I know this response is a little late, but if you haven't wiped your server install yet, this might be worth a shot.

I had a similar issue with Apache 2 on 10.5.2 in that I "bricked" the webserver without changing anything. For those of you thinking "Well you must have done something to brick it, otherwise it would've kept working", I would say that whatever I did had a secondary and ill side-effect so far away from what was intended that I truly don't know how I "bricked" it, but I digress.

After many hours of typing in the Terminal, deleting files, getting lost in the Apache 1 directory, etc, I figured out how to "unbrick" the webserver.

Using Terminal, go to /etc/apache2 and copy servermgr_web_apache2_config.plist.default to servermgr_web_apache2_config.plist. This will wipe out the existing servermgr_web_apache2_config.plist file, and it should get the webserver working again. It did for me anyway.

Hi,

I've got a brand new 10.5.2 server installation running on a G5 iMac
(2gb ram, 1.8 ghz).

The web server no longer runs, and if I attempt to configure it the
server admin shows the following error message:

<http://www.4vet.com.au/private/admin_client_error.png>

This is obviously some cocoa error that doesn't actually tell me much
about the server problems.

I thought the first simple thing to do would be to remove the preferences?

The 2nd (not so simple thing) is to scrub the system and start again.
I'm not keen to do this as I've downloaded several gigabytes of
software updates (the main reason I wanted the server) and I don't
want to do that again!

Thanks in advance for any help you can offer.

Cheers,

Wayne
