Question

Site can't be changes reached

Posted August 17, 2020 572 views
Apache

My site accidentally down and shows error in apache/error_log file like this "AH00169: caught SIGTERM, shutting down".

And I’m trying restart apache show error. And checking the apache status shows like this:

Aug 17 06:43:41 DIB-Web-Dev-Server systemd[1]: Starting The Apache HTTP Server...
Aug 17 06:43:41 DIB-Web-Dev-Server apachectl[29649]: apache2: Syntax error on line 226 of /etc/apache2/apache2.conf: Could not open configuration file
Aug 17 06:43:41 DIB-Web-Dev-Server apachectl[29649]: Action 'start' failed.
Aug 17 06:43:41 DIB-Web-Dev-Server apachectl[29649]: The Apache error log may have more information.
Aug 17 06:43:41 DIB-Web-Dev-Server systemd[1]: apache2.service: Control process exited, code=exited status=1

Aug 17 06:43:41 DIB-Web-Dev-Server systemd[1]: Failed to start The Apache HTTP Server.

I can’t find the issue. Please help me. Earlier it was working for me.

Hi there @alanj,

As far as I can see from the output that you’ve shared, it looks like that the problem is on line 226 in /etc/apache2/apache2.conf.

I would recommend checking the /etc/apache2/apache2.conf file on line 226 for more information.

Feel free to share the line here as well so I could try to further advise you!

Regards,
Bobby

    Hi @bobbyiliev thanks for the reply.

    Include /etc/phpmyadmin/apache.conf //this is line 226

    But earlier phpmyadmin was uninstalled.But that time also working fine for me.

      Hi there @alanj,

      Ah I see, yes this would explain the problem then.

      You need to either delete that line or comment it out by adding a # sign at the beginning of the line.

      Then run another config test:

      • sudo apachectl -t

      And if you get Syntax OK restart Apache:

      • sudo systemctl restart apache2

      Let me know how it goes!
      Regards,
      Bobby
