$sudo ps ax | grep httpd $sudo kill "lowest httpd process id goes here" $sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 startOr, since it looks like /var/run/httpd.pid contains only the pid of the first (lowest numbered process) httpd process you may have luck just creating the httpd.pid file with the lowest numbered process id form the ps command with proper owner/group/permissions and use your scripts to restart apache2.
$sudo echo "lowest httpd process id goes here" > /var/run/httpd.pid $sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restartThis seemed like a simple enough question for someone like me to offer a little help.
That said I'd be more concerned about why files are missing. //Brad On Aug 27, 2008, at 4:41 AM, export@xxxxxxx wrote:
Is there a way how to restart Apache if pid file is missing?I use my own demon.It happened that the demon deleted /var/run/ apache2.pid file.Then I can not use /etc/init.d/apache2 restart but I must restart my Debian server by init 6 . After that the Apache starts normally. So, if the init 6 can solve the problem ,is there a way how to restart Apache without restarting the server( Debian box)Thank you for help L.a. ---------------------------------------------------------------------The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.See <URL:http://httpd.apache.org/userslist.html> for more info.
