The http.conf is:

I guess you have tried to up/down-grade apache/php ??

I guess you have tried to up/down-grade apache/php ??

Problem is that apache configuration was changed: probabilly he have re-compiled apache with suPHP support instead of php with cli.

Error is in the virtual host that have "php_admin_flag": he must remove them

The problem was solved by the directadmin support team

They said

Hello,

I renamed your options.conf to be options.conf.moved, ran:
./build update
./build rewrite_confs

and apache started up.
There may be differences in what you had set and what is currently set in the options.conf, but I'll let you re-adjust as needed.

Thank you directadmin support team!!!

I also had the same problem with Apache not restarting after it's nightly tally run. The only recent work that was done on the server was a custombuild './build all' vs. just './build update_versions' and ended up cancelling out of the './build all' and maybe that left something partially configured.

I did what DA Support did, only copied back the options.conf because of some custom configs, reran './build rewrite_confs' and Apache started up ok and everything appears to be working good now.

Thanks DA Folks!
