plesk

I currently have a VPS that is running Plesk and for some unknown reason it will not start.

All the more information it gives me about it not starting is the following:

Operation start with the VPS(s) VEID54635644 service "psa" is finished with errors: #703 Can not start/stop/restart service: service "psa" status is not "running" after command "start".

This does really mean anything to me. Currently my server provider does not seem interested in helping me get Plesk running again so I am hoping I can get this going again on my own.

I am assuming that there has to be an error log SOMEWHERE for Plesk, but the only thing I can find is located at /usr/local/psa/admin/logs/httpds_access_log and that just looks like an access log, not an error log (it is the only file in the directory).

Is there another log somewhere in the system for this that I do not know about? Is there a way to find out why Plesk did not start?

Thanks
