That's the concatenation of two different error messages. Switch your error log temporarily to a file instead of to a piped logger, and make sure everything starts up cleanly. (It looks like you'll have to modify the Group directive.) Then try using a piped logger for the access log, again with a simpler logging mechanism for the error log. > > It doesn't seem to matter what program I use on the other end of the > pipe.
