Hi Dirk, Zitat von Dirk Devos <[email protected]>:
So, if I understand this correctly I should be putting my changes in "/usr/sbin/apachectl" and not "/etc/sysconfig/httpd".
this depends on your distribution's setup. In my case I can see that apache(2)ctl does *source* /etc/sysconfig/apache2, which would be then the proper place for local customization. How your distro handles this, is something you will have to find out (i.e. by looking at your apachectl script).
So if I want to have a variable available to me in httpd.conf that contains the server's host name that I am running on, what do I need. I have tried variable=$(hostname) and variable=`hostname` and when I use that variable in httpd.conf is always resolves to the actual literal "$(hostname)" or "`hostname`".
Why your variables aren't set properly is a different (shell scripting) story, maybe running your script via "set -x" will give you a clue.
