[OPEN-ILS-DEV] apache2 could not start - failed

[Bill Erickson]

Grace,

I don't see anything noticeably wrong with your configs, but I have some
other suggestions to pass along.

Debian does some work up front to (hopefully) make Apache easier to manage.
For example, instead of manually loading the Apache modules inside your
httpd.conf file, you can create symlinks from /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/ to
the appropriate files residing in /etc/apache2/mods-available/.  Below is
what I do from within the mods-enabled directory:

ln -s ../mods-available/cache.load
ln -s ../mods-available/deflate.load
ln -s ../mods-available/disk_cache.load
ln -s ../mods-available/expires.load
ln -s ../mods-available/include.load
ln -s ../mods-available/proxy.load
ln -s ../mods-available/proxy_http.load
ln -s ../mods-available/rewrite.load
ln -s ../mods-available/ssl.load
ln -s ../mods-available/ssl.conf


Debian does something similar for virtual hosts as well.  I put
evergreen_vhost.conf and evergreen_vhost_ssl.conf in
/etc/apache2/sites-available/ and create symlinks from the sites-enabled
directory.  There should be a "default" site already linked in.

After you do all of that, httpd.conf should only contain the custom modules
installed by the Evergreen install process:

oadModule osrf_json_gateway_module
/usr/lib/apache2/modules/osrf_json_gateway.so
LoadModule xmlent_module      /usr/lib/apache2/modules/mod_xmlent.so


Like I said, the config files you sent seem fine, but I wonder if Debian is
accidentally loading configs more than once with all of it's built-in
magic.  You may also want to remove the link from sites-enabled to
sites-available/default, since it's not strictly necessary.
