I'm aware that /usr/local/apache/bin/apachectl is not an init.d script. I stipulated this :)
Given: % ls -ld /etc/rc.d/rc3.d/S85httpd lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 31 Feb 13 14:33 /etc/rc.d/rc3.d/S85httpd -> /usr/local/apache/bin/apachectl Nothing I can tell has changed from what I did in 7.3 to what I'm doing in 8.0. This is a cookbook method I've seen in several guides. Robert, I will try your suggestions in your followup post. Also I have not changed a line of code in apachectl. It is apachectl from a typical build of Apache. Could this be a permissions issues I have overlooked? % ls -ld /etc/rc.d/rc3.d/S85httpd lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 31 Feb 13 14:33 /etc/rc.d/rc3.d/S85httpd -> /usr/local/apache/bin/apachectl % ls -ld /usr/local/apache/bin/apachectl -rwxr-xr-x 1 apache apache 31 Feb 13 12:28 /usr/local/apache/bin/apachectl I can't see it. apachectl is 755 and should be executable during init; I think, I concede to more knowledgable persons.
