|
|
I ran an emerge apache and it appeared to install fine with no problems. When I go to run it this is all I get.
| Code: |
server / # /usr/sbin/apache2ctl start
* Starting apache2 ... [ !! ]
server / #
|
when I check the status I get
| Code: |
server / # /usr/sbin/apache2ctl status
* status: stopped
server / #
|

Why aren't you using the start/stop script /etc/init.d/apache2?
And have you checked apache's log files for errors? _________________ Please add [solved] to the initial post's subject line if you feel your problem is resolved. Help answer the unanswered

only because Apache suggests using the former. I don't have a preference one way or another. I get the same error either way.

Nevermind. Followed a suggestion on http://gentoo-wiki.com/Apache2_Install after checking the error log and all is gravy. Thanks for the help
