RE: [gentoo-user] apache2 2.2.x fails to start due to mod_dav_svn.so

[Daevid Vincent]

Seriously? Not a single other person has this issue but me?

Just because my web server has been down for an entire day due to this, I
decided, OK, I'll just remove the DAV / SVN stuff and at least get the sites
up.

I changed the line in conf.d/apache2 to:
APACHE2_OPTS="-D PHP5 -D DEFAULT_VHOST -D INFO -D LANGUAGE -D SSL -D
SSL_DEFAULT_VHOST -D SUEXEC -D AUTH_MYSQL"

Then took out all the *-trac.conf files from /etc/apache2/vhosts.d 

I had to recompile PHP and mod_auth_mysql as well b/c I got some other
errors.

Now I get the oh-so-helpful (not):

# /etc/init.d/apache2 start
 * Starting apache2 ...                               [ !! ]

Awesome.

# tail -f error_log

(2)No such file or directory: apache2: could not open error log file
/usr/lib/apache2/logs/bimagery-error_log.
Unable to open logs

Oh, so I look, and look at that, no directory or link, and
apache2-extramodules is a broken link to God knows where that went!

# ll /usr/lib/apache2/
total 84
drwxr-xr-x   4 root root  4096 Sep 19 18:37 .
drwxr-xr-x 105 root root 69632 Sep 11 22:49 ..
drwxr-xr-x   2 root root  4096 Sep  7 12:43 build
lrwxrwxrwx   1 root root    29 Sep 12  2005 extramodules ->
/usr/lib/apache2-extramodules
drwxr-xr-x   2 root root  4096 Sep  7 12:43 modules

apache2 # ln -vs /var/log/apache2 logs

So now apache2 at least starts. __Still no Trac/SVN__.

WHAT THE ($#*&@# IS GOING ON! WHY is Apache 2.4 forced upon me as 'stable'
when it doesn't work and breaks all these modules!?
