      After restarting httpd run this command: journalctl -xe for more info.

      You can also try tempoary setting SELinux to permissive for troubleshooting.
      setenforce 0

        Your logs not being readable is the problem.

        That FQDN error is normal if you use a vhost conf file instead of editing the main httpd.conf

            And you can note here, I get the same FQDN message.

              Ah, now I have the problem. I just rebooted.

              So the problem is not that it updated. It is that it updated and something else changed that was not applied until a reboot applied the update. Like the new kernel.

                    I didn't say the kernel broke anything. I said a new change that was not applied until reboot like the new kernel.

                      Ah I see.

                      I just rebooted some web servers last night and no issues.

                        And here is the problem. SELinux on the log file.

                        -- Unit httpd.service has begun starting up.

                        That vhost file that we made, bookstack.conf specified this: CustomLog /var/log/access.log combined

                        And the SELinux context is not writable by Apache.

                        [root@bookstack ~]# ls -laZ /var/log/access.log /var/log/httpd

                        It should have stated CustomLog /var/log/httpd/access_log combined

                          So, if you followed the original instructions, you can use this to fix it.

                          sed -i "s/access\.log/httpd\/access_log/" /etc/httpd/conf.d/bookstack.conf

                          Then start apache.

                          systemctl start httpd

                            FYI, I totally blame someone else and not myself as I used the conf file from @black3dynamite in my guide.

                            Not sure WTF changed to let it work then not work though.
