cannot restarted

[thestroller]

Hello all,

My server configuration is: AMD Athlon, 1GB RAM, 80GB HDD, FreeBSD 4.11. These days, I found that Apache in my server is not stable. There are a lot of down times. Here are the details:

There are a lot of lines in dmesg.boot log file:
pid 48882 (httpd), uid 0: exited on signal 11 (core dumped)
pid 48901 (httpd), uid 0: exited on signal 11 (core dumped)

All mbuf clusters exhausted, please see tuning(7).

In Apache error log:
[Tue Dec 20 01:05:01 2005] [warn] pid file /var/run/httpd.pid overwritten -- Unclean shutdown of previous Apache run?

[Tue Dec 20 01:05:11 2005] [warn] pid file /var/run/httpd.pid overwritten -- Unclean shutdown of previous Apache run?

[Tue Dec 20 01:06:11 2005] [warn] pid file /var/run/httpd.pid overwritten -- Unclean shutdown of previous Apache run?

All other services are running fine, except Apache. I’d did a graceful restart, but no effects. I’d did deleted the httpd.pid and restart, but no effects.

Please help me to solve this problem.

What happens if you try logging in with ssh and restart apache with:
/sbin/service httpd restart

of do a configtest:
service httpd configtest

Thanks you.

I am also facing the same problem

The direct admin's server information section says that Apache 2.0.55 is stopped.

When I do /sbin/service httpd restart, I get the following error:

$ /sbin/service httpd configtest
Warning: SuexecUserGroup directive requires SUEXEC wrapper.
Syntax error on line 25 of /etc/httpd/conf/ips.conf:
SSLCertificateKeyFile: file '/etc/httpd/conf/ssl.key/server.key' does not exist or is empty


I GET THE SAME ERROR when I do /sbin/service httpd configtest

Any help is greatly appreciated. The Uname -a gives the following info:
