However, I am having a wierd problem, when I start the httpd daemon like this:
./httpd & [1234] It prints a process number in brackets, but when I do a "ps -ef" that process ID no longer exists. Since my monitoring software has to launch the httpd daemon and keep track of the first one it keeps trying to restart it because it thinks it has died... I have used that switch (forget which one it is from the command line, I think -D, where it only runs one daemon for debugging) and then everything works fine, however obviously I don't want to do that in a production environment... Any suggestions or ideas regarding this?... - Greg S. >How-To-Repeat: >Fix: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: [In order for any reply to be added to the PR database, ] [you need to include <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> in the Cc line ] [and leave the subject line UNCHANGED.
