Apache prob (fedora vserver)

[xdamnx]

Hiho @ all,

just upgraded my vserver to fedora.
edited something in the httpd.conf
and wanted to restart httpd with "apachectl restart", nothing happend, so i killed the processes.

now i get following error when trying to start the daemon again:

Starting httpd: /usr/sbin/httpd: relocation error: /usr/sbin/httpd: undefined symbol: apr_socket_sendfile
[FAILED]


as i'm new to fedora and it's bugs, i hope to find some help here.

thx in advance,

xdamnx

I am not familiar with vserver; however I don't think a direct upgrade from vserver to fedora is a good option. It may be better to start from scratch.

Also in fedora to start apache you would use "/sbin/service httpd start" or /etc/rc.d/init.d/httpd start.

the fedora on my vserver is a "working" image from the serverprovider.

anyway, i tried the commands you mentioned, but with the same resul

# /sbin/service httpd start
Starting httpd: /usr/sbin/httpd: relocation error: /usr/sbin/httpd: undefined symbol: apr_socket_sendfile
[FAILED]

I did find out that apr_socket_sendfile is a part of the apache portable network routines.

What kernel version and httpd (apache) version are you running? The Fedora one? Apparently vserver has some kind of kernel patch.

I would advise backing up and then reinstalling apache. If apache can't find the apache portable runtime, it doesn't work.

Did it work before this edit of httpd.conf?

[xdamnx]

yes apache did work, but i commented out my stuff and the error remains...

i've got httpd 2.0.48-1.2 installed,
but the strange thing is that i couldn't shut down apache properly from the beginning, therefore i did a "killall httpd" and httpd won't start again :/

do you know to which package this portable network stuff belongs ?
because i reinstalled apache with apt but nothing changed :(
