I just installed Custombuild and now can't sdtart httpd. Error is:

Stopping httpd: [FAILED]
Starting httpd: [Wed May 02 16:47:05 2012] [warn] module php5_module is already loaded, skipping
httpd: Syntax error on line 27 of /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf: Could not open configuration file /etc/httpd/conf/extra/httpd-directories.conf: No such file or directory

Can anyone tell me what I need to do?
 
Ok, I did a workaround by commenting out line 27. Is the missing file something I am going to need? Appreciate any feedback!
 
You have to rebuild php or php pages will not work correctly.

Code: 
cd /usr/local/directadmin/custombuild
./build update
./build php d

Thanks. I tried that, and same result. When I removed the comment tag on line 27, httpd would not run. It does appear, however, that PHP on the site is functioning.

Sorry i missread the error line, maybe a rebuild of apache would solve, it is strange that you dont have that file...

You might want to try

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

Note, it's up to you to make a copy of all files in /etc/httpd/conf, as with that command they will be overwritten to defaults.
 
I can try that, but before I do, a question - (please excuse my relative ignorance)

Looking in the /conf/extra/ directory, I find I have both httpd-directories-new.conf and httpd-directories-old.conf files. Are these related to what I am missing, and could I then just change the path on line 27 of httpd.conf?
 
Yes, you probably could do that. But I'd not recommend it. You should create a symlink httpd-directories.conf -> httpd-directories-new.conf (as a symlink is used there by default).
