Q: Can anyone help with apachectl error messages in Terminal?

OK I think I can see what's wrong.  I'll get back to you soon.

Any ideas?

I looked thought the documens and his instuctions seem a bit over the top.  So to help we can iver start from the begining or try to fix what you have.  If you want to fix what you have I first need to know:

1) where did you put the baikal-regular folder after you downloaded it?

2) Can you cut and past "/etc/apache2/httpd.conf  It is wrong.

My one is:

# This is the main Apache HTTP server configuration file.  It contains the

# configuration directives that give the server its instructions.

# See <URL:http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2> for detailed information.

# In particular, see

# <URL:http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/directives.html>

# for a discussion of each configuration directive.

#

# Do NOT simply read the instructions in here without understanding

# what they do.  They're here only as hints or reminders.  If you are unsure

# consult the online docs. You have been warned. 

#

# Configuration and logfile names: If the filenames you specify for many

# of the server's control files begin with "/" (or "drive:/" for Win32), the

# server will use that explicit path.  If the filenames do *not* begin

# with "/", the value of ServerRoot is prepended -- so 'log/access_log'

# with ServerRoot set to '/www' will be interpreted by the

# server as '/www/log/access_log', where as '/log/access_log' will be

# interpreted as '/log/access_log'.

#

# ServerRoot: The top of the directory tree under which the server's

# configuration, error, and log files are kept.

#

# Do not add a slash at the end of the directory path.  If you point

# ServerRoot at a non-local disk, be sure to point the LockFile directive

# at a local disk.  If you wish to share the same ServerRoot for multiple

# httpd daemons, you will need to change at least LockFile and PidFile.

#

ServerRoot "/usr"

#

# Listen: Allows you to bind Apache to specific IP addresses and/or

# ports, instead of the default. See also the <VirtualHost>

# directive.

#

# Change this to Listen on specific IP addresses as shown below to

# prevent Apache from glomming onto all bound IP addresses.

The instuctions need editing these instuctions need adding:

I the file "/etc/apache2/extra/httpd-vhosts.conf" if there are examples they need commenting out (adding a # infrount of each line)

So you should have:

#

# Virtual Hosts

#

# If you want to maintain multiple domains/hostnames on your

# machine you can setup VirtualHost containers for them. Most configurations

# use only name-based virtual hosts so the server doesn't need to worry about

# IP addresses. This is indicated by the asterisks in the directives below.

#

# Please see the documentation at

# <URL:http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/vhosts/>

# for further details before you try to setup virtual hosts.

#

# You may use the command line option '-S' to verify your virtual host

# configuration.

#

# Use name-based virtual hosting.

#

NameVirtualHost *:8443

#

# VirtualHost example:

# Almost any Apache directive may go into a VirtualHost container.

# The first VirtualHost section is used for all requests that do not

# match a ServerName or ServerAlias in any <VirtualHost> block.

#

#<VirtualHost *:80>

#    ServerAdmin webmaster@dummy-host.example.com

#    DocumentRoot "/usr/docs/dummy-host.example.com"

#    ServerName dummy-host.example.com

</VirtualHost>

The instuctions need editing these instuctions need adding:

In the file "/etc/apache2/extra/httpd-ssl.conf" there are lines that need changes 

So you should have:

## SSL Virtual Host Context

##

<VirtualHost _default_:8443>

#   General setup for the virtual host

DocumentRoot "/Library/WebServer/Documents"

ServerName localhost:8443

ServerAdmin you@example.com

ErrorLog "/private/var/log/apache2/error_log"

TransferLog "/private/var/log/apache2/access_log"

And the "openssl" commands need "sudo"

I sent a relay long post with my /etc/apache2/httpd.conf file.  and I ask for yours.  Don't warrey about this it's the posts after that that sort the problem out.

I hope you can flow all this.

Sorry!!!

1) edit /etc/apache2/httpd-vhosts.conf

2) edit /etc/apache2/httpd-ssl.conf

3) do the sudo openssl........ commands

it dose not relay matter in what order

it is much, much, very much!!! more easy to spend £13.99 or $16 on the Mavericks server and then you can do much more.

my error

Sorry

it is:  /etc/apache2/extra/httpd-vhosts.conf

and /etc/apache2/extra/httpd-ssl.conf
