jhsachs Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 I'm installing HTTD v2.2.17 in a new system partition on my hard disk. Out of the box, the installation works. However, when I try to start it with a copy of my primary partition's httpd.conf, the installation fails to start. The failing configuration should be identical to the working one. I installed HTTPD at the same pathname, used the same config parameters, and refer to a PHP directory in the same place. The document directory is on the data disk, which is the same disk in both cases. All I get is an error box that says "The requested options has failed." Nothing is recorded in the error log. httpd.conf defines several subdomains that have their own error logs, but nothing is recorded in those either, and when I comment out the error log definitions, still nothing is recorded in Apache's own error log. I can try to identify the problem by starting with the distributed conf file and adding changes one at a time, but that will be very laborious. Is there a better way to figure out what is wrong?
