Re: apache won't start although no errors
Hi,
man strace ?
I have the same problem with apache. What do I look for in the strace?
-----------------
Here is the tail end of the output:
If I run "sudo strace /etc/init.d/apache restart", I get:
...

[WIFEXITED(s) && WEXITSTATUS(s) == 0], 0) = 18147

--- SIGCHLD (Child exited) @ 0 (0) ---
waitpid(-1, 0xbffff31c, WNOHANG) = -1 ECHILD (No child processes)
sigreturn() = ? (mask now [])
rt_sigaction(SIGINT, {SIG_DFL}, {0x8075fc0, [], SA_RESTORER,
0x400944a8}, 8) = 0
rt_sigprocmask(SIG_BLOCK, NULL, [], 8) = 0
read(255, "\nif [ $? -eq 0 ]; then\n\techo .\n\t"..., 2295) = 71
rt_sigprocmask(SIG_BLOCK, NULL, [], 8) = 0
rt_sigprocmask(SIG_BLOCK, NULL, [], 8) = 0
rt_sigprocmask(SIG_SETMASK, [], NULL, 8) = 0
write(1, ".\n", 2.
) = 2
rt_sigprocmask(SIG_SETMASK, [], NULL, 8) = 0
exit_group(0) = ?

But if I run,
"sudo strace apachectl restart", I get
