Restarting Your Web Server


It may be necessary to occasionally restart your Virtual Private Server Apache Web Server. For example, you may wish to restart after making web server configuration additions or modifications, or to correct any problems the web server may be experiencing.

Any time you make changes to your web server configuration file (/www/conf/httpd.conf) you will need to manually restart your web server, it is easily done. Simply connect to your Virtual Private Server via SSH, su to root, and execute the following command:
# restart_apache
All active web server processes will be killed, and new web server processes will be started.
