RE: [PHP] webserver restart,

i want to do the same thing, for a webhost server interface. but it would be crazy to have apache restarting every 5 minutes. so i thought a cronjob check for errors and if none, restart every 3 hours would be more practical... if you want to restart apache, you can use a setuid C program, just write a wrapper that has suexec like checking.. check out the suexec.c and suexec.h files in your apache/src/support directory. > -----Original Message----- > From: Jason [mailto:jasonc@webpipe.net] > Sent: Wednesday, July 05, 2000 2:18 PM > To: Ken N; php-general@lists.php.net > Subject: RE: [PHP] webserver restart, > > > You could use the C solution but then the executable could be run > by anyone > on the server and that wouldn't be a good thing.
