Syntax Errors Reported In  httpd.conf

           Summary: Syntax Errors Reported In  httpd.conf
           Product: Apache httpd-1.3
           Version: 1.3.24
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: Other
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Blocker
          Priority: Other
         Component: Other

I'm having a problem starting apache. It is reporting syntax errors in 
httpd.conf. Everything except a comment line is reported as a syntax error:

Syntax error on line 4 of /usr/internet/apache/conf/httpd.conf:
Invalid command '
', perhaps mis-spelled or defined by a module not included in the server configu
ration
/etc/apache start: httpd could not be started


Line 4 happens to be a blank line. When a remove all blank lines then I get the 
same error on the first valid line in the config file. If I comment out that 
line I'll get it on the next config line...


I am running this on SCO OpenServer 5.0.6. I compiled with gcc 2.95.2 using 
make 3.79. This has been compiled successfully on other 5.0.6 systems however 
they were regular Intel pentium 4 processors. This machine happens to be the 
Xeon processor class for IBM's new server line.

MySQL, PHP and other applications have compiled and executed fine. I just can't 
seem to get Apache to work. There were no errors during compile and after 
installing I get the "You have successfully ....." banner. No errors at all.

Let me know if you need any additional information.

Thanks,

Dean
