I run RHL 6.1 with many but not all of the updates from the update agent. I have the Linuxconf 1.16r10-2 and apache 1.3.9-8 When I ran Linuxconf just to reduce the number of Apache processes started under the performance module, the httpd would not restart. The conf file had a bug on line 394 according to the error when I rebooted to look at it. I can send you a copy of the corrupted file. The original .conf file works and apache starts and runs fine.
Created attachment 260 [details] this is the bad .conf file that linuxconf made. Apache no go
This is fixed in the current rawhide package (the apache configurator is disabled.)
