If you run strace when starting apache it might give you an idea of what is going on. Anything in the error logs? Apache needs to be root to bind to any port <1024. Are you running apache on port higher then that? Is your module trying to bind to a port also? --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@httpd.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@httpd.apache.org
