UPDATE: RT DOWN - Error message starting Apache

I appreciate your responses.

OK. I don’t know exactly what caused it.

I ran this command and apache started:

—snip—

perl -MCPAN -e ‘install File::Temp’

—snip—

Everything seems to be normal.

I would like to understand why it happened. How do you handle system
updates? I use yum-updatesd as a service.

BTW-My machine is a CentOS 5 box using Apache 2, MySQL 5 and perl 5.8.8

Thanks, again!!

Hello,

I think YUM broke something last night. Upon a reboot today, apache
will not start. In /var/log/httpd/error_log, I get this error:

Can anyone give me advice as to the problem and possible fixes? This is
a production server and it is down.
