Can't they just get along and make some uniformity between them? What could EVER be useful about using two different names for one and the same daemon?Sure.The next step would be to ask them to all put the DocumentRoot under /var/www, instead of /srv/www sometimes. Then the next step would be to ask to agree on a structure for the config files under /etc/apache2 .. ooops /etc/httpd, so that one doesn't use sites-available while the other uses vhosts.d. Then we could also ask the Apache foundation to tell the Apache packagers for Windows to stop this nonsense of using install directory names with spaces, like C:/Program Files/Apache Software Foundation/.. etc.. Whatever was wrong with C:/apache ?Hopeless, I'm afraid.
Perhaps not ... if we create a standard then we request that the distributions follow it. It's not just apache - php has exactly the same problem and increase the number of combinations one has to deal with :(
Of cause simply moving them back to where YOU want them is not actually a problem, since on the whole one only has to edit the config files?
