<p>This document is not a traditional FAQ, but rather a quick
guide showing you what to do when you run into problems with the
Apache HTTP Server.</p>
<p>A more traditional but quite outdated document is the <a href="http://httpd.apache.org/docs/misc/FAQ.html">Apache 1.3
FAQ</a>.</p>

problems</a></h2>
<p>If you are having trouble with your Apache server software, you should
take the following steps:</p>
<dl>
<dt>Check the ErrorLog!</dt>
<dd><p>Apache tries to be helpful when it encounters a problem. In many
cases, it will provide some details by writing one or more messages to the
server error log. Sometimes this is enough for you to diagnose and fix
the problem yourself (such as file permissions or the like). The default
location of the error log is
<code>/usr/local/apache2/logs/error_log</code>, but see the <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/core.html#errorlog">ErrorLog</a></code> directive in your config files for the
location on your server.</p>
<p>If you end up in any of the support forums this is quite likely to be the
first place they will ask you retrieve information from. Please ensure you
know where to find your errorlog. If you are unsure, the wiki page
<a href="http://wiki.apache.org/httpd/DistrosDefaultLayout"> here</a> can
give you some ideas where to look.</p></dd>
<dt>Consult the wiki</dt>
<dd>The <a href="http://wiki.apache.org/httpd/">Apache HTTP
Server Wiki</a> contains guides to solving many common
problems.</dd>
<dt>Check the Apache bug database</dt> <dd>Most problems that
get reported to The Apache Group are recorded in the <a href="http://httpd.apache.org/bug_report.html">bug database</a>.
<strong>Do not</strong> submit a new bug report until you have
checked existing reports (open <em>and</em> closed) and asked
about your problem in a user-support forum (see below). If you
find that your issue has already been reported, please
<em>don't</em> add a "me, too" report.</dd>
<dt><a id="support.what2do.user-support" name="support.what2do.user-support">Ask in a user support forum</a></dt>
<dd><p>Apache has an active community of users who are willing to share
their knowledge. Participating in this community is usually the best and
fastest way to get answers to your questions and problems.</p>
<p><a href="http://httpd.apache.org/userslist.html">Users
mailing list</a></p>
<p><a href="irc://irc.freenode.net/#apache">#apache</a> on
<a href="http://freenode.net">Freenode IRC</a> is also available for
user support issues.</p>
</dd>
<dt>Please use the bug database for bugs!</dt>
<dd><p>If you've gone through those steps above that are appropriate and
have obtained no relief, then please <em>do</em> let the httpd developers
know about the problem by <a href="http://httpd.apache.org/bug_report.html">logging a bug
report</a>.</p>
<p>If your problem involves the server crashing and generating a core
dump, please <a href="http://httpd.apache.org/dev/debugging.html">
include a backtrace</a> (if possible).</p>

<h2><a name="support.support" id="support.support">Whom do I contact for support?</a></h2>
<p>With millions of users and fewer than sixty volunteer developers,
we cannot provide personal support for Apache. For free support, we
suggest participating in a user forum (see above).</p>
<p>Professional, commercial support for Apache is available from
a number of companies.</p>
