Error with logs and listening





------- Additional Comments From michael.schroepl@telekurs.com  2003-07-09 13:35 -------
The error message looks like this:

/apache/2.0.46/bin (root/sperling) ./apachectl start
no listening sockets available, shutting down
Unable to open logs

In my case, the cause was just what the message told me: I seem not to have
specified any "Listen:" directive Apache could make use of.

Actually, I _did_ specify a "Listen 443" (because I meant to run a HTTPS server
only) but my SSL configuration was incomplete ... when I added some other port
by, say, "Listen 8046", the problem vanished and Apache was able to server HTTP.

It just looks strange that Apache couldn't open the log files where I'd have
expected to find some more detailed message.
