Problem starting apache

Hello,

I am running a Linux Fedora 10 server with Apache installed. I had it working fine, then I tried to install an SSL Certificate using the ISPCONFIG3 control panel. Because of something that I did in that control panel, my apache shut itself down, taking down all of my websites.

I tried to restart apache on my server, but every time I try to do it, it fails.

How do I go about restarting apache?

I am new to running a web server. If more information is needed, I will provide it.

Start by finding and reading your error log files...
