[users@httpd] starting Apache

[Muhannad Tamemi <mu...@accessme.com>]

Dear Sir ,

as i told you , i installed apache 2.0.46 on my sun solaries 7 server and i installed it in /usr/local/apache2 dir .
i did not edit that much to the httpd.conf file .

i started apache :

$ usr/local/apache2/bin/apachectl start

but when i check on server itself , i can not see the apache test page .
i excuted ( ps -ef|grep httpd ) and get no output !!

i checked error log and saw the following error :

[Mon Jun 23 07:09:39 2003] [alert] Child 11845 returned a Fatal error...
Apache is exiting!
[Mon Jun 23 07:09:39 2003] [alert] (22)Invalid argument: setgid: unable to set g
roup id to Group 4294967295

Any help please .
Thanks

This line speaks for it self: 4294967295 = 0xffffffff = -1
You have your Apache set to an invalid group. Just read the documentation on
the Group directive carefully, and you should be fine:
http://httpd.apache.org/docs-2.0/mod/mpm_common.html#group
