My web server started exhibiting a strange behavior:
$ /etc/init.d/apache stop
[ok]
$ /etc/init.d/apache start
* Starting web server apache2
(98)Address already in use: make_sock: could not bind to address [::]:80
(98)Address already in use: make_sock: could not bind to address 0.0.0.0:80
no listening sockets available, shutting down
Unable to open logs
[FAIL]
$ netstat -tulpn| grep :80
(No info could be read for "-p": geteuid()=1000 but you should be root.)
tcp6 0 0 :::80 :::* LISTEN
The only way to restart it is by rebooting. Any idea what may cause this? I
have not seen before and did not change the server config in a while.
