[rhn-users] Process information!! Please Guide Me

Hello Sunil,

Who owns the daemons on Web1 and Web2? Are the entries in /etc/passwd and
/etc/group the same for the user/group apache?  When you installed apache
did you use the default install from the OS, install from rpm, or install
source and compile?...on both boxes.  Run the 'apachectl -t' or 'apachectl
configtest' command to verify the syntax of your config files are correct.
Modify your /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf file and change the 'LogLevel' to
Debug to capture errors to the error log, then stop and restart your
daemons.  I would then parse the log for info.  This may help in identifying
what's not starting.  

--Mike.

Hello Mike

Thanks for you reply :)

First of all I am not starting the httpd service at any  run level

I start manualy when system boots up.

I am using apachectl script to start the httpd service. which comes with 
apache souce.

httpd.conf is same expect IP address on both the web server..

I copied it from web1 to web2  because, on both the server I am running 
same site.

I installed same version of  apache from souce on both the web server.

Both system are having the same OS version (Redhat 9) except the 
kernerlversion.
And logs are shown normal entries and are same on both the servers

Following is the details of both the server
