Daniel, If you think about it you are asking Apache to start with a known bad configuration. Apache has no way of knowing whether the contents of the missing file were important or not. Perhaps they contained important security information. As such it is better for Apache to not start and force someone to fix the configuration than to start anyway.

So Apache2 tries to start but finds this problem and stops. Is there any parameter in the configurations files that allows Apache2 continue starting sites although any of them are not accessible (file removed, bad link...) ??
