+
+ <p><code>apachectl</code> is a front end to the Apache HyperText
+ Transfer Protocol (HTTP) server. It is designed to help the
+ administrator control the functioning of the Apache
+ <code class="program"><a href="../programs/httpd.html">httpd</a></code> daemon.</p>
+
+ <p>The <code>apachectl</code> script can operate in two modes.
+ First, it can act as a simple front-end to the <code class="program"><a href="../programs/httpd.html">httpd</a></code>
+ command that simply sets any necessary environment variables and
+ then invokes <code class="program"><a href="../programs/httpd.html">httpd</a></code>, passing through any command line
+ arguments. Second, <code>apachectl</code> can act as a SysV init
+ script, taking simple one-word arguments like <code>start</code>,
+ <code>restart</code>, and <code>stop</code>, and translating them
+ into appropriate signals to <code class="program"><a href="../programs/httpd.html">httpd</a></code>.</p>
+
+ <p>If your Apache installation uses non-standard paths, you will
+ need to edit the <code>apachectl</code> script to set the
+ appropriate paths to the <code class="program"><a href="../programs/httpd.html">httpd</a></code> binary. You can also
+ specify any necessary <code class="program"><a href="../programs/httpd.html">httpd</a></code> command line arguments.
+ See the comments in the script for details.</p>
+
+ <p>The <code>apachectl</code> script returns a 0 exit value on
+ success, and &gt;0 if an error occurs. For more details, view
+ the comments in the script.</p>

+are defined on the <code class="program"><a href="../programs/httpd.html">httpd</a></code> manual page.</p>
+
+<dl>
+
+<dt><code>start</code></dt>
+
+<dd>Start the Apache <code class="program"><a href="../programs/httpd.html">httpd</a></code> daemon. Gives an error if it
+is already running. This is equivalent to <code>apachectl -k
+start</code>.</dd>
+
+<dt><code>stop</code></dt>
+
+<dd>Stops the Apache <code class="program"><a href="../programs/httpd.html">httpd</a></code> daemon. This is equivalent to
+<code>apachectl -k stop</code>.</dd>
+
+<dt><code>restart</code></dt>
+
+<dd>Restarts the Apache <code class="program"><a href="../programs/httpd.html">httpd</a></code> daemon. If the daemon is
+not running, it is started. This command automatically checks the
+configuration files as in <code>configtest</code> before initiating
+the restart to make sure the daemon doesn't die. This is equivalent
+to <code>apachectl -k restart</code>.</dd>
+
+<dt><code>fullstatus</code></dt>
+
+<dd>Displays a full status report from <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_status.html">mod_status</a></code>.
+For this to work, you need to have <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_status.html">mod_status</a></code> enabled
+on your server and a text-based browser such as <code>lynx</code>
+available on your system. The URL used to access the status report
+can be set by editing the <code>STATUSURL</code> variable in the
+script.</dd>
+
+<dt><code>status</code></dt>
+
+<dd>Displays a brief status report. Similar to the
+<code>fullstatus</code> option, except that the list of requests
+currently being served is omitted.</dd>
+
+<dt><code>graceful</code></dt>
+
+<dd>Gracefully restarts the Apache <code class="program"><a href="../programs/httpd.html">httpd</a></code> daemon. If the
+daemon is not running, it is started. This differs from a normal
+restart in that currently open connections are not aborted. A side
+effect is that old log files will not be closed immediately. This
+means that if used in a log rotation script, a substantial delay may
+be necessary to ensure that the old log files are closed before
+processing them. This command automatically checks the configuration
+files as in <code>configtest</code> before initiating the
+restart to make sure Apache doesn't die. This is equivalent to
+<code>apachectl -k graceful</code>.</dd>
+
+<dt><code>graceful-stop</code></dt>
+
+<dd>Gracefully stops the Apache <code class="program"><a href="../programs/httpd.html">httpd</a></code> daemon.
+This differs from a normal stop in that currently open connections are not
+aborted. A side effect is that old log files will not be closed immediately.
+This is equivalent to <code>apachectl -k graceful-stop</code>.</dd>
+
+<dt><code>configtest</code></dt>
+
+<dd>Run a configuration file syntax test. It parses the configuration
+files and either reports <code>Syntax Ok</code>
+or detailed information about the particular syntax error. This is
+equivalent to <code>apachectl -t</code>.</dd>
+
+</dl>
+
+<p>The following option was available in earlier versions but has been removed.</p>
+
+<dl>
+
+<dt><code>startssl</code></dt>
+
+<dd>To start <code class="program"><a href="../programs/httpd.html">httpd</a></code> with SSL support, you should edit
+your configuration file to include the relevant directives and then
+use the normal <code>apachectl start</code>.</dd>
+
+</dl>
