Are you using php? If you disable it does apache start? Otherwise please
send us asap your config files.

Thanks
Fabio

 After the most recent cron-apt update on testing, apache simply fails to
 start but gives no error reports. /var/run/apache.pid is not deleted. No
 syntax changes or errors in httpd.conf.

 Trying to restart apache complains about existence of the pid file but
 again exits silently.

 apachectl start appears to show a successful start but ps waux shows no
 apache processes.

reassign 235304 php4
stop

Hi Neil,
there are some known problems in php4 at the moment. Are you using
the php4-imap extension? It is known to have some problems and a
workaround is either to disable the extension or to load libapache-mod-ssl
even without any https page. If this is not the case Steven (the php4
maintainer in CC) will ask you more specific information. I am reassigning
this bug to php4 in the meanwhile.

Thanks
Fabio

 Yes. Commenting out the line:
 #LoadModule php4_module /usr/lib/apache/1.3/libphp4.so
 in /etc/apache/modules.conf did allow apache to restart.

 However, 90% of my apache work is done in PHP.
 :-)

 Should I report this as a bug in PHP - or has that been done?
 Is the problem between the latest apache and php known?
 Is there a fix?
