apache doesn't start

C

chamba

hi all, i can't make my apache 1.3_modssl run, it doesn't show me anything. First i installed the apache 1.3 modssl and i created a certificate, after that it didn't work, i removed and re-installed again but this time without a certificate because i discovered that if the server goes down i need to go to console and type the passwd, now it's not running anymore after i install it from the ports.

what can be the problem, can some one please help me.

cheers/

Look like dns problem to me. If you've working nameserver make sure it can resolve it. Another simple solution is to add hostname - foca.wwf.org.mz to /etc/hosts
Code: 
1.2.3.4   foca.wwf.org.mz
