Howdy,
On CentOS, the "ssl.conf" file in /etc/httpd/conf.d/ is included by this line in the httpd.conf file:
Include conf.d/*.confOne way to prevent the ssl.conf file from being loaded then would just be to rename it so that it doesn't end in ".conf". For example, you could rename it to "ssl.conf.orig" and then restart Apache.

Thanks for the reply I tried renaming the ssl.conf however webserver wouldn't restart.
Got something really weird going on which I cannot work out I have the server operating behind a load balancer however since putting the load balancer in front the web server is now ignoring the Virtual Hosts which were working completely normally when there was no load balancer. Now the server will only operate using the default config in httpd.conf as said it ignores the VHosts.
Can anyone give me any guidance on what the issue is and how I can fix?

Howdy,
While there are some warnings in the output you provided, none of those are fatal errors that would keep Apache from starting.
What error(s) do you receive when trying to start Apache and the ssl.conf is renamed?
Are there additional errors in the Apache logs, in /var/log/httpd/error_log?

OK just to update this ticket - the solution to the issues was to add/uncomment:
NameVirtualHost *:443 NameVirtualHost *:80
In httpd.conf
Again just to reiterate not sure the reasons why it all worked before the load balancer was added as NameVirtualHost was commented out originally and all worked OK however now behind the load balancer it needs NameVirtualHost in the conf.
This info might be useful to someone else.
