When I try to start httpd I get the following error:# service httpd start || journalctl -xn..[so:warn] [pid 425] AH01574: module ssl_module is already loaded, skippinghttpd[425]: (98)Address already in use: AH00072: make_sock: could not bind to address 0.0.0.0:443httpd[425]: no listening sockets available, shuttingSyntax is OK:# httpd -t[so:warn] [pid 917] AH01574: module ssl_module is already loaded, skippingSyntax OKOk, fine. So ssl_module.so is being loaded twice. Except that it's not:# grep -ir ssl_module /etc/httpd/*/etc/httpd/conf.d/ssl.conf:LoadModule ssl_module modules/mod_ssl.soIt also says that something is listening on port 443. Except that there isn't:# netstat -tulpnActive Internet connections (only servers)Proto Recv-Q Send-Q Local Address           Foreign Address         State       PID/Program nametcp        0      0 0.0.0.0:22              0.0.0.0:*               LISTEN      336/sshdtcp6       0      0 :::22                   :::*                    LISTEN      336/sshdAnd I'm only listening once in my httpd configuration:# grep -ir 443 /etc/httpd/*/etc/httpd/conf.d/ssl.conf:Listen 443/etc/httpd/conf.d/ssl.conf:<VirtualHost *:443>There are no services being run by apache:# top -u apache..(nothing)This looks to be as if apache is loading some other conf somewhere which is loading ssl_module.so and listening on port 443 because of the warning and the error that the socket is already in use.But the question is.. where is it??This is from a VPS configuration running CentOS Linux release 7.2.1511.
Where is ssl_module being loaded and why can't I bind to port 443?
apache httpd
