Server::Control::Apache is a subclass of Server::Control for Apache httpd processes. It has the same basic function as apachectl, only with a richer feature set.
This module has an associated script, apachectlp, which you may want to use instead.
In addition to the constructor options described in Server::Control:
An alias for "binary_path" in Server::Control, left in for backward compatibility.
Path to conf file. Will try to use "server_root" in Server::Control/conf/httpd.conf if server_root was specified and conf_file was not. Throws an error if it cannot be determined.
Don't attempt to parse the httpd.conf; only look at values passed in the usual ways.
This module can usually determine "bind_addr" in Server::Control, "error_log" in Server::Control, "pid_file" in Server::Control, and "port" in Server::Control by parsing the conf file. However, if the parsing doesn't work or you wish to override certain values, you can pass them in manually.
The following methods are supported in addition to those described in Server::Control:
If server is not running, then start it. Otherwise, gracefully restart the server - see http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/stopping.html. You can assign this to "restart_method" in Server::Control.
Gracefully stop the server - see http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/stopping.html
