cat /var/log/syslog | grep apache
and
/var/log/apache2/users/default-error.log

But, it is much more interesting why apache wont restart.
If happens for the next time try to stop it first:
/etc/init.d/apache2 stop
Wait a second.. then look at the processes:
ps aux | grep apache
to verify it is really down. Then try to start it and copy and paste the error-message

Hello and thank you for your reply

Well, it gave me this:

Can this logs explain something?

This mod_fcgid is antother problem i have, i think it is why every wordpress blogs recieves the Error 500 Internal Server Error! But i think i have to upgrade to Debian Lenny.

Too bad i didnt check if apache was running. I will come back next time it happens with why apache wont start.

Thank you
