Using redhat-config-httpd with another apache.

[chris]

Hi everyone, I am wanting to use the redhat-config-httpd with another 
Apache that I have installed and am using on my system is there any way 
I can point it to the other Apache?

First, I would like to suggest that you change your system time to
something other than 1999.  :)  That way I don't have to go all the way
to the top to view these.

Second, are you asking to configure a second copy of apache on your
machine?  Or just one not in the standard FC2 location?

Sorry about that this machine's bios is fried and keeps reverting back 
to 1999. Any how I don't use the default apache that comes with Fedora. 
So I have that shutoff and have another copy of apache installed else 
where that I am using. I still want to be able to use the 
redhat-config-httpd even thought I can do it manually it would be easier 
to use the GUI. Is there any way to point the config GUI to my separate 
httpd.conf?

This may be completely off the wall, but can't you just pretend to 
configure the apache on your machine and then just transfer the 
resulting httpd.conf file over to the other machine?

That would be my first and safest thought.  Note that only a single
depth backup is made so make your own.

Since the tool is python it is not insane to copy or modify the
python.

A minor bit of grep and find and I see:
     ## File generated automatically by genClass.py
     ## Do not edit this file directly.
     ....
    ./ApacheBase.py:   rmd5 = hexstr (md5 (open ('/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf',
'r').read ()).digest())
    ./ApacheBase.py:     os.remove ('/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf.bak')
    ./ApacheBase.py:     os.rename ('/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf',
'/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf.bak')
    ./ApacheBase.py:     open ('/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf', 'w').write
(result)

There is no magic $HTTPDCONF but it looks very possible in an open source world to
change...
Just do a bit of digging... and do not ignore the pile of handy documents.

Hi,  I was reading the thread and wanted to check out those files but 
found they did't exist on my computer. Are they in a documentaion package?

$  rpm -q --whatprovides /usr/share/doc/redhat-config-httpd/html/intro.html

  redhat-config-httpd-1.1.0-5

$ rpm -q --whatprovides /usr/share/doc/tux-3.2.18/tux/configuration.html

  tux-3.2.18-1

So try:

   up2date install redhat-config-httpd
   up2date install tux
