Hey all,
I'm having a little bit of a weird issue on my web host. I was just wondering if anyone's seen anything like this before.
The problem is that you can't seem to restart apache via the stock init script that comes with apache:
[root@beta:~] #service httpd restart Stopping httpd: [FAILED] Starting httpd: [Mon Mar 03 11:21:14 2014] [warn] module php5_module is already loaded, skipping (98)Address already in use: make_sock: could not bind to address [::]:80 (98)Address already in use: make_sock: could not bind to address 0.0.0.0:80http://0.0.0.0/ no listening sockets available, shutting down Unable to open logs [FAILED] [root@beta:~] #
IT complains that apache can't restart because apache is already listening.
So what you have to do in this case is kill it like so:
[root@beta:~] #pgrep httpd 12322 22405 22505 22506 22507 22508 22509 22510 22511 22512 [root@beta:~] #
[root@beta:~] #pkill httpd
And repeat as necessary until you can achieve this:
[root@beta:~] #pgrep httpd [root@beta:~] #
It's a real pain with it being the way it is, because this makes it impossible for puppet to manage this service. I'm mainly just tired of seeing errors in the reports about this! :)
So whaddya think? Have you ever seen this problem before and do you know how to solve this issue?
Thanks, Tim
Are you sure all the instances were started by the stock initscript initially ... it sounds like something is killing or creating apache instances that are in /var/run/httpd/
That normally happens if httpd is started manually by another script or user process rather than the one in /etc/init.d/
