Starting and Stopping Apache Server

This section describes how to start and stop the Apache server using start and stop scripts. Windows Task Manager can also be used to stop the Apache server.

1. The normal way to stop the Apache server is to use Apache server control scripts. Click Start > All Programs > Apache HTTP Server 2.2 C:herong> Control Apache Server > Stop. The Apache server will be stopped.

2. The normal way to stop the Apache server is also to use Apache server control scripts. Click Start > All Programs > Apache HTTP Server 2.2 C:herong> Control Apache Server > Start. The Apache server will be started.

3. A quick way to know if the Apache server is running or not is to use Windows Task Manager. Run Windows Task Manager, and click the Processes tab. If you see "httpd.exe" is listed as a running process, you know that your Apache server is running.

4. Of course, Windows Task Manager can also be used to stop the Apache server. Select "httpd.exe" on Processes tab on Windows Task Manager, and click the "End Process" button. Then click "Yes" on the warning message to terminate "httpd.exe". Repeat the process again if see more than one instances of "httpd.exe".
