httpd dead but subsys locked - please help

I just upgraded to 7.5.2 from the plesk updater on Redhat 9. Everything seemed to go fine (license is installed etc) but I cannot start apache.

httpd dead but subsys locked

I've upgraded (and tried disabling) both Zend Optimizer and Ioncube Loader, both to no avail.

This is the httpd error log:

[Tue Mar 15 04:35:21 2005] [warn] module frontpage_module is already loaded, skipping
[Tue Mar 15 04:35:21 2005] [warn] module frontpage_module is already loaded, skipping
[Tue Mar 15 04:41:22 2005] [warn] RSA server certificate is a CA certificate (BasicConstraints: CA == TRUE !?)
[Tue Mar 15 04:41:22 2005] [warn] RSA server certificate CommonName (CN) `plesk' does NOT match server name!?

Any suggestions? Please?

what happens when you run it outside of an init script?

Do you mean just typing /usr/sbin/httpd?

If so, the same thing happens.

If not, how do I run it outside an init script?

yep thats what I mean, are you in a high file descriptor environment? (250+ domains) That would cause it to happen as well.
