Apache fails to start under RH7.1

["Jean-Christian Imbeault" <jean_christian@example.com>]

I know this as a simple solution but I'm just not finding it.

I try starting apache on my RH7.1 box and all I get is a message saying 
[FAILED]. Nothing in /var/log/httpd either.

I've been following Johdn De Hoog's thread about problems with leafnode as 
they seem similar to mine, but I'm not quite there yet.

I have noticed that netstat -A -l inet doesn't have an entry for httpd 
though. I assume this means there is a problem with my xinetd setup.

I created my own conf file for httpd and put it in /etc/xinetd.d/ . It looks 
like this

# default: on
service httpd
{
        wait		= no
	server		= /usr/sbin/httpd
	disable		= no
	socket_type	= stream
	user		= root
}


I have also disabled ipchains, even though it was set to accept everything. 
And removed the hosts.deny file, added ALL: ALL to hosts.allow. But still 
httpd refuses to start.

Is this an xinetd config problem? What did I miss?
