Description Sasha Polonsky 2006-02-20 07:23:13 UTC

I have emerged "=net-www/apache-1.3.34-r11" and found out that
apachectl shell script produces the following error message:

karl etc # apachectl configtest
fopen: No such file or directory
apache: could not open document config file /etc/apache/apache.conf
karl etc #

It seems that after a change in apache config files layout the developers
have forgotten to adjust /usr/sbin/apachectl shell script to new layout.
Of course I can check apache config by the command /etc/init.d/apache configtest
(which works), but I used to use apachectl because it is OS-independent, and
I work with apache not only on Linux, but on FreeBSD and OpenBSD too.

To workaround this bug, I have changed the HTTPD variable in apachectl script
from "/usr/sbin/apache" to "/usr/sbin/apache -f /etc/apache/httpd.conf", but
I think you developers can design a better fix for the bug. My emerge --info 
follows.
