If there's a replacement process, it inherits the old configuration, not the one that's currently on-disk. - To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@httpd.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@httpd.apache.org

Re: [users@httpd] Does Apache do a "graceful" automatically over time?
Eric, as always, thanks for replying. I think logrotate is the likely culprit. Looking at apachectl status it doesn’t do a stop start, since no indication of an overnight restart. So I assume a “graceful” on Linux Thanks again for the help Sent from my iPad On Mar 27, 2019, at 5:21 PM, Eric Covener wrote: >> Does Apache do a "graceful" restart automatically over time? > > No. Some likely culprits: logrotate (not to be confused with > rotatelogs) or third-party control panels that manage your webserver > config.

No. Some likely culprits: logrotate (not to be confused with rotatelogs) or third-party control panels that manage your webserver config. Or an unplanned reboot which would not really be a graceful restart but a stop/start. - To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@httpd.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@httpd.apache.org
[users@httpd] Does Apache do a "graceful" automatically over time?
As always, a "thank you" to everyone that works on Apache. Some background and resultant question ... We had made some changes in the afternoon to some virtual host configs that we intended to implement the next morning with a graceful restart of Apache. That was going to be coordinated with a restart of php-fm which had to be done before the graceful of Apache Anyway, the next morning the sites utilizing PHP were getting a 503 error before we restarted anything. It seems as though Apache must have implemented the virtual host config changes sometime between the previous afternoon and the next morning. But no one had manually done the graceful. Does Apache do a "graceful" restart automatically over time?
