Troubleshooting on puppet agent fail to install mediawiki

## if you see following message during "puppet agent --test --debug"

err: /Stage[main]/Apache/Service[httpd]/ensure: change from stopped to running failed: Could not start Service[httpd]: Execution of '/sbin/service httpd start' returned 1:  at /etc/puppet/modules/apache/manifests/init.pp:77

## test it again manually.

# /sbin/service httpd start
Starting httpd: Syntax error on line 38 of /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf:
Invalid command 'LogFormat', perhaps misspelled or defined by a module not included in the server configuration
                                                           [FAILED]


## manually remove following lines starting from line 38

$vi /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf

LogFormat "%h %l %u %t \"%r\" %>s %b \"%{Referer}i\" \"%{User-Agent}i\"" combined
LogFormat "%h %l %u %t \"%r\" %>s %b" common
LogFormat "%{Referer}i -> %U" referer
LogFormat "%{User-agent}i" agent


## and try again, you will see another error message like

# /sbin/service httpd start
Starting httpd: Syntax error on line 26 of /etc/httpd/conf.d/15-default.conf:
Invalid command 'CustomLog', perhaps misspelled or defined by a module not included in the server configuration
                                                           [FAILED]


## edit /etc/httpd/conf.d/15-default.conf remove following line starting from line 26

CustomLog /var/log/httpd/access_log combined

## and try again

# /sbin/service httpd start
Starting httpd: httpd: Could not reliably determine the server's fully qualified domain name, using 127.0.0.1 for ServerName
                                                           [  OK  ]


# it works.

## DON'T RUN  "puppet agent ..." command again.
