When I tried starting the server with '/usr/local/sbin/apachectl start', it gives me the error message, '/usr/local/sbin/apachectl start : httpd could not be started'. For your information, httpd is located at '/usr/local/sbin/httpd' and it can be executed manually without any errors. Does anyone have any suggestions on troubleshooting the problem ? Thanks.
