Re: [users@httpd] conditional listen???

[Benjamin <benjamin@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Wot is the default directory into which this IfDefine directive will look for the said script.

I tried all combinations under /home/user/apache/ , /home/user/apache/conf, /home/user/apache/bin/ or the directory from where I call httpd.
the directive inside httpd.conf looks somethign like this:

<IfDefine IPAvailable>
Listen 12.34.56.89:80
</IfDefine>

Unless i specify the complete path in the IfDefine like :
<IfDefine /home/user/apache/IPavailable>
Listen 12.34.56.89:80
</IfDefine>

and also along with the -D option for httpd
ie. httpd -D /home/user/apache/IPavailable

it duz not seem to work.

Shud the script be under the ServerRoot , which is /home/user/apache/ for me.

Is there any way to tell apache to check the existence of the IP, if not
do something else.
    

Not that I know of.  I would simply write a simple script that checked
if the IP was available and started apache with, for example
"apachectl -D IPAvailable".  Then you can include in your config an
<IfDefine IPAvailable> section that will only be used in that case.
