Apache configuration files not building due to errors in configuration templates.

Hi, I've been getting the errors randomly for awhile. I would have to reboot the machine to get the sites working again. But now its happening more often. Could be, because we are adding/modifying more website info.

I ran through a few of the solutions on the KB site. The only thing it came up with, is Missing keys and column issues. Could this really be causing my problems?

[root@server unix]# /usr/local/psa/admin/bin/php check_db.php --by-problem

I'm running
OS Linux 2.6.18-194.26.1.el5xen - (CentOS 5.8)
Panel version 10.4.4 Update #32.

Any thoughts?
 
This is what I got.

Generating new Apache configuration on host <server.com> failed because the following error(s) occurred:

Can not restart web server: httpd stop failed
0 /usr/sbin/httpd processes are killed
Service /etc/init.d/httpd failed to start
httpd stop failed
0 /usr/sbin/httpd processes are killed
Service /etc/init.d/httpd failed to start


Please fix error(s) in templates of Apache configuration and retry generating the configuration file.

Ok, I tried all the linked items and they still didn't help. None of them really had the same symptoms. The issue seems to be with httpd not restarting.

2 ways I've gotten the server to come back are:

running "/usr/local/psa/admin/bin/httpdmng --reconfigure-all" several times or Clicking on the Regenerate button in the admin error log

OR

Restarting the server.

Or a combo of the 2.

IgorG - Do you have any other suggestions?
