Re: Apache

if you're running redhat do: /etc/rc.d/init.d/httpd stop rpm -qa | grep apa get the name of your apache rpm rpm -e <<apache rpm>> it will probably give you messages about a couple apache-specific dirs (redhat installs crap _everywhere)... once you have rpm -e'd the apache rpm, you can just rm -rf those dirs. you can then cd /path/to/apache/bin/ cp apachectl /etc/rc.d/init.d/ if you'd like, you can insert this text into the comments at the top of apachectl: # Comments to support chkconfig on RedHat Linux # chkconfig: 345 90 16 # description: apache then you can run /sbin/chkconfig --level 345 apachectl on and your new copy of apache will run just peachy :) --- -- Alex Black, Head Monkey enigma@turingstudio.com The Turing Studio, Inc. http://www.turingstudio.com vox+510.666.0074 fax+510.666.0093 Saul Zaentz Film Center 2600 Tenth St Suite 433 Berkeley, CA 94710-2522 > From: jeffp-php@outofservice.com ("Jeff P") > Newsgroups: php.general > Date: 4 Jan 2001 17:43:54 -0800 > Subject: Re: [PHP] Apache > > >> Great it installed apache and I checked over >> the new httpd.conf file and it seemed to have >> all the correct information in it.
