My website stops working when I resized my droplets? I already tried to remove/disable the domain but I still can’t access the IP.
Although I can access the IP via putty.

Hi @conxbjordan
Did you resize up or down? Can you have a look in the Apache error log:
sudo tail -30 /var/log/apache/error.log
If you run the following command, does it list your IP - if yes, then your domain is working - it’s probably just Apache that isn’t running:
dig YourDomain.com A
Hi @hansen Thanks for replying.
I resize up my droplets.
I tried sudo tail -30 /var/log/apache/error.log but no such file or directory.
Tried the dig. It does show my IP. I already did apachectl restart it seems apache is running.
I’ve seen the error logs here it is:

Hmmm. Can you go and look in your Apache configuration. You’ve probably changed the default error log location. Have a look in /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/ or /etc/apache2/httpd.conf.
On Ubuntu there’s a really simple command that lists all services listening on the interfaces, but I don’t know the similar command for CentOS:
sudo lsof -iTCP -sTCP:LISTEN -P
The only command I know, requires that you specify the port number:
sudo fuser -v -n tcp 80
This should output something about Apache. But you can also just run the
sudo apachectl status
By default CentOS comes with the firewall enabled - could that be the reason why you’re not getting thru to Apache?
sudo iptables -L
