Bug#497735: /etc/init.d/apache2 stop failed
Package: apache2
Severity: normal
On a system with apache2, and only apache2, the stop command to the init
script failed. After some poking around, I found that the stop
subroutine was calling apache2 -k to stop, not apache2ctl.
Apache2ctl sets some environment vars (by sourcing /etc/apache2/envvars), one of which is necessary for the
call to apache2 -k to succeed. Changing the call (s, IIRC, there were 2)
in the init script fixed the problem.
