Re: apache2 config test failed

Line 219 of your .conf file reads "IncludeOptional sites-enabled/*.conf”

that’s where it starts loading the sites you have configured and that’s where it is failing. So start looking for errors on line 32 on one of your enabled-sites conf files and not for an error in your apache2.conf which looks perfectly bog standard and fine to me.

Either that or disable all sites, and enabled them one by one doing an “apache2ctl configtest” each time and you will find the culprit

Hope you come right.
Cheers ;)

Subject:  apache2 config test failed

Hi,

Apache fails to start on a Ubuntu 16.04   Virtual Machine.

The error says  a syntax error however when I compare a working apache2.conf to a non working apache2.conf  version I can see that both configs are identical.


The error says a syntax error :

ERROR:

I tried replacing  the non working apache2 folder  with a working one but the error still persists.
Is the problem being caused somewhere else ?

How can I resolve this issue ?

Thanks,

Dan
