Thanks everybody for the help! Once checking the logs again and running verbose i was able to see it was still an issue with SSL and starting httpd. I ran again a yum update which updated a bunch of stuff including openssl. Than remade the cert which i also found had a incorrect hostname listed in it.
All good now.
