[systemd-devel] httpd.service daemon failing to start on Manjaro Linux

[Brenton Horne]

Hi,

I've been following this guide
<https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/MediaWiki> to install MediaWiki
1.25.2 on my Manjaro Linux machine. I managed to follow the guide, without
errors until I reached the stage of restarting httpd.service, namely
running:

systemctl restart httpd.service


This gives the error:

Job for httpd.service failed because the control process exited with error
code. See "systemctl status httpd.service" and "journalctl -xe" for details.


Running

systemctl status httpd.service

gives:

● httpd.service - Apache Web Server
   Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/httpd.service; disabled; vendor
preset: disabled)
   Active: failed (Result: exit-code) since Tue 2015-08-18 23:18:10 AEST;
