Ummm httpd is what it says wont restart to congifure. As for the webserver.... Im not sure if its apache or what... Error message on boot : Starting http - perl [FAILED]
Starting httpd [OK]
[FAILED]
[FAILED]
[FAILED]
[FAILED]

And when I go to configure Apache settings it says to sync the settings. So I click "Do it" then a box comes up saying "This process is taking too long" Skip, Close, Abort

Im using Linux - mandrake

OK, let me investigate this. I don't use Apache GUI-ness, I just edit the conf files.

It looks like perl is causing the problem here, you can recreate the whole error message if you are root and killall httpd and then type httpd to restart (or at least I do that d: )

What are the other failed messages?

Sorry for all the questions, but it helps me work d:
