Sure, it's weird to have it in backticks, but it DOES seem to work, as the subshell invoked with the backticks will exit with the correct error code. > After fixing this, I also noticed and added a fix for bug 290060, which > is that `apache2 -k stop' is being called inside this if statement > instead of `apache2ctl -k stop'. "apache2ctl stop" just calls "apache2 -k stop" anyway, but I agree that the init script should be consistent in calling apache2ctl everywhere, rather than apache2ctl sometimes, and apache2 directly at other times. ...
