What do you mean by "error message"?
I get:
httpd: illegal option -- ?
Usage: 1.3/src/httpd [-d directory] [-f file]
[-C "directive"] [-c "directive"]
[-v] [-V] [-h] [-l] [-S] [-t]
Options:
-d directory : specify an alternate initial ServerRoot
-f file : specify an alternate ServerConfigFile
-C "directive" : process directive before reading config files
-c "directive" : process directive after reading config files
-v : show version number
-V : show compile settings
-h : list available configuration directives
-l : list compiled-in modules
-S : show parsed settings (currently only vhost settings)
-t : run syntax test for configuration files only
Which gives the exact output that you want from -? except for the first
line saying "illegal option" which is arguable. I think that is by
design.
