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.
I think you are a little confused.
You need to write a script that checks to see whether the IP address
is available. Then at the end of this script, you start apache as
follows (using pseudo-code):
if the IP address is available
apachectl -D IPavailable
else
apachectl
end
The <IfDefine IPavailable> block does not run a script. It simply
checks to see whether a particular variable (IPavailable) was passed
on the command line when apache was started. It is your
responsibility to pass that variable conditional on the availability
of the IP address.
