Well, we're getting kind of distro-specific here, but what if you try starting Apache via the distro's initscript script (/etc/init.d/httpd start). Furthermore, are there any special options you put in /etc/sysconfig/httpd, /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf or the configfiles in /etc/httpd/conf.d/ ? -- Riemer Palstra Amsterdam, The Netherlands riemer@xxxxxxxxxxx http://www.palstra.com/ --------------------------------------------------------------------- The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.
