Service Started

The Apache web server is installed on this server for use. The service should be running at the time of grading.

Additional Resources

You are working with the development team that your group of administrators supports. They are ready to begin deploying their new web based API to the Apache server, but they are unable to verify that it is running.

During their last update, some changes were made to the Apache server configuration file and the server was then restarted. Once it came back up, web requests to it were not answered and they are unable to continue their work.

You have been asked to troubleshoot the server and determine why the web service is not responding. Checking the status of the web service and associated log output should point you in the right direction in resolving the issue.
