Apache2 is not working when I try to reload the Apache2 error msg is coming. I am very new to server and Apache2 could you please help to run the apache2. Below is the error code.
:/etc/apache2/sites-available# sudo service apache2 reload * Reloading web server apache2 * * The apache2 configtest failed. Not doing anything.
Output of config test was:
(20)Not a directory: AH02291: Cannot access directory '/var/log/apache2/' for main error log
(20)Not a directory: AH02291: Cannot access directory '/var/log/apache2/' for error log of vhost define d at /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/test.conf:1
(20)Not a directory: AH02291: Cannot access directory '/var/log/apache2/' for error log of vhost define d at /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/000-default.conf:1
AH00014: Configuration check failed
Action 'configtest' failed.
The Apache error log may have more information.2 Answers
(20)Not a directory: AH02291: Cannot access directory '/var/log/apache2/' Check if /var/log/apache2 directory exists and Apache has read-write access to it.
If there is no folder /var/log/apache2/ Apache will not be able to write logs there.
So create it first mkdir /var/log/apache2 , or change log folder in apache.conf to something different.
Be sure that permissions are correct as well. chmod 750 /var/log/apache2
