I installed apache 2.2.4 on Tru64 5.1b. When I start it by entering
"./apachectl start", the return value (#?) is 0. However, running ps shows
that httpd is not running. Nothing is written to error_log, and no error
message appears on the console screen. Does anyone have any suggestions for
debugging the problem?
Start by checking the "User" and "Group" directives in your http.conf,
and make sure they are set to a user and group that exists on your
system ("nobody" for both user and group would probably be allright).
One problem that often hits first time users, is that the default for
"group" is:
Group #-1
Which doesn't work on some Unix systems. When that happens the
symptoms are exactly as you describe.
