Solaris

Hello, I want to run 2 apaches simultaneusly in a system, one operating with port 80 and the other one with 85, i already have the configuration files ready and i tryed something i saw in a manual, like this:

first i start apache as normal:

/usr/local/etc/httpd/bin/apachectl start

the i try to start a second instance with another directory like this:

/usr/local/etc/httpd/bin/httpd -d /sistemas/cencar.httpd

or pointing to the httpd.conf file:

/usr/local/etc/httpd/bin/httpd -f /sistemas/cencar.httpd/conf/httpd.conf


all of them work fine, except they dont work simultaneously, i can start either one or another but not 2 at the same time, after i started the first apache i try to start the second, i type the command and nothing happens, no error messages and it doesnt start... does anyone know what wrong with this?

thanks.

Tony.

edit: woops, I forgot, its apache 1.3.9 , the OS is Solaris 9

Take a look at Multiple Versions of Apache - should help even if it isn't on Solaris.

Thanks, i just changed a few things in the httpd.conf file, it appears you have to rename the log files and the pid file of the second apache you want to start so its different from the ones already running, and it worked all right.

Thanks!!!
