<strong>NAME</strong>
|
|
apachectl - Apache HTTP server control interface
|
|
|
|
<strong>SYNOPSIS</strong>
|
|
<strong>apachectl </strong><em>command </em>[...]
|
|
|
|
<strong>DESCRIPTION</strong>
|
|
<strong>apachectl </strong>is a front end to the Apache HyperText Transfer
|
|
Protocol (HTTP) server. It is designed to help the adminis-
|
|
trator control the functioning of the Apache <strong>httpd </strong>daemon.
|
|
|
|
<strong>NOTE: </strong>If your Apache installation uses non-standard paths,
|
|
you will need to edit the <strong>apachectl </strong>script to set the
|
|
appropriate paths to your PID file and your <strong>httpd </strong>binary.
|
|
See the comments in the script for details.
|
|
|
|
The <strong>apachectl </strong>script returns a 0 exit value on success, and
|
|
>0 if an error occurs. For more details, view the comments
|
|
in the script.
|
|
|
|
Full documentation for Apache is available at
|
|
<strong>http://httpd.apache.org/</strong>

|
|
<strong>OPTIONS</strong>
|
|
The <em>command </em>can be any one or more of the following options:
|
|
|
|
<strong>start </strong>Start the Apache daemon. Gives an error if it
|
|
is already running.
|
|
|
|
<strong>stop </strong>Stops the Apache daemon.
|
|
|
|
<strong>restart </strong>Restarts the Apache daemon by sending it a
|
|
SIGHUP. If the daemon is not running, it is
|
|
started. This command automatically checks the
|
|
configuration files via <strong>configtest </strong>before ini-
|
|
tiating the restart to make sure Apache doesn't
|
|
die.
|
|
|
|
<strong>fullstatus </strong>Displays a full status report from <strong>mod_status.</strong>
|
|
For this to work, you need to have mod_status
|
|
enabled on your server and a text-based browser
|
|
such as <em>lynx </em>available on your system. The URL
|
|
used to access the status report can be set by
|
|
editing the <strong>STATUSURL </strong>variable in the script.
|
|
|
|
<strong>status </strong>Displays a brief status report. Similar to the
|
|
fullstatus option, except that the list of
|
|
requests currently being served is omitted.
|
|
|
|
<strong>graceful </strong>Gracefully restarts the Apache daemon by sending
|
|
it a SIGWINCH. If the daemon is not running, it
|
|
is started. This differs from a normal restart
|
|
in that currently open connections are not
|
|
aborted. A side effect is that old log files
|
|
will not be closed immediately. This means that
|
|
if used in a log rotation script, a substantial
|
|
delay may be necessary to ensure that the old
|
|
log files are closed before processing them.
|
|
This command automatically checks the configura-
|
|
tion files via <strong>configtest </strong>before initiating the
|
|
restart to make sure Apache doesn't die.
|
|
|
|
<strong>configtest </strong>Run a configuration file syntax test. It parses
|
|
the configuration files and either reports <strong>Syn-</strong>
|
|
<strong>tax Ok </strong>or detailed information about the partic-
|
|
ular syntax error.
|
|
|
|
<strong>help </strong>Displays a short help message.
