Cannot start apache 2.4 on newly built centos 7 box.

Log entries, as far as i can tell, doesnt seem to yield much useful information.

/var/log/error_log:
Code:

[Mon Sep 29 08:59:02.398020 2014] [core:notice] [pid 10391] SELinux policy enabled; httpd running as context system_u:system_r:httpd_t:s0

Thinking it may of been an issue w/ SELinux i disabled that and tried restarting apache and still the timeout. I also tried without success. I also tried the same approach with SSL because of the Secession Cache warning. Those 2 log entries being what looked like the culprits were not and am left with not much to work. Any help/suggestions would be very welcomed.

Session cache is easy

SSLSessionCache shmcb:/var/logs/apache2/ssl_gcache_data(512000)

Sure, however SSLSession thing isnt the issue as ive removed ssl.conf and then restart same issue, despite not enabling ssl. ie not being able to start apache successfully.

Then in that case the following link is more applicable:
- http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/programs/apachectl.html
Apparently, the apachectl script can operate in two different modes.
Your environment appears to be set up only for the second.
So for this you would need to use "apachectl restart" or "apachectl
graceful".

sudo /bin/systemctl restart httpd.service

sudo service httpd restart

apachectl restart

all result in timeouts

Idk really why this worked but following the instructions from this post fixed it for me:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=907579

worked. The httpd.service file that installed via yum, was problematic. changing it to:
Code:

[Unit]
Description=The Apache HTTP Server
After=network.target remote-fs.target nss-lookup.target

[Service]
Type=forking
EnvironmentFile=/etc/sysconfig/httpd
ExecStart=/usr/sbin/httpd $OPTIONS -k start
ExecReload=/usr/sbin/httpd $OPTIONS -k graceful
ExecStop=/usr/sbin/httpd $OPTIONS -k graceful-stop
PrivateTmp=true

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target


the old one was:
Code:

[Unit]
Description=The Apache HTTP Server
After=network.target remote-fs.target nss-lookup.target

[Service]
Type=notify
EnvironmentFile=/etc/sysconfig/httpd
ExecStart=/usr/sbin/httpd $OPTIONS -DFOREGROUND
ExecReload=/usr/sbin/httpd $OPTIONS -k graceful
ExecStop=/bin/kill -WINCH ${MAINPID}
# We want systemd to give httpd some time to finish gracefully, but still want
# it to kill httpd after TimeoutStopSec if something went wrong during the
# graceful stop. Normally, Systemd sends SIGTERM signal right after the
# ExecStop, which would kill httpd. We are sending useless SIGCONT here to give
# httpd time to finish.
KillSignal=SIGCONT
PrivateTmp=true

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target


worked. again, idk why. if someone could shed light that'd be fantastic.

Hi,
You can use default service file, it's not a bug. Check ypur config, it's must contein next line:

LoadModule systemd_module modules/mod_systemd.so

This module need for Type=notify, because this type waiting respose from apache about successfuly start service. If you don't want enable this module, you can change Type=notify to Type=simple and it's will be work.

Ypu can find more information in "man systemd"
