I also don't know if the Windows Service version can do the equivalent of the "graceful" or "reload" options. I think it just stops the entire service and restarts it.On Mon, Mar 23, 2009 at 1:37 AM, ken <kenbeinside@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote:hi, I'm using Apache 2.2 in Windows2003 Server. After i change the configuration file. it takes a very long time during Apache restart . Is there any way to reload configuration file without restart Apache? Any help will be appreciate.You can try "graceful" instead of "restart" as the argument to apachectl, but I don't know that that will be any faster. My guess is parsing the config file is what's taking so long.
Addendum : This page (which I strongly advise the OP to read in full) : http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/platform/windows.html has this to say :You can also restart a running service and force it to reread its configuration file by using:
httpd.exe -k restart So maybe to OP could try that and see if it is faster ? --------------------------------------------------------------------- The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.
