To reload the Apache HTTPD configuration file without restarting the Apache service, you can use the apachectl
command with the -k graceful
option.
Here is an example of using the apachectl
command to gracefully reload the Apache HTTPD configuration file:
sudo apachectl -k graceful
This command will reload the Apache HTTPD configuration file without interrupting any active connections or requests.
Keep in mind that the exact syntax and options for the apachectl
command may vary depending on your specific Apache installation and configuration. It is always a good idea to refer to the official Apache documentation for detailed instructions and further information.
