"Userland" startup scripts (ie: the ones created by the admin) go in:
/usr/local/etc/rc.d
Create a shell script, for this example: apache.sh and then chmod 755 it.
Note: The files HAVE to be called something.sh and they HAVE to be chmod 755
otherwise they don't work.
Note: Use the apachectl script to start and stop apache. Just had a thought..
I haven't used Apache 2 yet..so don't know if this will work..but I do the
below for Apache 1.3 ... so it should be something similar
In the file do something like this:
START SCRIPT EXAMPLE
#!/bin/sh
#Script for starting and stapping apache
#Grab our command
mode=$1 # start or stop
case "$mode" in
'start')
# Start daemon
/path/to/apachectlscript/apachectl start
;;
'stop')
#Stop daemon
/path/to/apachectlscript/apachectl stop
;;
*)
# usage
echo "usage: $0 start|stop"
exit 1
;;
esac
END SCRIPT EXAMPLE
Hope that helps :)
