Azure Linux, Apache2 service is running

kabkee 2017-03-12 09:58:41 UTC #1

On Azure, I installed CentOS 6.x using Bitnami LAMP.
It works find until yesterday, but today it directs to another page - apache2 default page - not to what i defined in 'httpd.conf'.

I figured it out why it was.
Because linux apache2 service is running and bitnami got an error, 80 port is listening when Bitnami service was supposed to run.
What I've done is that Disabled apache2 service.
Finally, it works find with Bitnami service.

My question.
1. What and why does this happen??
2. Is it possible for Azure to install Apache2 and enable service, updating Azure linux extensions or so?
3. Is it possible for Azure maintenance to change service setup or so?

HI,

I will try to answer your questions:

1.- It seems that your Centos 6.x have a pre ship apache2 service. Your instance on)could have been restarted (by any reason) and then the apache2 service started at the startup. you can check this by using the command uptime.
Another possibility is that you have any kind of auto update option enabled in your Centos6 and that was the reason.

2-. In principle not. It is more probable the options that I show you in point 1-1
3 -. Same answer that 2-.

Best regards,
Silvio Fernández

@silvio Thank you for your answer.

Yes. I think the most possible reason was number one as like you think.
What I confirmed was that the instance has been restarted (yes, by any reason). and apache2 service started.

Thank you again.
