[Xymon] First time installed, and set up xymon, failed, NEED helps please.

[Kern Doe]

OK, so I included xymon-apache.conf in file httpd.conf:
    head -5 /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf    include /home/xymon/server/etc/xymon-apache.conf
    #
    # This is the main Apache server configuration file.  It contains the
    # configuration directives that give the server its instructions.
    # See <URL:http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/> for detailed information.


I restarted httpd
    service httpd restart
    Stopping httpd:                                            [FAILED]

That looks right, Stephen,
You *DO NOT* want to replace /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf with the xymon config like you did!  You need to do an Include or copy the configuration within it.

All I had to do was add this line to httpd.conf:

Include /var/xymon/server/etc/xymon- apache.conf

Then restarted httpd.
