Thanks for your help. Looks like it was a failed install although there were no errors listed. Not only was
"mod_authz_core" not loaded, that library was not not even installed.

The Require directive is not included in the core module and which additional modules are loaded is controlled either by your distro or by your choices during build. I found this out while locking down a web server to the minimal needed modules.
You can check with either httpd -M or apachectl -M OR by checking your config files.
Sometimes apachectl configtest will give you a more insightful error, but it doesn't test for everything that could go wrong on startup so a successful test isn't ALWAYS a guarantee of a running system, but I've gotten into the habit of running it before a start or restart.

I've installed Apache-2.4.46 on a Raspberry Pi running FreeBSD 12.1 to use as an Intranet website. When I try to start the server after a doing basic config setup I get the following message:
"Syntax error on line 236 of /usr/local/etc/apache24/httpd.conf:
Invalid command 'Require', perhaps misspelled or defined by a module not included in the server configuration"
As "require" appears to be a standard line command in the httpd.conf file I can't imagine why I would get that error message. I haven't been able to find anything in the FAQ nor Docs so far and I'm running out of ideas.
Any pointers would be much appreciated.
