            Bug ID: 55670
           Summary: Startup may fail silently at post_config
           Product: Apache httpd-2
           Version: 2.5-HEAD
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: minor
          Priority: P2
         Component: Core
          Assignee: [email protected]
          Reporter: [email protected]

Where httpd fails on startup, users expect an error message to show on stderr.

But when a fatal error occurs in a post_config function, all messages including
the core's final "Configuration Failed" go only to error_log.  The commandline
user gets no clue that startup failed.  apachectl is also silent.

Solution: if something fails at ap_run_post_config, main.c should report on
stderr immediately before exit!
