[TriLUG] emergency website help needed

[William Sutton via TriLUG]

Wes,

a few thoughts/questions:
1. Is this still a problem?  If not, the rest of this is immaterial, but a 
posted solution might help close it for any future searches.
2. Can you revert your apache config back to the previous version?
3. What permissions (owner, group, and mode) exist on stock apache config 
files that you might not have touched (for example, httpd-ssl.conf)?  Try 
setting those on the config files you changed.
4. Does apachetctl configtest report any problems with the config?
5. Has your new config been tested somewhere other than production?  If 
not, I highly suggest building a test server for config change validation.
