Hi all

what is the command to restart restart-httpd-graceful in sme7.0pre

This one does not work

/etc/e-smith/events/actions/restart-httpd-graceful

[crazybob]

What I found to use is

httpd -k restart

I don't know is that is the truly graceful way, but it works

I use:

service httpd-admin restart
service httpd-e-smith restart

[stiperstones]

I use:

service httpd-admin restart
service httpd-e-smith restart

Thanks gizzmo2k1

I always seem to get the answer in the forum again thanks

Hi,

I wouldn't use service httpd-e-smith restart as it is deprecated and you may not start all the correct services (due to sme templating)

The correct way would be to do...

/etc/rc7.d/S86httpd-emith restart

Doing it the above way will be the way to do it

/etc/rc7.d/S86httpd-emith  restart

Very close. You'll actuall want:

/etc/rc7.d/S86httpd-emith sigusr1

The distinction is fine - "sigusr1" does the equivalent of "graceful" - it doesn't interrupt existing transfers.

"signal-event remoteaccess-update" is a simple way to reconfigure apache without needing to know any details.

To all
Thank you all for the answers and to CharlieBrady for the correct way to issue the command.
