Yesterday i have removed some users in DA
but today httpd wont restart
when i give the comand
service httpd restart i get

# service httpd restart
Stopping httpd: [FAILED]
Starting httpd: [Mon Apr 26 09:12:25 2004] [warn] module perl_module is already loaded, skipping
fopen: No such file or directory
httpd: could not open document config file /usr/local/directadmin/data/users/clau/httpd.conf

Does anyone knwo how this could happen and how to fix the problem
 
Did you remove them only via the DA web interface? Or did you clean up the user directory by hand afterwards?

To get rid of the error: Go to /etc/httpd/conf and edit the httpd.conf file. Look at the bottom and remove the line of the user you deleted. Then restart the httpd.

Apache will not restart

Hi, I had below to my mail.

The service 'httpd' on server server.server.com is currently down

So, I tried to restart in DA but failed with following information.

The following error has occured

Details
Stopping httpd: [FAILED] Starting httpd: [FAILED]

Then, I logged in SSH, rand service httpd restart which returned.

[root@server root]# service httpd restart
Stopping httpd: [FAILED]
Starting httpd: [FAILED]
[root@server root]#

Any idea why so ? Help will be appreciated.

Hello,

Sun Joo Followup: Although it was fixed before I had a look, the error log showed that the log files were maxed out in size so apache couldn't write to them. That isn't confirmed, but is suspected.

Issue resovled

Hi John,

Yes, it was because of the log file size that reached 2G.

I guess if anybody else has the same problem, please try to remove the log file and see how things go. It worked for me :)

Thanks and cheers.
