New Install no Apache running

[pcoeman]

Hi all

Debian 8

After new install, HTTP is not running, start it from DA panel: /bin/systemctl start httpd.service >/dev/null 2>&1

Start it manual:

root@seefhoek:/home/patje# systemctl start httpd.service
Job for httpd.service failed. See 'systemctl status httpd.service' and 'journalctl -xn' for details.


root@seefhoek:/usr/local/directadmin/custombuild# systemctl status httpd.service
● httpd.service - The Apache HTTP Server

Hello,

sep 01 01:40:07 seefhoek.171.be httpd[3488]: httpd: Syntax error on line 217 of /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.c...tory

That might be an answer on why your apache does not start.

Run

systemctl -l status httpd.service

to see what file the syntax error is in.
