apache22 is no longer starting after recent upgrade. I have been trying to fix this for over a week but got nowhere - thanks in a dvance for any help. I have included some information which may be relevant; Some guidance would be appreciated as I cannot get the web server to run and . It seems that something must have changed with the latest upgrade as there were no changes to the config. Syntax is ok: dns1# /usr/local/sbin/apachectl -t Syntax OK I have rebuilt apache22 but apache does not start as evidenced below: dns1# /usr/local/sbin/apachectl start Apache/2.2.16 mod_ssl/2.2.16 (Pass Phrase Dialog) Some of your private key files are encrypted for security reasons.
