Agree with Michael,My start/stop scripts all now do a configtest before trying to stop/start apache - this way I never have no service if something goes wrong!
I do have a forcestop which will stop an apache if the config is wrong - as a last resort!

The TLS library (e.g. openssl) probably can do that, though I'm not familiar with the specific argument you would need.Apache also has a check that can test whether or not apache will successfully start, that you can run before restarting the server.apachectl configtest I believe is the command.I'm not sure it tests all the TLS certs but if it doesn't, it is a bug in my mind.--------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscribe@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx For additional commands, e-mail: users-help@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
