Issue Unable to configure a web server on the host

K

Kajasheen

New Pleskian
After reading a whole lot and not getting anywhere I hope someone here can help guide me in the right direction. I have been getting an e-mail from my server after reconfiguring a domain. I installed the Webconfiguration Troubleshooter and did a lot of the stuff that I found in the articles.

What I found so far:
I am running OpenSuse 13.1
Plesk 12.0.18

Shown in Plesk
Code: 
Error: New configuration files for the Apache web server were not created due to the errors in configuration templates: Can not restart web server:.

Running
Code: 
/usr/local/psa/admin/bin/httpdmng --reconfigure-all

Most of the stuff I searched for did not return anything useful other than add more debug statements. So if anyone has some ideas what I can try, I would be very glad.
 
Yes, I have seen this. With OpenSuse apache2 has moved to systemd and none of those commands still work.

I have made some progress though. When I configure the domains without restarting the apache2 everythings runs through and the error messages disappear. And I am able to manually start the apache2, so maybe that helps someone, as I havn't seen that advice anywhere and I wasn't really aware of that possibility before I saw it in some output.

Code: 
/usr/local/psa/admin/bin/httpdmng --reconfigure-all -no-restart
