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]

That's not normal. It should say [OK] there.

So what you have to do in this case is kill it like so:

It is supposed to be killing the pid found in /var/run/httpd/httpd.pid. Can you tell why that doesn't work? You might get a hint from: sh -x /etc/init.d/httpd restart
