-<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
- &gt;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.
