I have a VPS with 15 domains in it. I didn't realize that the files in:
/etc/apache2/sites-available/*-le-ssl.conf
...belonged to Apache's SSL functionality (I thought they were certificate-related). I deleted all those files. Now I can't restart my server.
I'm getting an error saying
"Job for apache2.service failed because the control process exited with error code. See "systemctl status apache2.service" and "journalctl -xe" for details."
Please advise! |

FIXED:
Here's what was going on ...all of these were symlinks:
/etc/apache2/sites-enabled/*-le-ssl.conf
...the symlinks were pointing to
/etc/apache2/sites-available/*-le-ssl.conf
I had deleted the actual files in sites-available but didn't delete the symlinks in the sites-enabled/ directory. So I just had to delete them and it worked! |
