Mijn vraag
...
Ik heb onlangs mijn server geüpgraded van Debian 6.0 naar 8.0. Sindsdien werkt OCS Inventory Server 2.0.5 niet meer
Hij is simpelweg niet meer bereikbaar via zijn URL (http://server/ocsreports).
Nu heb ik het e.e.a. bekeken en zag ik dat er 2 bestanden om 'm te starten via Apache2 in /etc/apache2/conf.d zaten (z-ocsinventory-server.conf & ocsinventory-reports.conf).
Het lijkt erop dat in Debian 8.0 de directory /etc/apache2/conf.d niet meer gebruikt wordt en de configuraties voortaan worden opgeslagen in /etc/apache2/conf-available. En degene die gebruikt moeten worden, gelinkt moeten zijn naar /etc/apache2/conf-enabled.
Ik heb dus die twee .conf's naar /etc/apache2/conf-available verplaatst met een symlink ernaartoe in /etc/apache2/conf-enabled. Echter, dit werkt niet... de Apache2 webserver start hierna helemaal niet meer
Hij geeft geen foutmelding, maar simpelweg [Failed] bij een "/etc/init.d/apache2 restart"
In het error-log lijkt niks interessants over te staan 
Natuurlijk is versie 2.0.5 verouderd. Maar ik wil 'm eerst werkend hebben voordat ik kan gaan upgraden naar de nieuwste versie, lijkt mij. Er zit verder ook geen verwijder-tool bij om te verwijderen en dan schoon te installeren... ik had 'm lang geleden geïnstalleerd via een setup.sh uit hun .tar.gz pakketje... daar zit geen uninstaller bij
Hoe krijg ik deze OCS Inventory Server weer werkend?
Relevante software en hardware die ik gebruik
...
- Debian Linux 8.0
- OCS Inventory Server 2.0.5
- Apache 2.4.10
Wat ik al gevonden of geprobeerd heb
...
De bestaande configuratiebestanden naar de nieuwe locatie verplaatsen die door de Apache-versie in Debian 8.0 verwerkt worden. Resultaat: niet-startende Apache.
Di is wat er staat in de configuratiebestanden van OCS Inventory Server... heb daar verder erg weinig verstand van
z-ocsinventory-server.conf:
