Topic: SME 11 e-smith Fails to Start

[j_radue]

Hi, I have installed the SME 11 beta orginally, but updated to what I believe is RC1. I have never been able to access the server manager, with a connect refused error. I was able to get the following info from the command line.

Jul 11 16:23:02 radue-server.raduehome.net systemd[1]: Starting httpd-e-smith The Koozali SME Server Apache HTTP Service...

It seems the httpd.conf file is malformed or something, but I am unsure how to fix it.

dnf update --refresh
signal-event post-upgrade; signal-event reboot
make sure you open  https://serverip/smanager from a lan connected pc

Thank you for the reply.  I ran the commands, but the result was "Nothing to do."  So no progress.

check line 843 of /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf, you might have some custom templates or a faulty contrib
try to identify template fragment generating line 843 or show content around that line
