Package: apache2-common Severity: important
In /etc/init.d/apache2, when a reload is requested (as is the case from the package manager during upgrades ) ALL files in /etc/apache2 are greped for a line begining with "^PidFile". If there was some file with a name like config.old that had a line that began with PidFile, it would be used. More importantly, some servers have lots of BIG log file in /etc/apache2/logs, left over from an earlier standard, and all of those log files are searched entirely for lines begining with PidFile. This takes A VERY LONG TIME, and caused great anxiety to the poor sysadmin running a live server and waiting to breath again when the server has successfully restarted. -- System Information: Debian Release: 3.1 Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.8-3-686 Locale: LANG=en_US, LC_CTYPE=en_US (charmap=ISO-8859-1) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
