Virtual Hosts Problem - option '-S' to verify your virtual host configuration

Hi,

I'm having some virtual hosts configuration problems. In the httpd.conf, it says "You may use the command
line option '-S' to verify your virtual host
configuration" .  What command do I use with this option '-S' to debug?

Any ideas.

Thanks in advance.
Mary

RE: Virtual Hosts Problem - option '-S' to verify yourvirtual host configuration

#/etc/init.d/httpd -S
Usage: httpd {start|stop|restart|condrestart|reload|status|fullstatus|graceful|help|configtest}

It returned that usage comment.  Am I missing something here?

Thanks in advance.

/etc/init.d/httpd is not the apache web server, it's some startup script
provided by your distribution.  You probably want to find and run
"apachectl".

This looks debian-ish. Run apache2ctl -S instead.

Re: Re: Virtual Hosts Problem - option '-S' to verify yourvirtual host configuration

Hello,

/etc/init.d/httpd is the startup/stop script for http deamon. It can be used to verify the configuration files.

Configuration files can be tested through the following
/usr/sbin/httpd -S
/usr/sbin/apachectl -S

These 2 are the binaries of the web server. I personally recommend you to use apachectl since it has more options that httpd. Try man apachectl for more information.

You are confusing the init script with the executable...

RE: Virtual Hosts Problem - option '-S' to verify yourvirtual host configuration

Thanks for those who responded to my question.
I was able to get the information by using
/usr/sbin/http -S    and
apachectl -S

BTW - I noticed that when I post a real short question, I receive more responses .
