Thread: Apache: restart results in "can't open log file" error
i tweaking log file configuration in /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/my.file file. changed things in /etc/apache2/apache2.conf file. (comment out serverroot line)
when attempt restart apache get:
i've tried everything, can't figure out why apache prepending /etc/apache2 log directory path. (the actual path standard /var/log/apache2 dir)code:(2)no such file or directory: apache2: not open error log file /etc/apache2/{$apache_log_dir}/error.log. unable open logs action 'start' failed.
here's /etc/apache2/envvars file:
