Maybe, I would have to look through quite a lot. Can't the development team re-think about this? What is the point of not starting httpd if there is an issue with a single virtual host? Why not have that specific virtual host fail only? I would like to have this config syntax check expanded to cert content or some other way of validating that I can test if I can restart httpd safely. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscribe@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx For additional commands, e-mail: users-help@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
