[users@httpd] Trouble starting apache
Hi all. Im having an issue starting apache on my sun solaris 7 server.
Install went OK it seems but Im getting an error in the logs. when I
./apachectl start it seems to do it without giving me an error on the
console, but the server doesnt actually start. Checking the logs reveals:
[notice] Digest: generating secret for digest authentication...
[crit] (2) no such file or directory; Digest: drror generating secret:
no such file or directory
Configuration Failed
Any ideas where things are going bad?
Thanks!
Bob

Thanks Thomas, great idea.
Being an apache semi-newbie, I assume I take that out of httpd.conf?

Set the Group directive in httpd.conf to a valid group for your system.

Thank guys. I found LoadModule auth_digest_module
modules/mod_auth_digest.so and commented it out, when I start it now,
I get:

You might also look in the /etc/httpd/conf.d folder for an ssl.conf file, as
it will likely be loaded automatically when Apache starts; check to see if
there is one, and rename it something like ssl.con_f. or ssl.conf.orig.

Right idea, wrong module. The problem is mod_auth_digest. If you have a
LoadModule directive for that module, just comment it out.

Just my two cents...
It looks like the directory where Apache is trying to build its 'secret for
digest authentication' does not exist.
I would try bringing Apache up in non-SSL first, and see if it works w/o
SSL, after which, you can rule out basic configuration issue when you start
troubleshooting the SSL config.
