I'm still having probs with this, I think I've now tried all suggestions posted here, but, obviously I'm missing something in my understanding (hardly unsual), and still not suceeding....
what happens, more often than not, I have probs restarting Apache using either 'service httpd...' or 'apachectl start' says it started, BUT, 'service httpd status' returns # service httpd status httpd dead but subsys locked deleting the 'var subsys file' then gives # service httpd status httpd is stopped BUT, attempting to start it, it loops to 'httpd dead but subsys locked' searching for runaway 'httpd' returns null: # ps wax |grep [a]pache # ps wax |grep [h]ttpd # killall apache apache: no process killed # killall httpd httpd: no process killed -------------------------------------------------------------- # apachectl start /usr/sbin/apachectl start: httpd started [but fails immediately] # ps wax |grep [a]pache # ps wax |grep [h]ttpd # killall apache apache: no process killed # killall httpd httpd: no process killed # apachectl start /usr/sbin/apachectl start: httpd started # service httpd status httpd dead but subsys locked # killall apache apache: no process killed # killall httpd httpd: no process killed # apachectl start -- Voytek -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ Subscription info and FAQs: http://slug.org.au/faq/mailinglists.html
