named and httpd stopped working [SOLVED]

Hi,

ls -lR /var/run

Output:

total 0
ls: cannot access /var/run/httpd/httpd.pid: Permission denied
ls: cannot access /var/run/httpd/cgisock.2642: Permission denied

/var/run/httpd:
total 0

?????????? ? ? ? ?                ? httpd.pid
ls: cannot access /var/run/laptop-mode-tools/enabled: Permission denied

ls: cannot access /var/run/named/named.pid: Permission denied

/var/run/named:
total 0
?????????? ? ? ? ?                ? named.pid

When I try to start httpd with "/usr/sbin/apachectl start", I get:

(13)Permission denied: Error retrieving pid file /var/run/httpd/httpd.pid
Remove it before continuing if it is corrupted.

When I try to start named with "/etc/rc.d/named start", I get:

:: Starting DNS           [FAIL]

" lsattr /var/run/" command's output is:

lsattr: Inappropriate ioctl for device While reading flags on /var/run/hald
lsattr: Inappropriate ioctl for device While reading flags on /var/run/sudo

lsattr: Inappropriate ioctl for device While reading flags on /var/run/wpa_supplicant
lsattr: Inappropriate ioctl for device While reading flags on /var/run/daemons

When I try to delete httpd.pid I get the following error:

rm: cannot remove `httpd.pid': Permission denied

Any suggestions how I can fix this problem?

EDIT: "/usr/sbin/apachectl start" command displays a better message to understand the problem.

Thanks,
Ozgun.

Re: named and httpd stopped working [SOLVED]

Looks like file system corruption from here... Have you run fsck over the partition?

Re: named and httpd stopped working [SOLVED]

Thanks for the reply "fukawi2". I booted my laptop with a bootable cd and ran the following commands and fixed the partition's file system:

# fsck /dev/hda6
# fsck.reiserfs --rebuild-tree /dev/hda6

Thanks again.

I take it that that fixed the issue?

Can you edit your original post and mark as solved please?
