Hello All, I know this may be a newbie question, however when i run the following command, all of my apache processes are listed with -k start. I have an example listed below:
ps -aux | grep apache | grep -v grep apache 22397 3.5 0.3 360224 28476 ? S 09:39 0:08 /usr/sbin/httpd -k start apache 22559 10.3 0.4 365472 34572 ? S 09:39 0:23 /usr/sbin/httpd -k start apache 22721 4.9 0.3 363376 32588 ? S 09:39 0:11 /usr/sbin/httpd -k start apache 22723 5.2 0.3 363692 32112 ? R 09:39 0:11 /usr/sbin/httpd -k start apache 23059 6.0 0.3 361404 29824 ? S 09:35 0:27 /usr/sbin/httpd -k start apache 25198 4.4 0.3 361636 29752 ? S 09:36 0:19 /usr/sbin/httpd -k start apache 25396 5.1 0.3 360356 28736 ? S 09:36 0:22 /usr/sbin/httpd -k start apache 28921 8.1 0.3 359324 27904 ? S 09:40 0:15 /usr/sbin/httpd -k start apache 29474 4.6 0.3 359200 27708 ? S 09:40 0:08 /usr/sbin/httpd -k start apache 31748 5.0 0.3 362396 31272 ? S 09:32 0:33 /usr/sbin/httpd -k start I was wondering if anyone has any insight as to why the process is listing the -k start? I have never seen this on any of my other websevers, typcially they just show "0:33 /usr/sbin/httpd". I am running Centos 5.3, Server version: Apache/2.2.3 Server built: Jan 21 2009 22:00:55 Any help would be appreciated :) Regards, peter_bateman -- View this message in context: http://apache-http-server.18135.x6.nabble.com/apache-process-ps-aux-tp5007013.html Sent from the Apache HTTP Server - Dev mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
