[gentoo-user] Can't restart apache2

[Mike Diehl]

Well, I'm not sure what I've done.

I did an emerge world some time ago and never restarted apache2.

Now that I HAVE to restart it, it's giving me errors....


/etc/init.d/apache2 restart

 * Apache2 has detected a syntax error in your configuration files:
apache2: Syntax error on line 257 of /etc/apache2/httpd.conf: Cannot 
load /etc/apache2/modules/mod_cgi.so into 
server: /etc/apache2/modules/mod_cgi.so: cannot open shared object file: No 
such file or directory

I've commented out enough lines in the httpd.conf file to guess that probably 
NONE of my apache modules are present anymore.

How can I fix this?  How can I do it and minimize my downtime?

TIA,

Have you run etc-update (or dispatch-conf) since the last time you 
updated your system? It may have happened that apache has changed its 
config file syntax or modules directory and, hence, you'll need new 
configuration.

HTH,
