[users@httpd] Shutting down Apache 2.0.48

["BARBERA Florian (CIMPA)" <Fl...@airbus.com>]

Hi,

I'm working on a professionnal application that needs to launch Apache on
different windows platforms (98, NT, 2000, XP). On the documentation I see
that I should be able to stop Apache using Apache -k shutdown in console
mode. But it does not work... And I do not have to use Apache as a service
because og Win 98.

What's more I didn't find this bug on the Apache bug report site. 

I know that I'm not the only one that has the problem. Does someone have a
solution to fix it, knowing that i cannot send a Control C signal to my
process...

Do you know if the Apache fundation works on the problem ?

Thanks,

Florian Barbera

Windows Scripting should do this.

ScriptCenter

On Windows 9X one will need to
kill all the Apache processes and the
command line (command prompt or
command.com) window process that
started the Apache Windows web server.

Try these:

If the Windows OS is Window9x or Windows
NT 4.0, one might need to (re)install the WMI
core. All the other Windows OS versions already
have WMI installed.

WMI CORE 1.5 for Windows NT 4.0
