Description Shevek 2003-03-09 11:50:40 UTC 
apachectl configtest is an invaluable tool. /etc/init.d/apache does not provide
this functionality. apachectl should be made to test apache appropriately by
reading the -D options from /etc/conf.d/apache.

Modify the /usr/sbin/apachectl script to read:

. /etc/conf.d/apache
HTTPD="/usr/sbin/apache ${APACHE_OPTS}"

instead of whatever it said before.

this would also fix the `/etc/init.d/apache restart` problem

Comment 4 SpanKY gentoo-dev 2003-03-09 18:05:18 UTC 
ok, so the bug has been fixed :P

the old versions just ran `apachectl restart` so apache wouldnt recognize
conf.d settings
