Re: [users@httpd] Apache starting with more child processes thatn startservers directive

["sharath reddy" <reddy.web@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi joshua,

 

i am just starting one instance only, even then it is showing 3*StartServers processes and one parent process running. if i starts 3 instances, it is showing 3*StartServers for every idividual instance.

 

here is my directory structure....

 

build: /opt/apache2 --> here is goes all the stuf including ...

bin, build, cgi-bin, conf.example, error, htdocs, icons, include, lib, logs, Makefile, man, manual, modules

 

(installation)server root: /opt/web/apache  --> here .....

bin, cgi-bin, conf(httpd1.conf, httpd2.conf, httpd3.conf), docroot, log, modules, run,  scripts, ssl

 

i wrote a script which calls the httpd multiple times with one config file for each port
(script goes like ...... /opt/apache2/bin/apachectl -f /opt/web/apache/conf/httpd1.conf -k start,
and ..... httpd2.conf -k start..... httpd3.conf -k start) , and it just seems to be working.

 

Thanks,

Sharath

Well, there are still lots of details missing in this question.  If
you are starting 3 instances of apache, you should expect
3*StartServers processes to be running.  The three instances will be
entirely independent.  If that is not what you are seeing, you need to
be more specific about your problem.
