when I try to start it with
sudo systemctl start httpd
The service waits 90 seconds and then gives me the following rather dubious message.
httpd.service: start operation timed out. Terminating. httpd.service: Failed with result 'timeout'. Failed to start The Apache HTTP Server.
The error log contains this

I have tried reinstalling apache, disabling SELinux and changing the configurations, but everything results in the same problem of apache timing out when starting.
Any hints/help would be useful. Thank you.
