Warning: start service httpd failed

/usr/local/psa/admin/sbin/pleskrc execution failed:
Job for httpd.service failed because the control process exited with error code.
See "systemctl status httpd.service" and "journalctl -xe" for details.

There's nothing that I know that changed between the other day and today, yet everything is broken now. The sites don't work but Plesk does.

Best,

Solved myself after two hours.

And it's down again. What is going on??

Most likely the problem is caused by the reason, the description in the article  Unable to start Apache: Unable to find IPv4 address of server.example.com
I advise you to check it out.

Very quick fix if that's the case!

Hey Igor! Seems to have been an SE Linux issue. Been stable for a couple days now.

This one solve the problem with Lite Speed, great! but Plesk must ensure that extensions removed from the plesk panel do the whloe work. Before found this solutions, we almost get heart attack!!!
