OOD 1.5 Apache Service Start Failure

Get Help
1

Working on Connecting OOD 1.5 KVM VM to Open HPC Cluster. Running on CentOS 7.6. The OOD node is booting okay and I can ssh into it, but httpd24 service fails to start. Apparently log files didn’t get created for some reason during the install. I am assuming log files/directories normally would be created, but since I am new to OOD I am not sure. Errors are shown below, what is the best way to resolve this problem?

Got it figured out. It was a symlink located at /opt/rh/httpd24/root/etc/httpd/logs which pointed at /var/log/httpd24 which didn’t exist. I created directory httpd24 and set the permissions with chmod 600 /var/log/httpd24 and now httpd24-httpd service runs:-)

Now I am getting an error within the httpd24 service related to httpd-scl-wrapper, see below:

Figured out the source of the errors. It was caused by Open HPC wwvnfs the VNFS build command only constructing the default /var/log directory for OPHC, thus it was missing some of the folders needed for OOD.
