I recently built Apache 2.4.25 and am running it on RHEL 7.3. I’ve found something that seems a step backwards from 2.4.6 and I’m hoping someone can shed some light on it. In the Apache 2.4.6 shell script apachectl, a call to “apachectl status” invokes systemctl status httpd.service. This gives you easy-to-read output regardless if the server is running or not. In the Apache 2.4.25 version of apachectl, “apachectl status” instead calls links with the /server-status URL. When the server is up, you get a lot of info. When the server is down, you get a Elinks error, which is a little ambiguous, as there could be other reasons for links not working correctly. Doesn’t this seem like a step backwards? Can someone explain the rationale for this? (Please note: I can fix this, but I’m curious as to why it was done this way) Thanks, Jeff Cauhape IT Professional III Department of Employment, Training and Rehabilitation Phone 1-775-684-3804 Email: jpcauhape@xxxxxxxxxx |
