Not doing an immediate back-to-back stop/start because as there is no pidfile the stop does not work: /etc/httpd/bin/httpd -k stop httpd (no pid file) not running Only options are to reboot the server or manually kill all apache processes to restart apache. Pidfile uncommented: 1. No error message when httpd processes are not running - Apache does not start, does not say that there was an error, nor log an error. 2. Error message when an Apache process is running and trying to start/restart. When no pidfile exists, must kill all httpd processes manually before being able to restart or start Apache again, otherwise will get the binding error, stopping Apache does not work. If the problem is RHEL5 specific, then there are two possible scenarios, both bad: Scenario A: 1. User installs Apache source. 2. Apache gets started. (no pidfile path specified in default source install, so Apache starts successfully.) 3. User imports old RHEL5 httpd.conf file with Pidfile path and all other settings. 4. User restarts Apache server, gets binding error, nothing in error logs about Pidfile being the problem. Scenario B: 1. User installs Apache source. 2. Apache is NOT started. 3. User imports old RHEL5 httpd.conf file with Pidfile path and all other settings. 4. User tries to start Apache server, nothing happens, no error, no response, nothing. -- Configure bugmail: https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
