Found the following information from trace. bind (4, 0x14002fee0=<2/INET, 80, 0.0.0.0>, 16) = 0 It seems there is an attempt to bind to address 0.0.0.0 instead to the IP address of the machine. /etc/hosts file does contain mapping of name to IP address. -----Original Message----- From: Krist van Besien [mailto:krist.vanbesien@xxxxxxxxx] Sent: Wednesday, January 17, 2007 4:59 AM To: users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: Apache 2.2.4 does not start - no errors On 1/16/07, Jain, Abhay K, INFOT <jainabhay@xxxxxxx> wrote: > We had tried running with trace and last statement seem > to be fork().

When tracing a program you have to make sure it traces child processes too, otherwise you will see what happens after the fork. Which option you need to give to trace on your OS I don't know, so consult the man page. On Solaris I use "truss -f" when tracing problems. The -f option tells truss to follow children too. One possible reason for your problem (I've seen this before) might be the user and group directives in your httpd.conf. The default values apache ships with (-1) is not suitable on some variants of Unix. Edit your httpd.conf and make set the user and group to a real existing user and group on your system. (nobody:nobody if exists will do fine, but I usually create a apache user and www group). Krist -- krist.vanbesien@xxxxxxxxx Bremgarten b.
